Crypto Fund Inflows Drop to $117.8 Million Amid Ethereum Outflows

For the week spanning April 27 to May 1, investment products in the cryptocurrency sector attracted inflows of $117.8 million. This marks a fifth consecutive week of positive inflows, but the growth rate has reached an all-time low for this timeframe.

The total assets under management in crypto products remained stable at $155 billion. However, investor engagement has diminished significantly, with inflows recorded in only four digital assets, a decrease from nine just a few weeks prior.

During the period from April 27 to April 30, outflows amounted to $619 million. A significant turnaround occurred on May 1, with funds experiencing a substantial inflow of $737 million in a single day, effectively reversing the prior losses and marking one of the highest daily inflow figures in 2026.

Bitcoin led the inflows with $192.1 million for the week, bringing the total for the year to $4.2 billion. Additionally, there was a $6 million increase in interest for short positions.

Ethereum, on the other hand, saw its three-week streak of inflows come to an end, with $81.6 million withdrawn from funds associated with the cryptocurrency.

Regionally, inflows in the U.S. sharply declined to $47.5 million, down from $1.1 billion the previous week. Germany managed to attract $43.8 million, while Canada saw inflows of $16 million.

This follows a week (April 20 to April 24) when inflows into digital asset investment products reached a substantial $1.2 billion.
