Last week, cryptocurrency exchange-traded products (ETPs) saw a significant increase in investment, with inflows reaching a record high of $2.2 billion.
This surge can largely be attributed to the positive sentiment surrounding the upcoming inauguration of US President-elect Donald Trump, as stated by CoinShares research leader James Butterfill in the latest fund flows report released on January 20.
The price of Bitcoin increased by 15% over the last week, resulting in a total of $171 billion assets under management in crypto ETPs. This marks an all-time high. In contrast, there were only minor inflows of $47 million during the second week of 2025.
According to Butterfill, global trading volumes for crypto ETPs remained strong at $21 billion, accounting for 34% of total Bitcoin trading volumes on trusted exchanges. The majority of the $2.2 billion inflows last week can be attributed to Bitcoin ETPs, which saw inflows of $1.9 billion, bringing the total year-to-date inflows to $2.7 billion.
