  • The four-week run of inflows now totals $345 million, said CoinShares.

    CoinShares called the focus on bitcoin-related products “a flight to safety by investors fearful of the ongoing traditional finance challenges.”

    Ether-related products had only $300,000 of net inflows last week, even as the successful completion of the Shanghai upgrade led to a surge in that crypto’s price to above $2,000 for the first time since August 2022.

    Blockchain-related equities garnered a net $5.8 million in inflows last week, according to the report, pushing total assets under management to $1.9 billion, the highest since October 2022 - prior to the collapse of crypto exchange FTX.
