Bitcoin Leads With $571 Million Weekly Outflows
As per the report findings, Bitcoin leads the charge with the highest $571 million weekly outflows. On the other hand, XRP witnessed the highest weekly inflows of $38.3 million. However, outflows dominated the market, bringing the total outflows to $924 million in the last two weeks.
When we focus on region wise fund investments, the United States tops the weekly outflows with $560 million. However, the market sentiment is positive in Germany, Switzerland, Australia, and Sweden. This further strengthens the impact of the US political environment’s influence on the crypto market.

“We believe investors are exercising caution following the US Presidential inauguration and the consequent uncertainty around trade tariffs, inflation, and monetary policy.”
On the flip side, multiple US states are introducing bills to add Bitcoin to their state treasury. Georgia is the latest US state to propose a second Bitcoin reserve bill to invest in BTC. Despite Trump taking steps to fulfill his promise of making the US a crypto capital, his tariffs and postponement of evaluating Bitcoin strategic reserve are negatively impacting the market.
