Digital asset inflows hit $226M last week amid cautious optimism and U.S. Fed uncertainty

Digital asset investment products saw $226 million in inflows last week, signaling cautious optimism among investors, according to CoinShares' weekly fund flow report. This follows a record outflow and nine straight trading days of inflows, except for a $74 million outflow on March 28, likely due to hotter-than-expected U.S. core PCE data raising concerns about the U.S. Fed’s stance. The U.S. led regional inflows with $204 million, followed by Switzerland ($14.7 million) and Germany ($9.2 million), while Hong Kong and Brazil saw small outflows. Bitcoin accounted for $195 million in inflows, while short-Bitcoin products saw $2.5 million in outflows for the fourth week in a row. Altcoins saw $33 million in inflows—the first inflow in five weeks—with Ethereum, Solana, XRP and Sui leading the gains.
