TechFlow Insight: According to CoinShares’ latest weekly report, global crypto investment products recorded $857.9 million in net inflows last week—marking the sixth consecutive week of positive flows and the largest weekly inflow since April 24. The immediate catalyst was the release of the compromise text on stablecoin yield provisions under the CLARITY Act, coupled with Bitcoin’s rebound above $80,000. U.S. market inflows surged from $47.5 million the prior week to $776.6 million. Altcoin participation also expanded significantly, with ETH, SOL, and XRP all registering net inflows.
CLARITY Act Progress Is the Key Driver of This Week’s Flows
Last week, global crypto investment products saw $857.9 million in net inflows—the sixth straight week of positive flows and the largest weekly inflow since April 24. James Butterfill, Head of Research at CoinShares, directly attributes this acceleration to legislative progress on the CLARITY Act.
The timeline is clear: On May 1, Senators Tillis and Alsobrooks released the final compromise text on stablecoin yield provisions; on May 4, the two senators held firm against banking-industry lobbying pressure and preserved the compromise unchanged. Formal markup proceedings by the Senate Banking Committee are expected this week.
Bitcoin broke above $80,000 on Monday, reaching its highest level since the February correction. Total assets under management (AUM) rose to $160 billion.

U.S. Inflows Surge Far Beyond Prior Week
By region, the U.S. dominated with $776.6 million in net inflows—representing a dramatic rebound from $47.5 million the previous week.
Europe also showed improvement: Germany recorded $50.6 million, slightly higher than the prior week; Switzerland, $21.1 million; and the Netherlands, $5 million. Butterfill notes this indicates broader participation across Europe alongside the U.S. rebound.

BTC Leads, Short Positions Accelerate Unwinding
Bitcoin products attracted $706.1 million last week, bringing year-to-date net inflows to $4.9 billion.
A notable signal worth unpacking: “Short-bitcoin” products saw $14.4 million in net outflows last week—the largest weekly outflow since 2026. This suggests hedge positions are being unwound and institutional confidence in the rally is strengthening.
Altcoins Rally Broadly; ETH Reverses Prior Week’s Outflow
Ethereum products recorded $77.1 million in net inflows—fully reversing the prior week’s $81.6 million outflow. Solana saw $47.6 million, and XRP $39.6 million—both representing marked acceleration relative to recent activity levels.
The only category posting significant outflows was multi-asset products, with $5.5 million in net outflows.
