Cryptocurrency investment products continued to gain ground last week, signaling resilience to geopolitical stress and strengthening the case for Bitcoin’s role as a safe-haven asset.
Exchange-traded products (ETPs) recorded an inflow of $1.06 billion last week, of which $793 million went to Bitcoin (BTC), CoinShares reported on Monday.
The inflows represent three consecutive weeks of positive flows totaling $2.7 billion, bringing net inflows to approximately $1.2 billion year-to-date.
CoinShares head of research James Butterfill said the growing momentum over the past few weeks highlights the resilience of digital assets, particularly Bitcoin, as a “relative safe haven” compared to other asset classes.
He said that since the start of the Iran crisis, the total assets under management (AuM) in digital asset ETPs have increased by 9.4% to almost $140 billion.
Ethereum ETP flows will soon become neutral with $315 million in fresh inflows
With the latest inflows, Bitcoin ETPs have boosted year-to-date profits to $933 million. Ether funds (ETH) continue to lose money, recording year-to-date outflows of around $23 million, following an inflow of $315.3 million last week.
Butterfill said the introduction of fresh ETF listings for staking in the US contributed to positive momentum, bringing flows closer to a net neutral position.
XRP (XRP) saw a second week of outflows totaling $76 million, while Solana (SOL) saw inflows of $9.1 million.

Short-Bitcoin products also saw an inflow of $8.1 million last week, highlighting that market opinion remains “somewhat polarized,” Butterfill said.
Spot Bitcoin ETF after first five-day streak of inflows, with year-to-date losses still at $500 million
Most of the bitcoin fund inflows were driven by U.S. spot Bitcoin Exchange Trade Funds (ETFs), which posted their first five-day streak of inflows in 2026, attracting $767.3 million in fresh funds last week.
Despite three consecutive weeks of inflows totaling $2.1 billion, ETFs remain negative this year, with year-to-date net outflows totaling approximately $493 million.
This week we will reveal whether U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs can finally turn positive in 2026, after outflows of $1.8 billion in January and February were partially offset by inflows of $1.34 billion in March.
