Bitcoin & Solana Surge With $947M Inflow, BTC Price Rally Ahead?
In a compelling turn of events, the cryptocurrency market is witnessing a substantial influx of funds, as revealed in the latest Digital Asset Fund Flows Weekly Report by CoinShares. Bitcoin and Solana, two major players in the crypto arena, are at the forefront of this surge, experiencing a combined inflow of $946.9 million. This remarkable development underscores a growing investor interest and confidence in these digital assets.
Bitcoin & Solana Dominate Weekly Inflow
Bitcoin stole the spotlight, attracting a whopping $942 million in inflows last week, constituting a staggering 99% of the total funds flowing into digital asset investment products. Despite the increase in inflows, trading volumes were only $10.5 billion for the week, a stark contrast to the $40 billion seen in March.
Interestingly, the inflows were an immediate response to the lower-than-expected Consumer Price Index (CPI) report on Wednesday, with the latter three trading days of the week accounting for 89% of the total flows. This highlights the view that Bitcoin price have recoupled to interest rate expectations. The dominance of Bitcoin in this influx underscores its enduring appeal among investors, solidifying its position as the flagship cryptocurrency.
Meanwhile, Solana, known for its high-speed transactions and smart contract capabilities, emerged as a star performer with a notable $4.9 million inflow. This surge outpaced other prominent players like Chainlink and Cardano, which experienced outflows of $3.7 million and $1.9 million, respectively. Solana’s resilience and attractiveness to investors in the face of market fluctuations position it as a cryptocurrency to watch closely in the coming weeks.

US Dominates Inflows, ETFs Fuel Crypto Investment Surge
Regionally, the US dominated the inflows, seeing $1,002 million last week. Unusually, Grayscale, which has suffered $16.6 billion of outflows since the January ETF launch, also saw minor inflows for the first time, totaling $18 million. Switzerland and Germany also recorded minor inflows of $27 million and $4.2 million, respectively, while Hong Kong and Canada saw outflows totaling $83 million and $17 million, respectively.
Despite the mixed regional flows, Bitcoin’s price is up 0.07% as of writing, reaching $66,887.42, while its open interest dropped by 0.1% to a current valuation of $18 billion. Notably, the flagship cryptocurrency has gained over 6.49% in the past seven days. This data indicates a renewed interest in Bitcoin, driven by recent market developments and investor sentiment, potentially signaling the beginning of a sustained rally in the cryptocurrency market.
