Crypto exchange-traded products (ETPs) have extended their negative streak to a fourth consecutive week after US market weakness pushed global funds to over $170 million in weekly outflows.<\/p>\n
According to the latest CoinShares data<\/a>, crypto-based investment products recorded their fourth week of outflows amid the negative market sentiment of the past month.<\/p>\n In a Monday report, James Butterfill, head of research at CoinShares, shared that global crypto funds closed the week with negative net flows totaling $173 million, bringing cumulative four-week outflows to $3.47 billion.<\/p>\n Notably, crypto ETPs recorded<\/a> over $1.7 billion in outflows each of the last two weeks of January as the market sentiment shifted, marking the largest negative net flows since November 2025.<\/p>\n Over the past two weeks, investment products have seen outflows of $187m and $173m, respectively. \u00a0The latest figures suggest that the strong selling pressure has slowed, although it has not yet reversed despite improved market sentiment.<\/p>\n \u201cThe week began on a more positive note, with inflows of US$575m, followed by outflows of US$853m, likely driven by further price weakness. Sentiment improved slightly on Friday following weaker-than-expected CPI data, with inflows of US$105m,\u201d he detailed.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, ETPs\u2019 trading activity also dropped notably, with volumes falling to $27 billion from a record $63 billion recorded the previous week.<\/p>\n Butterfill noted that the funds also saw a sharp regional divergence in sentiment between the US and the rest of the world. Per the report, the US saw $403 million in outflows last week, while all other regions recorded $230 million in inflows.<\/p>\n Germany, Canada, and Switzerland registered the strongest performance, with inflows worth $114.8 million, $46.3 million, and $36.8 million, respectively.<\/p>\n As the report noted, the two leading cryptocurrencies, Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum<\/a> (ETH), saw the worst performance among major assets. The flagship crypto had the weakest sentiment, recording $133 million in negative net flows, fueled by BlackRock IBIT\u2019s $235 million in outflows.<\/p>\n However, short Bitcoin investment products also recorded outflows, totaling $15.4 million over the past two weeks, \u201ca pattern often seen near market lows,\u201d Butterfill added.<\/p>\nAltcoins See Selective Resilience<\/h2>\n
