Crypto ETP Investments Reach $4.7 Billion Year-to-Date Amid Market Optimism
Crypto ETP – In the past week, cryptocurrency exchange-traded products (ETPs) have posted robust performance, fueled in part by the announcement of US President Donald Trump’s executive order proposing the establishment of a strategic crypto reserve. According to a report from CoinShares on January 27, Trump’s order, which suggested a national crypto reserve, likely contributed to a significant $1.9 billion injection into various crypto ETPs during the last trading week.
Strong Performance of Crypto ETPs
This marks the third consecutive week of inflows into global crypto ETPs, bringing the year-to-date (YTD) total to $4.7 billion. However, the inflows were down roughly 13% from the previous week, which saw $2.2 billion in ETP investments, as reported by CoinShares.
Bitcoin ETP Dominates Inflows
Bitcoin-based ETPs continued to dominate the market, capturing the lion’s share of the inflows. Last week, Bitcoin ETPs attracted $1.6 billion, which contributed significantly to the $4.4 billion YTD total, representing 92% of all crypto ETP inflows in 2025. The surge in Bitcoin’s price, which reached a new all-time high of over $109,000 on January 20, likely played a role in this significant inflow.
Other Cryptocurrencies Show Mixed Inflows
In contrast, Ethereum-based ETPs saw continued rebound, posting $205 million in inflows last week, bringing the YTD total to $177 million. However, XRP-based ETPs experienced a slight decline, with a 40% drop from the previous week, reaching $18.5 million in inflows.
Among altcoins, Solana (SOL), Chainlink (LINK), and Polkadot (DOT) saw notable inflows, with $6.9 million, $6.6 million, and $2.6 million, respectively. Interestingly, no digital asset investment products experienced outflows last week.
Grayscale Faces Outflows, BlackRock Leads the Way
Among the major ETP issuers, BlackRock saw the largest inflows, attracting $1.5 billion, or 76% of all crypto ETP inflows in the past week. In total, BlackRock has received $2.9 billion in inflows YTD, bringing its total assets under management (AUM) to $64 billion. In contrast, Grayscale continued to see major outflows, with $124 million in outflows last week, contributing to a total of $392 million in outflows since the start of 2025.
As the cryptocurrency market remains volatile, the movement of funds into and out of ETPs will be critical to understanding broader market trends and investor sentiment in the coming weeks.
