Crypto asset investment products experienced significant outflows last week, according to the latest fund flows report<\/a> from CoinShares. The report revealed that outflows totaled $508 million, bringing the cumulative two-week outflows to $924 million.<\/p>\n

These recent trends follow an 18-week streak of inflows that had accumulated $29 billion. CoinShares attributes this reversal to cautionary investor behavior amid macroeconomic uncertainty<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Altcoins Buck the Trend as XRP Leads Inflows<\/h2>\n

Despite the broader outflows, altcoins saw continued interest from investors. XRP particularly led the inflows with $38.3 million, continuing a strong trend since mid-November.<\/p>\n

According to the CoinShares report, XRP has now recorded $819 million in cumulative inflows, reflecting optimism among investors that the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)\u2019s lawsuit against the cryptocurrency may be resolved favorably<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Other altcoins followed suit, with Solana, Ethereum, and Sui posting inflows of $8.9 million, $3.7 million, and $1.47 million, respectively. Bitcoin, however, bore the brunt of the outflows, with $571 million leaving Bitcoin-focused investment products.<\/p>\n

\"Crypto<\/p>\n

Interestingly, some investors increased their exposure to short-Bitcoin positions, which saw inflows of $2.8 million. This divergence in investor sentiment between Bitcoin and certain altcoins highlights the nuanced dynamics at play in the crypto investment space<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Notably, while altcoins managed to buck the outflow trend which affected Bitcoin, same can\u2019t be said concerning price performance. Over the past weeks, not only BTC has faced a bearish trend other altcoins have also faced their share of decline.<\/p>\n

\"Bitcoin<\/p>\n

For instance, while Bitcoin dropped by 0.8% in the past week, Ethereum, XRP and Solana has plunged by 3.2%, 7.6% and 14.3% respectively over the same period. This decrease in each of these cryptocurrencies has led to several breach of key support levels.<\/p>\n

At the time of writing, BTC trades at $95,567 down by 0.5% in the past day. Ethereum trades at $2,674 dropping by 4.9% in the past 24 hours. XRP also currently trades at $2.48 recording a 3.5% in the past day, Solana at $158 with a 6.8% drop while Sui at $3.17 decreasing 6% in value over the same period.<\/p>\n

Regional Trend And Reason Behind The Crypto Funds Outflow<\/h2>\n

Commenting on the fund outflows, James Butterfill, Head of Research at CoinShares, noted:<\/p>\n

\n

\u00a0We believe investors are exercising caution following the US Presidential inauguration and the consequent uncertainty around trade tariffs, inflation and monetary policy.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Butterfill added that trading turnover also declined substantially, falling from $22 billion two weeks ago to $13 billion last week. This decrease reflects a more hesitant market sentiment<\/a>, particularly in the US, where outflows were most concentrated.<\/p>\n

The region saw $560 million in outflows, in stark contrast to Europe<\/a>, which continued to record healthy inflows, including $30.5 million from Germany and $15.8 million from Switzerland.<\/p>\n
