Ether ETH$3,577.08 investment funds have seen record net inflows of $2.2 billion in 2024, finally surpassing the cryptocurrency’s 2021 net inflow record of roughly $2 billion, according to CoinShares.

The record inflows reflect “a dramatic turnaround in sentiment” for ETH, according to CoinShares’ Dec. 2 weekly digital asset fund flows report.

Overall, cryptocurrency investment products saw net inflows totaling $270 million during the week starting Nov. 26, taking total inflows for the year to a new record of more than $37 billion, according to the data.

Early signs of altseason?

During the week of Nov. 26, investor interest seemed to swing from Bitcoin BTC$95,725 to ETH, based on CoinShares’s data.

Bitcoin saw outflows of $457 million — the cryptocurrency’s first significant outflows since September — while ETH saw inflows of $634 million during the same period, according to the report.

Hartmann Capital founder Felix Hartmann believes the pivot from BTC to ETH is a signal that Wall Street is “officially joining the fun” on the “alt rotation.”

“ETH ETF flows have flipped BTC ETF flows for the first time,” crypto commentator Ethereum Vibin said in an X post.

On Nov. 29, Cointelegraph reported that Ether exchange-traded funds (ETFs) saw more money from investors than their Bitcoin counterparts since Nov. 22 after Ethereum’s decentralized finance (DeFi) ecosystem scored a key victory in a United States court.

XRP’s rebound

Notably, XRP XRP$2.45 saw inflows of nearly $100 million, the largest ever, which CoinShares says is “due to hype surrounding the potential for a [exchange-traded fund].”

On Dec. 1, XRP surpassed Solana SOL$223.08 in market capitalization and has since flipped Tether’s USDt USDT$1.00 to become the third-largest crypto asset by market cap.

The native asset used by blockchain payments firm Ripple has surged to a new 2024 high as investors anticipate pro-crypto developments in the US under President-elect Donald Trump.

Investors are also early awaiting progress on Ripple’s dollar-pegged, overcollateralized stablecoin project, RLUSD.

    according to insiders, Bank of Japan officials believe that before the current rate hike cycle ends, interest rates are likely to rise above 0.75%, indicating that there may be more rate hikes after next week's increase. These insiders said that officials believe that even if rates rise to 0.75%, the Bank of Japan has not yet reached the neutral interest rate level. Some officials already consider 1% to still be below the neutral interest rate level. Insiders stated that even if the Bank of Japan updates its neutral rate estimates based on the latest data, it currently does not believe that this range will significantly narrow. Currently, the Bank of Japan's estimate for the nominal neutral interest rate range is about 1% to 2.5%. Insiders said that Bank of Japan officials also believe there may be errors in the upper and lower limits of this range itself. (Golden Ten)
