Analysts record rebound in inflows to crypto funds

Inflows to cryptocurrency investment products for the period September 10–16 totaled $7.3 million, versus a $63 million outflow a week earlier, according to CoinShares.

\”The combination of positive and negative flows […] indicates ongoing disengagement among investors\”, according to analysts.

In traditional Bitcoin funds, there was an inflow of $17 million. Previously, there was negative momentum for five consecutive weeks ($93 million in total over this period).

In structures that allow shorting the first cryptocurrency, inflows of $2.6 million were recorded. Their AUM neared a record $169 million.

Outflows from Ethereum funds continued for the fourth straight week ($15.4 million vs $61.6 million a week earlier).

No significant changes were observed in products based on other altcoins.

Crypto-asset basket funds attracted $1 million. Year-to-date inflows into these products ($224.1 million) were almost equal to inflows to Bitcoin funds ($259.2 million).

On September 19, the price of the leading cryptocurrency failed to hold above $19,000.
