Digital asset investment products saw inflows totalling US$1.9bn last week bringing year-to-date (YTD) inflows to US$4.8bn – likely as a result of recent presidential executive orders that proposed the initiation of a strategic reserve asset in Bitcoin.

Regionally, the US recorded inflows of US$1.7bn, with positive executive order news boosting sentiment across nearly all other regions. The most notable flows were observed in Canada, Switzerland, and Germany, seeing inflows of US$31m, US$35m, and US$23m, respectively.
Bitcoin saw inflows totalling US$1.6bn, bringing YTD inflows to US$4.4bn, accounting for 92% of all inflows in the digital asset sector. Following Bitcoin's pre-inauguration new all-time highs last week, it was no surprise to see short-Bitcoin ETFs regain traction, with inflows of US$5.1 million.
