Digital asset investment products saw large inflows totalling US$708m last week, bringing year-to-date inflows to US$1.6bn and total global assets under management to US$53bn. Trading volumes in ETPs fell to US$8.2bn compared to the prior week total of US$10.6bn, although remain well above the US$1.5bn week average in 2023. These volumes comprise 29% of Bitcoin’s total trading on trusted exchanges.
Regionally, the focus remains on the US, which saw US$721m inflows last week, with newly issued ETFs seeing US$1.7bn inflows. These new ETFs have now averaged US$1.9bn inflows over the last 4 weeks, bringing total inflows since launch (11th January) to US$7.7bn. This has been offset by outflows from incumbent issuers, which total US$6bn, but data highlights a significant reduction in momentum of these outflows in recent weeks.
Bitcoin saw inflows totalling US$703m last week, comprising 99% of all flows. Short-bitcoin saw minor outflows totalling US$5.3m, coinciding with a reversal of negative price momentum.
Solana saw US$13m inflows last week, outpacing Ethereum and Avalanche, which saw US$6.4m and US$1.3m outflows respectively last week.
Blockchain equities saw US$147m outflows from one issuer last week, although this masked US$11m inflows from other issuers.

Once the Federal Reserve starts the rate hike cycle, is "three consecutive hikes" a reasonable expectation?
BMO expects consecutive rate hikes in October and December, with a total of three increases potentially wiping out all rate cut gains for 2025. Vanguard believes "three consecutive hikes" is a reasonable starting point, but the actual number could be as high as six. There are historical exceptions: in 1997, the Federal Reserve raised rates only once and took no further action for the following 18 months. Meanwhile, trillion-dollar debt financing by AI giants, private credit exposure in the insurance industry, and the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield approaching 5% are the most dangerous pressure points in this rate hike cycle.
Goldman Sachs Also Changes Its Tune: The Fed Will Raise Interest Rates Next Week!
Goldman Sachs has shifted from predicting a rate hold to betting on a 25 basis point hike next week, stating that this change is not due to particularly bad inflation data—the August CPI was not perfect, but it wasn’t alarming either. The real key is that hawkish comments from Waller have already shaped market expectations: "If the inflation data isn’t perfect, there will be a rate hike." If the Federal Reserve backs down now, its credibility will suffer a serious blow and long-term interest rates could react sharply and immediately.
