Digital asset investment products took in $287 million last week, ending an eight-week run of withdrawals that drained a record $8 billion, CoinShares said. A second burst followed, with $415 million flowing in across Tuesday and Wednesday, mainly into Bitcoin.
Why it matters
The reversal came after softer-than-expected US CPI and PPI readings shifted rate expectations and restored demand for crypto funds. The response shows how closely institutional Bitcoin positioning remains tied to inflation data and the monetary-policy outlook.
Market impact
CoinShares still expects BTC to trade in a range. It sees a move above $80,000 as unlikely without a clearer change in monetary-policy expectations, making the new inflows a firmer floor rather than confirmation of an upside breakout.
