Cryptocurrency Products Experience Eleven-Week Surge Following Weekly Investments Valued at $2.7 Billion: CoinShares Report
**Headline: Institutional Investments in Cryptocurrencies Remain Strong in H1 2025, with Bitcoin Leading the Charge**
In the first half of 2025, institutional investment in digital assets has demonstrated robust and sustained growth, attracting significant capital inflows and notable gains. Crypto exchange-traded products (ETPs) have drawn nearly $18 billion, just 2.7% lower than the $18.3 billion recorded in the same period last year [4].
This surge in cryptocurrency investments has resulted in 11 consecutive weeks of positive net inflows, totalling $16.9 billion for the year so far. The United States is the dominant driver of this inflow, contributing nearly $2.65 billion alone in the most recent week [2][4].
Institutional demand has been a key driver for Bitcoin’s performance, with prices surging 30% in Q2 2025, reaching a new record monthly high of over $107,000 at the end of June [3]. This rally is a strong indicator of institutional adoption, with factors such as corporate treasury policies and regulated futures contracts supporting the momentum.
Michael Saylor’s company, Strategy, the largest corporate Bitcoin holder, reported unrealized gains exceeding $13 billion for Q2 2025. Their Bitcoin holdings increased in valuation from $43.5 billion in March to $56.3 billion by late June, underscoring the transformative role of Bitcoin on corporate balance sheets [1].
When it comes to the cryptocurrency with the most inflows, Bitcoin dominates, capturing 83% of newly invested funds, with a weekly inflow of $2.2 billion last week [2][3]. Ethereum follows closely, with $429 million invested last week [2]. Other altcoins such as Solana, XRP, Sui, Cardano, and Chainlink have seen smaller but notable inflows, while Litecoin saw no net inflow, indicating a focus on Bitcoin and Ethereum [2].
In other news, JPMorgan is launching a USD-backed deposit token on Base, and BitMEX founder Arthur Hayes has outlined catalysts for a Bitcoin bull market, predicting new all-time highs [5]. However, a TD Bank employee has been accused of accepting bribes to open 140 fraudulent accounts for unknown individuals [6].
