Amidst the ongoing conflict in the Middle East, investments in crypto exchange-traded products are on the rise, as reported by digital asset manager Coinshares.
Inflows of digital asset investment products reached $1.06 billion last week, marking the third consecutive week of inflows.
Coinshares emphasizes that the surge in funds towards crypto products during times of geopolitical turmoil reinforces digital assets, particularly Bitcoin (BTC), as a safe haven compared to other asset classes.
Since the start of the crisis in Iran, the total assets under management (AUM) in digital asset exchange-traded products have grown by $140 billion, a 9.4% increase.
Investors allocated $793 million to Bitcoin, representing 75% of the inflows, while $315 million went to Ethereum (ETH). XRP experienced outflows for the second consecutive week, amounting to $76 million.
The US led with $1.02 billion, accounting for 96% of the inflows, followed by Canada and Switzerland with $19.4 million and $10.4 million in inflows, respectively.
Hong Kong saw inflows of $23.1 million, the highest since August 2025, while Germany witnessed outflows of $17.1 million, marking its first weekly outflow in 2026.
The sustained influx of investments in crypto products coincides with the rally of Bitcoin and Ethereum. Bitcoin surged from below $66,000 on March 9th to over $76,000, while Ethereum climbed to nearly $2,400 from under $2,000 the previous week.
Currently, BTC is trading at $70,696 and ETH at $2,173.
