Analysts mostly attribute this to the stronger-than-expected US economic data, which pulled down the likelihood of a 50-basis point rate cut by the Federal Reserve. With the central bank closing in on the probable monetary policy switch, the asset class is expected to turn increasingly sensitive to interest rate changes.
The United States was at the helm of this outflow trend with $318 million taken out from various digital asset investment products. Other parts of Europe also saw some outflows, particularly $7.3 million from Germany and $4.3 million in Sweden. Modest inflows into Switzerland and Canada added up to $5.5 mln and $13 mln, respectively, but still indicate that investors are somewhat interested in the markets.
The most significant negative was Bitcoin, posting outflows of $319 million. On the other hand, short Bitcoin investment products attracted investment for their second consecutive week, taking the total inflows to $4.4 million this week- the highest since March this year. This could thus suggest that more and more investors are interested in hedging strategies as they continue to watch prices fall.
Ethereum, meanwhile, saw $5.7 million in outflows, with trading volumes capped at about 15% of their level during the week the U.S. ETFs began trading. This is roughly the same level as volumes ahead of the ETF launches. On the bright side, Solana recorded inflows of $7.6 million, indicating that there’s a fraction of investor confidence in the altcoin.
Conversely, blockchain equities bucked the trend, posting inflows of $11 million, primarily into investment products focused on Bitcoin miners.
