Despite Middle East tensions, $1.2 billion in net inflows into crypto products… 10th consecutive week

According to the latest CoinShares report, global turmoil has not stopped cryptocurrency capital. Despite heightened geopolitical uncertainty, cryptocurrency inflows continue for 10 consecutive weeks, reflecting investors' resilience in the face of volatility.

Meanwhile, tensions in the Middle East are increasing volatility, with major powers like the United States, Russia, and China now taking their positions.

Bitcoin and Ethereum Lead… Coin Inflows Reach $1.2 Billion

According to CoinShares' latest weekly report, cryptocurrency inflows last week reached $1.24 billion, with year-to-date inflows reaching a record $15.1 billion.

This represents a retreat from the previous week's $1.9 billion, but still maintains a strong upward trend.

"Digital asset investment products recorded inflows for 10 consecutive weeks, with $1.24 billion last week alone, bringing year-to-date inflows to a new high of $15.1 billion." – James Butterfill of CoinShares mentioned.

The report pointed to the US Juneteenth holiday (June 19) and reports of US involvement in the Iran conflict as reasons for the slowdown in inflows towards the end of the week.

According to the report, Bitcoin led cryptocurrency inflows by attracting $1.1 billion despite recent price adjustments.

"Bitcoin recorded its second consecutive weekly inflow… indicating that investors are buying during a bear market." – Butterfill added.

Notably, short Bitcoin products recorded a small outflow of $1.4 million, further strengthening the bullish position. Ethereum continued its nine-week upward trend with inflows of $124 million.

This resulted in Ethereum's cumulative inflows being recorded in the shortest period since mid-2021.

Two weeks ago, BeInCrypto reported that Ethereum recorded its strongest inflows since the US election, significantly contributing $224 million that week. The previous week, cryptocurrency inflows reached $286 million, again led by Ethereum.

Among other altcoins, Solana saw small inflows of $2.78 million, and XRP saw $2.69 million, reflecting broad demand for major Layer-1 assets beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum.

Analysts say investors are shifting to cryptocurrencies with strong fundamentals due to uncertainty from geopolitical tensions.

Regional Flows Reflect Mixed Sentiment

Looking closer, the report shows the United States overwhelmingly led regional inflows at $1.25 billion, suggesting strong domestic demand related to the recent rise in institutional investment interest.

This week's total was lower than last week's $1.9 billion, but continued inflows despite macroeconomic and geopolitical factors suggest that investors are still positioning themselves for long-term gains.

Bitcoin and Ethereum continue to attract stable institutional and retail demand, signaling strength in the broader market. With $15.1 billion already recorded in 2025, the year could exceed previous records if market momentum and macroeconomic conditions remain stable.
