Cryptocurrency exchange-traded products (ETPs) continued to see modest inflows last week, extending a reversal from a record-breaking streak of outflows.

Global crypto ETPs posted $226 million in inflows in the last trading week, adding to the prior week’s $644 million inflows, CoinShares reported on March 31.

Despite the two-week positive trend after a five-week outflow streak, total assets under management (AUM) continued to decline, dropping below $134 million by March 28.

Last week’s inflows suggest positive but cautious investor behavior amid core Personal Consumption Expenditures in the US coming in above expectations, CoinShares’ head of research James Butterfill said.

Bitcoin leads weekly inflows

Bitcoin (BTC) investment products attracted the majority of inflows, totaling $195 million for the week, while short-BTC investment products saw outflows for the fourth consecutive week, totaling $2.5 million.

Altcoins, in aggregate, saw a first week of inflows totaling $33 million, following four consecutive weeks of outflows totaling $1.7 billion.

Among individual altcoins, Ether (ETH) saw $14.5 million in inflows. Solana (SOL), XRP (XRP) and Sui (SUI) followed with $7.8 million, $4.8 million and $4 million, respectively.

AUM drops to lowest level in 2025 amid price slump

Despite recent inflows, crypto ETPs have failed to trigger a reversal in terms of total AUM.

Since March 10, the total crypto ETP AUM dropped 5.7% from 142 billion, amounting to 133.9 billion as of March 28, the lowest level in 2025.

According to CoinShares’ Butterfill, the AUM decline could be attributed to a slump in cryptocurrency prices.

“Recent price falls have pushed Bitcoin global ETPs’ total assets under management to their lowest level since just after the US election at $114 billion,” Butterfill wrote.
