According to CoinShares, investor interest in the digital asset market has significantly increased with a $644 million inflow in one week.
Impact on Bitcoin, XRP, and Solana
Bitcoin-based products led globally with $724 million in inflows, marking it as a top-performing asset in 2025. The digital asset’s year-to-date inflow is $1.3 billion, bringing total assets under management to over $140 billion. U.S.-based Bitcoin ETFs started 2025 with strong investor interest. XRP attracted $6.7 million in inflows, reflecting optimism following its legal battle with the SEC. Solana recorded $6.4 million, showing renewed institutional interest.
Bitcoin Rebound and Market Dynamics
Institutional inflow proves sentiment is improving in the market. The price of Bitcoin was $88,434.56, up 3.89% in 24 hours. This marks a visible deviation from the 30-day low of $76,624.25, prompting analysts to reconsider the rally’s permanence. XRP maintained a 2.79% rally to $2.47, while Solana hit its highest mark in two weeks with a 9.38% growth.
Is the Altcoin Season in?
Broader market sentiment indicates a major shift. Despite a $86 million outflow, Ethereum jumped 4.75% to $2,091. This uptick following ETH’s struggle to break $2,000 suggests a potential altcoin season return. Some analysts support this bullish narrative.
The current inflow dynamics may indicate a new bull phase. However, BTC volatility and ETH and other altcoins' performance remain uncertain.
