Digital asset investment products recorded $1.9 billion in inflows last week, marking the 15th consecutive week of net positive flows and driving month-to-date inflows to a record $11.2 billion—significantly surpassing the $7.6 billion seen in December 2024—according to asset manager CoinShares.
Regionally, the United States led with $2.0 billion of inflows, while Germany added $70 million, offsetting outflows from Brazil ($23.2 million), Canada ($84.3 million) and Hong Kong ($160 million).
Ethereum dominated asset-specific flows, attracting $1.59 billion in its second-largest week ever and pushing year-to-date inflows to $7.79 billion, already eclipsing full-year 2024 totals. Bitcoin, by contrast, saw minor outflows of $175 million, underscoring a divergence between the largest two assets.
Among smaller tokens, Solana and XRP drew $311 million and $189 million respectively, with SUI adding $8 million. However, broader altcoin interest was uneven, as Litecoin and Bitcoin Cash experienced modest outflows of $1.2 million and $0.66 million, respectively.
CoinShares believes these selective inflows likely reflect anticipation of select U.S. ETF approvals rather than a broader altcoin season.

The developments come as more companies are shifting to altcoin treasury strategies that mimic what Strategy (MSTR) has done with bitcoin. Notably, bitcoin miner Bit Digital recently made a big pivot into ETH, selling $34 million in BTC for ETH and then quickly buying another $67 million in ETH using proceeds from a direct offering.
