Altcoins defied the trend, attracting $21 million in inflows, with the primary beneficiaries being Solana ($10.6 million), Cardano ($3 million), XRP ($2.7 million) and Chainlink ($2 million), respectively.

US and Germany See Crypto Outflows, While Canada and Switzerland Offset With Inflows

Regionally, the outflows were mainly concentrated in the US, which witnessed $18 million in outflows, while Germany experienced minor outflows totaling $10 million.

However, continued inflows into Canada and Switzerland, amounting to $6.9 million and $9.1 million, respectively, partially offset this. The mixed regional flows suggest that this was more related to profit-taking than a shift in sentiment towards the asset class.

Blockchain equities continued to garner positive sentiment, witnessing substantial inflows totaling $122 million last week. This brings the total for the last nine weeks to $294 million, marking the largest run on record.
