CoinShares Volume 151: Digital Asset Fund Flows Weekly Report

Validated Individual Expert

Recent US Government Quagmire and Treasure prices fuel inflows of US$21m

CoinShares
  • Digital asset investment products saw inflows last week for the first time in 6 weeks totalling US$21m.
  • We believe the inflows are a reaction to a combination of positive price momentum, fears over US government debt prices and the recent quagmire over government funding.
  • Solana continues to shine, with inflows of US$5m, marking its 27th week of inflows and just 4 weeks of outflows this year.

Digital asset investment products saw inflows last week for the first time in 6 weeks totalling US$21m. Earlier in the week it looked as if it would be another week of outflows, with the inflows coming late in the week (Friday) in what we believe is a reaction to a combination of positive price momentum, fears over US government debt prices and the recent quagmire over government funding. Despite this most recent price pick up, volumes remain seasonally low in both the investment product market and the broader crypto market.

The recent regional divergence persists, with the US seeing outflows totalling US$19m last week, while Europe and Canada saw inflows of US$23m and US$17m respectively.

Bitcoin inflows totalled US$20m last week, seeing the majority of inflows, while outflows continue in short-bitcoin which saw US$1.5m last week, bringing outflows since April to US$85m.

Very little activity was seen in the altcoin space, Solana continues to shine, with inflows of US$5m, marking its 27th week of inflows and just 4 weeks of outflows this year, highlighting it as the most loved altcoin this year. Ethereum saw outflows for a 7th consecutive week, totalling US$1.5m, marking it as the least loved altcoin.

Blockchain equities saw outflows of US$8.4m, inline with a broader sell-off in the technology sector.

  • 360 Smart Agent Discovers High-Risk Vulnerability in OpenClaw, Potentially Affecting 170,000 Instances Worldwide

    On March 31, according to Guoshi Direct, it was reported by 360 Digital Security Group that its independently developed 360 multi-agent collaborative vulnerability mining system has discovered a high-risk vulnerability in the OpenClaw platform—specifically, a local file exposure vulnerability due to MEDIA protocol prompt injection bypassing tool permissions. This vulnerability has been officially confirmed by the National Information Security Vulnerability Database (CNNVD) and affects over 50 countries and regions worldwide, with more than 170,000 publicly accessible OpenClaw instances facing security risks. The core risk of this vulnerability lies in the fact that the MEDIA protocol operates at the output post-processing layer, allowing it to completely bypass platform tool policy controls. Even if agents disable all tool calls, attackers can initiate attacks solely based on basic member permissions in group chats, directly stealing sensitive information from servers, which could easily lead to subsequent cyberattacks.

  • Trump Willing to End Iran War Despite Closure of Strait of Hormuz

    On March 31, the Wall Street Journal reported that U.S. government officials revealed President Trump has indicated to his aides that he is willing to end military actions against Iran even if the Strait of Hormuz remains largely closed. This move could extend Tehran's firm control over the waterway and leave the complex task of reopening the strait for later. Recently, Trump and his aides assessed that reopening this crucial passage would push the conflict beyond the four to six-week timeline he has set. Trump has decided that the U.S. should achieve the primary goal of weakening Iran's navy and missile stockpiles while gradually ending current hostilities and applying diplomatic pressure on Iran to restore free trade. Officials stated that if this approach fails, Washington will pressure its European and Gulf allies to lead efforts to reopen the strait. They noted that Trump could also opt for a military solution, but this is not his current priority.

  • Republican Party Introduces 'Mined in America Act' to Expand Mining and Strengthen Bitcoin Reserves

    On March 31, U.S. Senators Cynthia Lummis and Bill Cassidy introduced the 'Mined in America Act,' aimed at promoting the development of the cryptocurrency mining industry and codifying former President Trump's executive order establishing a strategic Bitcoin reserve into law. The bill plans to strengthen the role of cryptocurrency mining in the U.S. economy while solidifying previous policy arrangements regarding the strategic Bitcoin reserve through legislation. This reserve is primarily composed of Bitcoins seized by the U.S. Treasury through law enforcement actions. The bill also requires the U.S. Department of Commerce to establish a voluntary certification system to regulate mining pools and facilities. Additionally, certified mining facilities must gradually reduce their reliance on mining equipment produced by companies associated with 'foreign adversaries.' Proponents of the bill state that it is an important step towards making the U.S. a global center for digital assets and aims to enhance the country's strategic position within the cryptocurrency supply chain.
