Digital asset investment funds experienced a significant influx of $2.7 billion in the past week, marking an impressive continuation of an 11-week growth period that has accumulated a total of $16.9 billion.
Key Highlights:
Digital asset funds have recorded inflows of $2.7 billion last week, maintaining an ongoing 11-week trend. The United States led this surge with $2.65 billion in inflows, with Bitcoin capturing 83% of the total allocations. Additionally, Bitcoin ETFs surpassed gold ETFs, pulling in $3 billion while gold ETFs faced outflows of $1 billion over five days.
This robust response from investors underscores a strong appetite for digital assets, mirroring the exceptional performance noted in the first half of 2024, where inflows reached $18.3 billion by the end of June, according to a report released on Monday by CoinShares. The report linked this sustained interest to escalating geopolitical tensions and ongoing uncertainties related to monetary policy.
US Leading in Crypto Fund Inflows
The majority of the influx originated from the United States, which contributed $2.65 billion. Meanwhile, Switzerland and Germany saw minor increases of $23 million and $19.8 million, respectively. In contrast, countries including Canada, Hong Kong, and Brazil experienced slight outflows.
Hong Kong has particularly faced a consistent trend of outflows, totaling $132 million in June alone, following recent price surges. Bitcoin remained the primary beneficiary, attracting $2.2 billion last week—accounting for 83% of the total inflows. This trend is further illustrated by short-Bitcoin products extending their year-to-date outflows to $12 million, signaling widespread optimism regarding Bitcoin’s future performance.
Ethereum attracted $429 million in inflows, raising its annual total to $2.9 billion. In contrast, Solana has garnered only $91 million so far this year, highlighting a stark disparity in investor confidence among these assets.
Moreover, Bitcoin ETFs are outpacing gold ETFs, with $3 billion in inflows compared to $1 billion in outflows for gold ETFs over five days, indicating a shift in investor preference toward digital assets as a hedge against traditional U.S. assets.

The escalating interest in spot Bitcoin ETFs comes amid a wave of corporate adoption, despite existing macroeconomic uncertainties. Anthony Pompliano’s ProCap BTC recently acquired 3,724 Bitcoin for $386 million as it prepares for a public listing via a SPAC merger. Simultaneously, Japan’s Metaplanet raised $517.8 million on the first day of its ambitious “555 Million Plan,” which aims to secure 210,000 Bitcoin by 2027.
Bitcoin Defies June Trend as Tax Bill Spurs Optimism
Bitcoin has broken away from its usual June slump with an early rally in Asian markets, aligning with equity markets that reached new highs last week. This surge has been driven by renewed optimism stemming from former President Trump’s $4.5 trillion tax proposal, which is making progress in the Senate, as noted in a recent analysis by QCP Capital.
Attention is now focused on a crucial vote scheduled for 9 am ET today, as Republicans push to finalize the deal ahead of the July 4 deadline. “With BTC spot approaching $108k, we’re starting to witness a buildup in leveraged longs, as perpetual funding rates shift from flat to positive on major exchanges,” QCP stated on Monday.
“Market participants seem to be positioning themselves for directional bets ahead of the quarter’s end.” Meanwhile, Ethereum and Solana have experienced gains fueled by anticipation that staking ETFs for ETH and SOL from REX Shares may receive approval from the SEC, presenting institutions with new opportunities to earn crypto returns.
