According to CoinShares’ latest weekly report, crypto investment products registered slight net inflows last week, with a total of $6 million entering the market. The figures reflect ongoing uncertainty among investors, with notable variations in sentiment both across regions and among individual crypto assets. Despite a relatively stable start to the week, broader macroeconomic data, particularly from the US, had a visible impact on fund flows. Related Reading: Ethereum Attempts Breakout From Multi-Month Downtrend, But Can ETH Hold $1,600? US Crypto Outflows Lead the Week, While European Sentiment Remains Positive CoinShares’ Head of Research, James Butterfill, noted that the release of “stronger-than-expected “US retail sales data mid-week coincided with a significant capital outflow. As a result, although there were early inflows, mid-week saw a pullback of $146 million, erasing much of the earlier gains. Regional trends were particularly mixed. The United States led the weekly outflows, with investment products domiciled in the country seeing a net withdrawal of $71 million. By contrast, European markets maintained a more positive outlook. Switzerland saw inflows of $43.7 million, Germany followed with $22.3 million, and Canada added $9.4 million, highlighting regional divergence in crypto investment behavior. Bitcoin remained the focal point of fund movement throughout the week. Intra-week flows signaled conflicting views among investors, ultimately concluding with minor outflows totaling $6 million. Short Bitcoin products also saw continued reductions, with $1.2 million in outflows last week. This marks the seventh consecutive week of outflows for short positions, bringing the cumulative withdrawal from these products to $36 million. According to CoinShares, this now accounts for approximately 40% of total assets under management (AUM) in short Bitcoin investment vehicles. Ethereum Sees Continued Pressure, While XRP Maintains Upward Trend Ethereum faced ongoing outflows, continuing an eight-week trend. The asset experienced a further $26.7 million in withdrawals last week, bringing total crypto outflows since the start of the recent streak to $772 million. Despite this consistent pressure, Ethereum still holds the second-highest position in year-to-date (YTD) fund flows, recording $215 million in net inflows so far in 2024. This indicates that while recent sentiment has cooled, longer-term interest remains comparatively strong. In contrast, XRP recorded notable weekly inflows of $37.7 million. This recent performance has elevated the token to third place in YTD fund flows, just behind Ethereum, with a total of $214 million in net inflows since the beginning of the year.

The Bitcoin price continues to face headwinds, as the latest report on Digital Asset Fund Flows shows a staggering $751 million in outflows from the digital asset. The sheer volume of this withdrawal raises alarm bells about whether institutions may be cashing out from the flagship cryptocurrency. Bitcoin Price Faces Pressure Amid Massive Outflows CoinShares’ weekly report on Digital Asset Fund Flows has disclosed a massive $795 million in outflows from the crypto market—shockingly, $751 million of which came from Bitcoin alone. This mass exodus marks one of the largest single-week outflows of the year, and it comes at a time when the price of Bitcoin has hit a wall. Related Reading: $9.41 Billion In Shorts At Risk Of Liquidation If Bitcoin Price Hits This Level James Butterfill, the Head of Research at CoinShares, revealed that since early February 2025, digital asset investment products have suffered cumulative outflows of approximately $7.2 billion, effectively erasing almost all the year-to-date inflows. Notably, this week marks the third consecutive week of declines, with Bitcoin leading the downturn and recording the most significant losses among major digital assets. As of this report, net flows for 2025 have dwindled to a modest $165 million, a sharp drop from a multi-billion dollar peak just two months ago. This steep decline underscores a cooling sentiment among institutional investors and highlights a growing sense of caution amid ongoing market volatility. Currently, the Bitcoin price is struggling to regain past all-time highs, with recent outflows serving as one of the many barriers hindering the cryptocurrency’s breakout potential. Until these outflows reverse and the market stabilizes, Bitcoin’s path to setting new all-time highs remains challenged. Despite losing $751 million in outflows, Bitcoin still maintains a moderately positive position with $545 million in net year-to-date inflows. However, the sheer scale and speed of the latest outflows raise concern. The fact that Bitcoin suffered such a massive withdrawal signals a potential shift in sentiment among institutions. Whether it’s due to profit-taking or macroeconomic uncertainty, this move suggests that big players are beginning to pull out — at least in the short term. In addition to Bitcoin, Ethereum saw $37 million in outflows, while Solana, Aave, and SUI also posted losses of $5.1 million, $0.78 million, and $0.58 million, respectively. Surprisingly, even short Bitcoin products, designed to benefit from market downturns, weren’t spared, recording $4.6 million in outflows. Tariffs And Political Volatility Drive Outflows One of the key drivers behind the pullback across digital assets is the rising economic uncertainty sparked by tariff policies that have adversely influenced investor sentiment. The wave of negative sentiment began in February after United States (US) President Donald Trump announced plans to impose tariffs on all imports coming into the country from Canada, Mexico, and China. Related Reading: Trump’s Tariff Pause Could Push Bitcoin Price Above $100,000, Pundit Reveals Exit Point However, a late-week rebound in crypto prices was seen after Trump’s temporary reversal of the controversial tariffs, providing a brief respite for the market. This policy shift helped boost total Asset Under Management (AUM) across digital assets from a low of $120 billion on April 8 to $130 billion, marking an 8% recovery.

Crypto analyst EXCAVO has alluded to the potential Litecoin ETFs and how they spark a massive price surge for LTC. The analyst also revealed how high LTC could rally to at the end of this bull cycle thanks to these ETFs. How The Litecoin ETFs Could Drive LTC’s Price To $800 In a TradingView post, EXCAVO highlighted the Litecoin ETFs as one of the factors that could drive LTC’s price to $800 at the end of the cycle. He noted that Litecoin is just a fork of Bitcoin, and there is not much technology in it. However, he added that a decentralization and adoption issue is occurring, making LTC a suitable candidate for a potential ETF. Related Reading: Meet The New King Of Crypto Payments: Why Users Are Choosing Litecoin Over Bitcoin The analyst indicated that these Litecoin ETFs are one of the bullish fundamentals that could send LTC to this price target. Grayscale. Canary Capital and CoinShares have all applied with the SEC to offer a Litecoin ETF. According to Bloomberg analysts Eric Balchunas and James Seyffart, there is a 90% chance of the US SEC approving these funds this year. As such, if approved this year, these Litecoin ETFs could easily send the LTC price to $800, as EXCAVO predicted. Meanwhile, from a technical analysis perspective, the analyst also stated that the crypto has a standard triangle with horizontal resistance on top. He added that such resistances tend to break out strongly. As such, the analyst is confident that LTC can reach $800 in this cycle thanks to its bullish fundamentals and technicals. EXCAVO also alluded to the LTC/BTC pair, noting that the fall has stopped and the bottom has been minimized. In line with this, he remarked that he expects an upward jump soon enough. LTC Is Headed To $180 In The Short Term In an X post, crypto analyst Dom opined that the Litecoin price is headed to $180. This came as he explained why he doesn’t believe LTC has topped in this cycle. Alluding to historical patterns, the analyst asserted that Litecoin’s chart is nothing like a topping formation.

In a notable change in the crypto regulatory environment, asset managers are regaining confidence in their pursuit of ETFs. Significantly, CoinShares submitted applications for a spot XRP ETF and a Litecoin (LTC) fund, indicating an increasing enthusiasm for altcoin investment offerings. CoinShares Targets Litecoin And XRP ETF CoinShares’ submission arises as the US ETF market is progressively concentrating on cryptocurrency investments, after the approval and resulting success of funds investing in Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) in 2024. The firm has submitted an S-1 registration statement to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to launch the XRP ETF, aimed at providing investors with direct exposure to the market’s second largest altcoin. Related Reading: SAB 122 Is A Bigger Bitcoin Price Catalyst Than The US BTC Reserve Additionally, CoinShares is expanding its offerings by applying for a spot Litecoin ETF, positioning itself as one of the few companies actively exploring altcoin-based ETFs in the US market. On the same day, Grayscale Investments also filed applications with the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) for both a Solana ETF and a Litecoin ETF, alingning with other firms, including Canary Capital and CoinShares, all seeking regulatory approval for similar products. Skepticism Surrounds Proposed Litecoin ETF Despite the enthusiasm surrounding the XRP ETF filing, the altcoin has shown a mixed response in the market. XRP recently emerged from a nearly three-year consolidation period below the $0.50 mark, boosted by excitement surrounding pro-crypto regulatory shifts under President Donald Trump. Currently, XRP is experiencing remarkable momentum, boasting a staggering 500% year-to-date gain, trading at approximately $3.10. However, the announcement of CoinShares’ XRP ETF did not significantly impact the token’s price, which remains down 0.4% within a 24-hour period. Related Reading: XRP Long Term Potential Remains Extremely Bullish Possibility Of Price At $20 On a more critical note, the proposed Litecoin ETF has sparked skepticism among some market experts. Analyst Ali Martinez expressed concerns regarding the viability of a Litecoin ETF, pointing out that the coin has remained stuck in the same price range since 2017, a span of eight years. The analyst continued to probe the reasoning for initiating a Litecoin ETF when ironic options, like a “USDT ETF,” he claims, might provide more instant advantages such as staking rewards.
