Bitcoin primary investment focus
Digital asset investment products saw inflows totaling US$76 million last week. This is the 4th consecutive week, with year-to-date inflows currently at US$230 million, underscoring a decisive shift in investor sentiment for the start of 2023. Total investment assets under management (AuM) are up 39% year-over-year, currently at $30.3 billion, the highest level since mid-August 2022. Regionally, entries focused on the US, Canada and Germany with $38 million and $25 million.
Bitcoin remains the primary investor focus, with inflows totaling US$69 million representing 90% of total weekly flows. The remainder of the entries came from short-term Bitcoin, which totaled $8.2 million over the same period, highlighting continued divergence over the sustainability of this rally.
Short-bitcoin entries remain relatively small compared to Long-bitcoin entries, with entries in the last 3 weeks totaling US$38 million, representing 26% of the total AuM. So, it makes sense from a relative scaling standpoint, but that trade hasn’t worked well so far year-to-date, with the total short Bitcoin AuM down 9.2%.
Among the altcoins in this report, Solana ($0.5M), Cardano ($0.6M) and Polygon ($0.3M) saw small inflows, while Polygon saw $0.5M outflows). Despite improving clarity on staking, Ethereum only saw $0.7 million in inflows.
