Digital asset investment products have experienced their largest single-week inflows since July 2022, amounting to $199 million, according to a report.
This surge has nearly offset the outflows observed in the previous nine consecutive weeks, Coinshares stated in a blog post.
The report suggests that this renewed positive sentiment is likely due to recent announcements from prominent Exchange-Traded Product (ETP) issuers that have filed for physically backed ETFs with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
As a result, total assets under management (AUM) have now reached $37 billion, the highest level since before the collapse of 3 Arrows Capital.
Bitcoin BTC/USD emerged as the primary beneficiary of this trend, with inflows of $188 million last week, accounting for 94% of the total flows.

In contrast, short-Bitcoin saw outflows for the ninth consecutive week, totaling $4.9 million.
The cumulative outflows over these nine weeks represent 60% of the total AUM.
Ethereum ETH/USD also saw inflows, albeit at a much lower scale, with $7.8 million, representing just 0.1% of AUM relative to Bitcoin’s inflows at 0.7%.
This suggests that the current appetite for Ethereum is lower than that for Bitcoin.
The shift in sentiment did not significantly impact altcoins, with only minor inflows into Ripple XRP/USD and Solana SOL/USD totaling $0.24 million and $0.17 million respectively.
However, the improved sentiment did prompt some investors to purchase multi-asset investment ETPs, which saw inflows of $8 million last week.
