The Cryptocurrency investment ecosystem is experiencing a historic moment. According to a recent report from CoinShares, global crypto asset investment products saw net inflows of $3.2 billion last week, led by growing demand for spot Bitcoin ETFs in the United States. This strong influx reaffirms investors’ enthusiasm for the crypto market, even in a financial environment that demands caution.
A year of historical records
This year’s cumulative net inflows stand at $44.5 billion, marking an absolute record and quadrupling the figures of any other previous year.
This impressive growth underscores interest in crypto products as a viable option to diversify portfolios in an uncertain economic environment.
According to James Butterfill, head of research at CoinShares, trading volumes in exchange-traded products (ETPs) have reached an average of $21 billion weekly, representing 30% of Bitcoin trading on trusted exchanges.
Bitcoin Spot ETFs Dominate the Market
There is no doubt that one of the main driving forces behind this rise is the popularity of spot Bitcoin ETFs in the United States. These products added $2.17 billion in net inflows last week alone, marking their twelfth consecutive day in the black and accumulating $5.3 billion in recent days.
In total, these ETFs have generated $35.8 billion in net inflows since their launch in January, establishing themselves as a key pillar for investors.
According to Bernstein analysts, “demand for Bitcoin ETFs has been relentless,” with weekly inflows exceeding $2 billion in 78% of recent weeks. This phenomenon reflects the perception that Bitcoin is maturing as a financial asset, attracting both institutions and small investors.

Although Bitcoin continues to lead, Ethereum is not far behind either. Funds based on this asset recorded their seventh consecutive week of net inflows, accumulating $3.7 billion during that period. In the last week alone, spot Ethereum ETFs in the United States totaled $854.8 million, extending their positive streak to 15 consecutive days.
This growing interest in Ethereum could be related to a change in investor sentiment towards the network, especially given recent improvements in its scalability and functionality thanks to updates to its technology.
Bitcoin breaks the $106,000 barrier
In addition to record flows into investment products, Bitcoin hit a new all-time high. Last Sunday, the price of the main cryptocurrency surpassed $106,400 before experiencing a slight correction. Currently, it is trading at around $104K, accumulating an impressive growth of more than 150% so far this year.
This bullish momentum is also accompanied by increased strength in the Bitcoin network, with a record level of Mining difficulty reaching 109 trillion on Monday.
The outlook for the cryptocurrency market appears promising, especially with the combination of factors such as Donald Trump’s pro-crypto administration, easing inflation, and a possible reduction in interest rates by the Fed.
An opportunity for the future
The rise of cryptocurrency investment products, combined with the strong performance of assets such as Bitcoin and Ethereum, points to a bullish market that is attracting both individual and institutional investors globally. With more favorable conditions and greater legitimacy through regulated products, the crypto sector could be entering a new era of mass adoption and sustained growth.
In this context, investors must remain attentive to emerging trends in this dynamic market that promises to continue breaking barriers in the near future.
