Crypto market update: Ethereum dominates may 2025 inflows, bitcoin sees outflows

Edited by: Yuliya Shumai

According to a CoinShares report from June 2, 2025, the cryptocurrency market experienced inflows of $286 million, marking a continuation of a seven-week trend that has totaled $10.9 billion. Despite these inflows, total assets under management decreased from $187 billion to $177 billion, reflecting recent market declines. Ethereum funds attracted $321 million, outperforming Bitcoin, which experienced $8 million in outflows last week.

US-based products led inflows with $199 million, followed by Germany and Australia with $42.9 million and $21.5 million, respectively. Hong Kong experienced a surge, posting $54.8 million in inflows, the highest since local crypto ETFs launched. Switzerland, however, saw $32.8 million in outflows, with Sweden and Brazil also registering weekly losses.

BlackRock's iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) experienced its first outflow since early April, losing $430.8 million last week. XRP also struggled, marking its second consecutive week of outflows, with $28.2 million exiting the asset. Other assets like Sui, Solana, Cardano, and Chainlink saw modest gains, pulling in $2.2 million, $1.5 million, $100,000, and $800,000, respectively.

This shift indicates a growing preference for Ethereum amid regulatory developments and ETF activity, while Bitcoin experiences a slowdown after a strong run. Market participants are closely watching how macroeconomic events and regulatory milestones will shape the second half of 2025.
