Short Bitcoin products attracted $10 million in fresh money last week — a sign 
that some traders were actively betting against the world&#8217;s largest 
cryptocurrency as broader selling took hold across global crypto funds.

Says Gemini Founder Selling Spreads Across Borders The United States led the 
retreat, with $1.43 billion pulled from crypto exchange-traded products, 
including $1.26 billion from US-listed spot Bitcoin ETFs. Switzerland and 
Canada followed with outflows of $16 million and $12.5 million, while Hong 
Kong and Germany shed $12 million and $4.4 million, respectively. The 
Netherlands stood out as the only market to post notable gains, drawing $6.6 
million in fresh capital, with Australia adding a modest $700,000. Total 
withdrawals for the week reached $1.47 billion, according to CoinShares — 
extending the prior week&#8217;s $1.07 billion in outflows. Assets under management 
across all crypto ETPs closed the week at roughly $148 billion, with Bitcoin 
funds accounting for 80% of that figure at $120 billion. Bitcoin Takes The 
Brunt Bitcoin products bore the heaviest losses, recording about $1.3 billion 
in outflows — their worst weekly showing of 2026. Ether funds lost $223 
million over the same period. CoinShares head of research James Butterfill 
pointed to Iran-related tensions as the main force driving risk-averse 
behavior among investors, even as US crypto legislation continued to advance 
on Capitol Hill. Not every asset lost ground. Nine cryptocurrencies posted 
inflows above $1 million. XRP led the pack with $31.8 million in fresh 
investment, while Solana pulled in $7.7 million. Smaller but still positive 
flows were recorded for Sui and Chainlink, at $600,000 and $400,000. 
Hyperliquid Bucks The Trend Data from SoSoValue showed Hyperliquid ETFs drew a 
little over $72 million in inflows — one of the more striking figures from a 
week otherwise defined by exits. The numbers suggest that while institutional 
money was stepping back from Bitcoin and Ether, appetite for newer and smaller 
assets remained intact in pockets of the market. Related Reading: When Bitcoin 
Gets Ignored, It Tends To Rally The Hardest, Analyst Says The week marked a 
shift from the previous period, when European markets had shown relative 
steadiness against outflows concentrated elsewhere. This time, the selling was 
more broadly distributed, touching most major markets simultaneously. Reports 
from CoinShares indicate the pattern reflected a wider mood shift among 
investors rather than pressure specific to any single region or product.
