Bitcoin still attracts the largest share of capital among crypto funds, but the flow has slowed compared to last year.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">So far in 2025, Bitcoin-linked funds have taken in around $27.2Bn.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">That figure sits well below the $41.6Bn recorded over the same period in 2024, pointing to more restrained positioning by investors.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The pullback came as volatility picked up across the wider crypto market.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Between December 15 and December 19, total market capitalization dropped by more than $210Bn as prices across major tokens moved lower.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Since then, conditions have steadied. At the time of writing, total market cap has recovered to roughly $3.03 trillion.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Looking ahead, CoinShares said total inflows into crypto exchange-traded products this year may struggle to top last year\u2019s levels.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Assets under management currently stand at about $46.7Bn, still below the $48.7Bn peak seen in 2024.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">That gap suggests investors remain cautious as the year draws to a close.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Even so, not all parts of the market saw outflows.
