Despite a dramatic drop in cryptocurrency prices on Friday, triggered by President Donald Trump’s announcement of 100% tariffs on China, global digital asset investment products saw weekly inflows of more than $3 billion, suggesting strong institutional resilience.

According to a report published this Monday by CoinSharesglobal cryptocurrency investment products (ETPs), including the brand new exchange-traded funds (ETFs) of Bitcoin and Ethereum cash managed by giants like BlackRock, Bitwise, Fidelity and Grayscale, recorded a net inflow of USD $3.17 billion last week.

The report of CoinShares underlines that net inflows boosted the year-to-date (YTD) to a record of USD $48.7 billion, defying the severe price correction that was concentrated at the end of the week.

Positive flows into US Bitcoin ETFs

Most of the flows were directed to products linked to Bitcoin. The ETFs of Bitcoin cash in the US., a key driver of institutional growth, recorded a robust inflow of USD $2.7 billion during the weekaccording to data from the analysis firm SoSoValue.

The week was predominantly positive, with the exception of Friday—the day of the crash—when these funds marked minor outflows of USD $4.5 million. Globally, products based on Bitcoin They led the entries with USD $2.67 billion, raising the annual cumulative total to USD $30.2 billion, although still below the USD $41.7 billion in 2024.

“Despite the significant price correction caused by the US’s threats of tariffs on China, it showed little reaction on Friday with modest outflows of USD $159 million”said James Butterfill, head of research at CoinShares in the report, highlighting record trading volumes that day.

Ethereum and altcoin funds also saw inflows

Meanwhile, ETFs Ethereum US spot markets also attracted a modest but significant inflow of $488.2 million during the week. However, this momentum was dampened by sell-offs at the end of the week, which resulted in outflows of $8.5 million on Thursday and a sharper outflow of $174 million on Friday, coinciding with the price drop.

Globally, the products of Ethereum amounted to USD $338.3 million, with an accumulated annual total of almost USD $14,000 million, according to CoinShares. The report adds that other assets such as Solarium (SOL) and

Net flows were concentrated in the US, with USD $3.01 billion, followed by Switzerland (USD $132 million) and Germany (USD $53.5 million), while Sweden, Brazil and Hong Kong recorded outflows. Total assets under management (AUM) fell 7% from the previous week’s peak, to $242 billion.

Chaotic Friday of historic liquidations

Investor optimism contrasted with the chaos on Friday, when the cryptocurrency market experienced its largest liquidation event in history, with nearly $20 billion in long and short positions closed in a 24-hour span.

Bitcointhe largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, experienced a drastic drop, subtracting almost $17,000 from its price in a matter of hours and trading at one point below $105,000.

The magnitude of the volatility was so extreme that trading volumes in global digital asset ETPs hit a weekly record of $53 billion, with Friday marking the highest daily volume ever recorded, according to the report.

The catalyst for this panic was President Donald Trump’s announcement about the imposition of 100% tariffs to Chinawhich revived fears of a trade war between both nations and unleashed a shock wave of risk aversion in global financial markets, from which cryptocurrencies were not immune.

Trump’s announcement has been qualified, with the cryptocurrency market now showing signs of recovery, where Bitcoin It is trading above USD $114,000 on Monday with a modest 1% gain at press time.

Despite the historic correction, the net inflow of more than $3 billion into cryptocurrency investment products underscores the conviction of institutional investors, who appear to view price declines as an opportunity to accumulate, keeping weekly flows firmly in positive territory.
