Institutional investors are accumulating Ethereum (ETH), XRP and Solana (SOL) investment products as the new year begins.
According to a new update from CoinShares, digital asset investment products recorded $582 million in net inflows over the past week, despite outflows earlier in the period.
“The year also began on a high note with inflows of US $671m last Friday, bringing the full week inflows to US $582m following outflows earlier in the week.”
Last week, institutions poured $512 million into BTC, $119 million into Ethereum and $10.7 million into XRP, while the third-largest crypto asset Solana witnessed $30 million in outflows.
The strong start follows a solid finish to 2025, when global digital asset products saw total inflows of $47.2 billion, just shy of the 2024 record of $48.7 billion.
The US accounted for the bulk of last year’s inflows, totaling $44.5 billion, though that figure marked a 12% decline from 2024. Meanwhile, Germany posted the most notable turnaround, recording $2.5 billion in inflows after posting outflows a year earlier. Canada added $1.1 billion, while Switzerland saw $775 million in inflows.
Bitcoin (BTC) product inflows hit $26.9 billion in 2025. Short-bitcoin products attracted $105 million but remained a small segment of the market.
Ethereum led asset-specific gains, posting $12.7 billion in inflows, up 138% year over year. XRP and Solana followed with inflows of $3.7 billion and $3.6 billion, representing gains of 500% and 1,000%, respectively.
Various other altcoins saw sentiment weaken, with inflows falling 30% year over year.
