Amid this remarkable weekly inflow recorded, Bitcoin appears to be leading the pack with $2.89 billion in inflows. Other altcoins followed with Binance coin, Litecoin, Short Bitcoin, and Cardano, following BTC’s lead.

A Closer Look Into The Report

Digital asset investment products witnessed a notable surge in weekly inflows, per a report, surpassing the ATH of $2.7 billion this week to reach $2.9 billion. This comes riding the market sentiments of buy-the-dip, as investors poured substantial funds into the digital currency market amid the recent crypto market crash, resulting from massive selloffs.

Meanwhile, these inflows helped the year-to-date totals scale new heights, reaching $13.2 billion and topping the entire 2021 inflow of $10.6 billion. Whereas, trading volumes stood at $43 billion this week, which is in line with the previous week’s records and accounts for 47% of global Bitcoin volumes.

Global exchange-traded products (ETPs) surpassed the $100 billion mark for the first time this week, although it rested at $97 billion soon after, mirroring a correction witnessed at the week’s end. In the interim, in terms of regional trends, the U.S. led with $2.95 billion in inflows, with minor inflows observed in Australia, Brazil, and Hong Kong. Contrastingly, Canada, Germany, Sweden, and Switzerland collectively experienced $78 million in outflows, adding up to this year’s not-so-good start as outflows burgeoned phenomenally.
