The report also noted a rare trend of global inflows across all regions, indicating a widespread positive sentiment towards crypto assets post the recent price correction.<\/p>\n<p>Notable contributions came from various regions such as the United States, Switzerland, Brazil, and Canada, with significant inflows recorded in the past week alone.<\/p>\n<p>Ethereum stood out amidst market turbulence, attracting $155 million in inflows last week, taking its year-to-date inflows to $862 million, the highest volume seen since 2021. The surge in Ethereum inflows was largely driven by the introduction of US spot-based Ethereum ETFs, indicating rising interest in alternative crypto ETF products beyond Bitcoin.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Shift_Towards_Long_Positions_by_Investors\"><\/span>Shift Towards Long Positions by Investors<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>While Bitcoin initially saw outflows at the start of the week, a reversal occurred in the final days with significant inflows totaling $13 million for the week. Conversely, short crypto ETF products based on BTC faced substantial outflows, leading to a reduction in AuM for short positions to the lowest level since the beginning of the year.<\/p>\n<p>Additional data from SoSo Value highlighted that spot crypto ETFs experienced a net outflow of $169 million in the Bitcoin market. Notable figures included the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust ETF (GBTC) with a weekly outflow of $392 million and BlackRock ETF IBIT with a significant inflow of $220 million.<\/p>\n<p>Bitcoin, the largest cryptocurrency, has dropped over 2% in the last 24 hours, trading at $58,640.
