While still the largest among all digital assets, this amount marked a noticeable decline from the $1.5 billion average seen in the <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/crypto-inflows-hit-2-7b-in-one-week-institutions\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">previous three weeks<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The slowdown suggests that investor sentiment toward Bitcoin may be stabilizing or turning cautious as the asset nears its all-time high of above $111,000. The moderation in inflows could reflect profit-taking behavior or reluctance to increase exposure at elevated price levels.<\/p>\n<p>Ethereum, on the other hand, recorded its 11th straight week of inflows, totaling $226 million. Over the 11-week period, Ethereum has attracted roughly $2.85 billion.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-524825 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Screenshot-2025-07-07-at-15.45.51.png?resize=913%2C660\" alt=\"Crypto asset fund flows\" width=\"913\" height=\"660\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Screenshot-2025-07-07-at-15.45.51.png?w=1378 1378w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Screenshot-2025-07-07-at-15.45.51.png?w=581 581w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Screenshot-2025-07-07-at-15.45.51.png?w=768 768w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Screenshot-2025-07-07-at-15.45.51.png?w=913 913w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Screenshot-2025-07-07-at-15.45.51.png?w=120 120w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Screenshot-2025-07-07-at-15.45.51.png?w=750 750w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Screenshot-2025-07-07-at-15.45.51.png?w=1140 1140w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 913px) 100vw, 913px\"><\/p>\n<p>When measured proportionally, inflows into Ethereum products averaged 1.6% of assets under management per week, double the 0.8% average seen for Bitcoin.<\/p>\n<p>This relative strength may signal a shift in preference as Ethereum continues to benefit from Layer 2 expansion, decentralized finance (DeFi) activity, and speculation around broader use cases in tokenization and real-world asset infrastructure.<\/p>\n<h2 data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\">Regional Divergences in Investor Sentiment<\/h2>\n<p>Geographically, the United States dominated inflows with $1 billion, indicating sustained institutional interest possibly driven by regulated spot ETFs and <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/bitcoin-first-musks-political-party-pledge-shakes-up-washington\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">broader macro exposure<\/a> strategies.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-524826 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Screenshot-2025-07-07-at-15.45.51-1.png?resize=913%2C660\" alt=\"Crypto asset fund flows by region. \" width=\"913\" height=\"660\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Screenshot-2025-07-07-at-15.45.51-1.png?w=1378 1378w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Screenshot-2025-07-07-at-15.45.51-1.png?w=581 581w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Screenshot-2025-07-07-at-15.45.51-1.png?w=768 768w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Screenshot-2025-07-07-at-15.45.51-1.png?w=913 913w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Screenshot-2025-07-07-at-15.45.51-1.png?w=120 120w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Screenshot-2025-07-07-at-15.45.51-1.png?w=750 750w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Screenshot-2025-07-07-at-15.45.51-1.png?w=1140 1140w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 913px) 100vw, 913px\"><\/p>\n<p>Europe also contributed to the positive flow, with Germany and Switzerland accounting for $38.5 million and $33.7 million, respectively.
