Last week, digital asset investment products experienced substantial outflows totaling approximately $1.7 billion, contributing to a net outflow of $1 billion since the beginning of this year. Since the market peak in October 2025, the total value of assets under management has declined by $73 billion. The majority of these withdrawals occurred in the United States, with nearly $1.65 billion pulled out, while notable investors in Canada and Sweden also reduced their holdings. Bitcoin faced the largest outflows, with $1.32 billion withdrawn, alongside declines in investments in other major cryptocurrencies such as Ethereum, XRP, and Solana. Experts attribute this market shift to several factors, including the appointment of a hawkish Federal Reserve chairman, a “whale sell-off” within the four-year cycle, and escalating global political tensions. These elements have negatively impacted investor sentiment, prompting capital withdrawals from the market. Interestingly, short-term Bitcoin products and hype investment products defied the downturn by attracting $14.5 million and $15.5 million in investments, respectively, with hype products benefiting particularly from increased on-chain sales of tokenized precious metals. This volatility in the digital asset market presents both risks and opportunities for investors, and future investment trends may continue to evolve in response to global financial policies and geopolitical developments.
