In contrast, multi-asset investments and Bitcoin topped the inflows with $17.9 million and $10 million, respectively. Short Bitcoin recorded an outflow of $4.2 million last week, suggesting a shift in sentiment. Despite the positive cryptocurrency market outlook this year, blockchain entities have suffered outflows of $545 million, representing 19% of Assets under Management (AuM).
The United States led regional inflows with $43 million for the week, alongside Australia and Brazil, which had positive inflows of $2.9 million and $7.6 million, respectively. On the other hand, Germany and Canada saw substantial outflows, losing $28.5 million and $14.4 million, respectively, for the week.
