Digital asset investment product flows cooled off, with relatively minor outflows totalling US$11.2. This run of negative sentiment over the last 7 weeks now totals US$342m. Year-to-date digital asset investment products remain in a net inflow position totalling US$165m, with the year so far beset with large gyrations of investor flows, very much driven by the hopes and concerns for regulation on digital assets. Last week exemplified this, beginning the week investors had high hopes for a spot ETF approval in the US, only to be quashed by the announcement of a delay for all other spot ETF applications. Despite little activity on flows, trading volumes were much higher than average, totalling US$2.8bn for the week, 90% above the YTD average.
