Bitcoin investment products experienced their biggest weekly withdrawal of the year, with investors pulling out $1.44 billion, according to the latest data from CoinShares.
The outflow surpassed the previous week’s record and marked the largest single week of Bitcoin fund redemptions in 2026. As a result, Bitcoin’s year to date inflows dropped sharply to $1.2 billion, down from $2.6 billion the week before and $3.9 billion just two weeks earlier.
Crypto Funds Extend Losing Streak
The broader digital asset investment market also remained under pressure. Total outflows across crypto investment products reached $1.67 billion last week, extending the current withdrawal trend to three consecutive weeks.
Over that period, investors have removed a combined $4.21 billion from crypto related funds.
In its latest Digital Asset Fund Flows Weekly Report, CoinShares noted that investor caution linked to geopolitical developments involving Iran appeared to outweigh any positive sentiment generated by progress surrounding the CLARITY Act.
The continued withdrawals also weighed on total assets under management, which fell to $141 billion from $148 billion the previous week. This represents the lowest level since early April and mirrors the prolonged outflow period seen between January and February.
XRP, Hyperliquid, and Near Defy Market Trend
Despite the broader market weakness, a handful of digital assets continued to attract investor interest.
XRP led all altcoin inflows with $20.3 million in fresh capital, followed by Hyperliquid, which attracted $10.8 million. Near Protocol also recorded solid demand, bringing in $7.6 million.
Meanwhile, Ethereum investment products saw $257 million leave the market. Investor participation across the altcoin sector also declined, with fewer assets attracting meaningful inflows compared to the previous week.
Multi asset crypto funds experienced withdrawals totaling $2.3 million, while Sui and Solana posted net outflows of $1.4 million and $0.8 million respectively.
United States Leads Global Withdrawals
The vast majority of last week’s outflows came from the United States, where investors withdrew approximately $1.63 billion from digital asset investment products.
Germany recorded $25.7 million in outflows, while Sweden and Hong Kong saw investor withdrawals totaling $6.6 million and $4.5 million respectively.
A few regions managed to buck the trend. The Netherlands attracted $1.3 million in inflows, while Switzerland and Canada recorded smaller gains of $0.5 million and $0.4 million.
Analysts Point to Broader Economic Pressures
The latest wave of withdrawals comes as Bitcoin continues to face downward pressure amid an uncertain macroeconomic environment.
Analysts at Bitunix argue that Bitcoin’s challenges now extend beyond simple shifts in investor risk appetite. They believe the market is increasingly being affected by rising global borrowing costs and tighter liquidity conditions.
According to their assessment, stronger than expected US employment data combined with Treasury yields approaching 5% could force investors to reassess valuations across risk assets, including cryptocurrencies. On the other hand, weaker labor market figures may help ease concerns about further financial tightening.
The analysts added that market sentiment is no longer primarily focused on whether the Federal Reserve will raise interest rates again. Instead, investors are increasingly questioning whether the bond market has already imposed the economic impact of another rate hike before policymakers take any additional action.#crypto#cryptonews https://coinsignals.net https://t.me/coinsignalpublic
