Crypto funds saw $1.47 billion outflow from May 18-22, marking a second week of decline.

Between May 18 and 22, cryptocurrency-based investment funds recorded an outflow of $1.47 billion. This marks the second consecutive week of negative results and the third-largest reduction in 2026, according to CoinShares.

More negative dynamics were observed at the end of January, when the market experienced two consecutive weekly declines of $1.7 billion.

Since May 11, investors have withdrawn $2.54 billion from funds due to reduced risks related to the situation in Iran. The CLARITY Act, which passed a key Senate vote, did not provide a positive boost.

The United States leads in terms of fund outflows with $1.425 billion. The figures for other countries are as follows:

• Switzerland — $16.2 million;
• Canada — $12.5 million;
• Hong Kong — $12.2 million.

Figures in Germany remained largely unchanged.

Bitcoin saw an outflow of $1.315 billion, the largest in 2026. Investors withdrew $222.8 million from Ethereum-based products.

Altcoins continued to selectively record inflows:

• XRP — +$31.8 million;
• NEAR — +$9 million;
• SOL — +$7.7 million;
• SUI — +$2.9 million.

Multi-asset products received $4.7 million.

Earlier in May, spot volumes for Bitcoin fell to their lowest levels in 2023.
