Key takeaways from the report

$154 million outflows were recorded in Total assets under management (AUM), the lowest point since July 2021. Ongoing market volatility has led to fickle investors with some seeing this as an opportunity while the aggregate sentiment is predominantly bearish.

Bitcoin was again the primary focus with a swing from inflows the prior week to outflows totalling $154 million last week. Year-to-date and month-to-date flows remain net positive at $307 million  and $187 million respectively. Short bitcoin saw outflows totalling $1.1 million last week.

Multi-asset (multi-crypto) investment products remain the stalwarts with total inflows of $9.7 million last week. Inflows year-to-date represent 5.3% ($185 million) of AuM. 

The investment products have seen only two weeks of outflows this year, much lower relative to its peers. Minor inflows were recorded across a broad selection of altcoins, most notable were Cardano and Polkadot with inflows totalling US$1 million each.

Blockchain equity investment products saw  $20 million outflows, suffering in-line with the broad sell-off in equities. Meanwhile, the crypto market seems to be recording an upward correction, as Bitcoin recovers.
