Digital assets continue to attract strong investor interest, with Bitcoin and Ethereum dominating fund inflows over the past week. The latest CoinShares weekly report, reflecting institutional and retail flows across crypto investment products, provides valuable insight into market sentiment as of June 13, 2025.

Bitcoin Remains the Primary Magnet for Capital

For the week ending June 13, net crypto asset inflows totaled $1.92 billion, with Bitcoin alone accounting for $1.325 billion. This confirms the ongoing dominance of Bitcoin in investor portfolios, even amid intermittent volatility. Year-to-date (YTD), Bitcoin has seen $11.45 billion in cumulative inflows, and now manages $153.7 billion in assets under management (AUM).

Investor appetite for Bitcoin has been driven by expectations of a more dovish monetary stance from central banks and cooling inflation data. Additionally, speculation around further approvals of U.S.-based spot ETFs continues to boost institutional participation.

Ethereum Narrowing the Gap

Ethereum also performed strongly, attracting $583.3 million in inflows this week, with monthly flows totaling $879 million so far in June. Since the start of 2025, Ethereum investment products have brought in $2.28 billion, underlining its status as the leading alternative to Bitcoin—especially amid rising activity in the DeFi sector and continued migration to Ethereum 2.0.

Multi-Asset Products See Sustained Outflows

On the downside, multi-asset crypto funds recorded weekly outflows of $14 million, bringing total outflows for the year to $156 million. This trend highlights a growing investor preference for direct exposure to top-tier coins like Bitcoin and Ethereum over broader baskets that include more volatile or less-established tokens such as SUI, Solana, and Cardano.

Altcoins Show Mixed Sentiment

Among the altcoins, Solana, XRP, SUI, and Cardano posted small but positive inflows this week, ranging from $0.4 million to $11.8 million, with XRP standing out with $206 million in YTD inflows. However, others such as Chainlink and Short Bitcoin have seen persistent outflows this year—$121 million and $7 million respectively—reflecting continued caution among investors toward leveraged or niche instruments.

Chainlink’s performance, in particular, highlights fading short-term confidence, while Litecoin remains stagnant with nearly flat flows, adding just $0.1 million this week.

Year-to-Date Trend Remains Positive Despite Volatility

Despite some negative weeks earlier in the year, the overall 2025 trajectory remains robust. Cumulative inflows into digital asset products now total $13.2 billion, while $48.4 billion has entered the space so far this calendar year. Total crypto assets under management now stand at $179.1 billion, reflecting growing confidence across both institutional and retail segments.

Outlook: Renewed Bullish Momentum or Temporary Spike?

This week’s data may signal a shift toward renewed momentum as the crypto market enters the summer months. If global monetary easing persists and inflation continues to cool, cryptocurrencies could benefit from a surge in inflows—especially from institutional investors seeking yield alternatives in a low real-rate environment.

However, challenges remain. Market volatility, ongoing regulatory uncertainty, and the return of leveraged products could limit upside potential in the near term.
