Apart from the overall inflows, CoinShares also highlighted that almost all providers of crypto ETPs saw inflows in the first week of June. The asset manager described the pattern as unusual and shared that it may be a response to weaker macro data. CoinShares wrote:“We believe this turnaround in sentiment is a direct response to weaker than expected macro data in the U.S., bringing forward monetary policy rate cut expectations.”
The asset manager added that positive price action pushed the total assets under management (AUM) to rise above $100 billion for the first time since March 2024.Flows by provider in millions. Source: CoinShares
Among the digital asset investment product providers, only Grayscale Investments and CoinShares XBT recorded outflows for the week.
