ChainCatcher news, according to CoinShares' latest weekly report, the inflow of digital asset investment products slightly increased last week, reaching $48 million. Although the inflow was close to $1 billion in the first half of the week, the release of new macroeconomic data and the Federal Reserve's meeting minutes (indicating that the U.S. economy will strengthen and the Fed's stance will become more hawkish) led to an outflow of $940 million in the second half of the week. This indicates that the honeymoon period after the U.S. elections has ended, and macroeconomic data has once again become the main driver of asset prices.Last week, the total inflow for Bitcoin reached $214 million. Although Bitcoin experienced the largest outflow compared to other digital assets later this week, it remains the best-performing asset, with inflows of $799 million year-to-date. Ethereum suffered the largest losses last week, with an outflow of $256 million, which we believe was due to a broader tech stock sell-off rather than any specific issues with the asset. In contrast, Solana did not experience the same pressure, attracting $15 million in inflows. XRP saw inflows of $41 million last week, primarily driven by political and legal factors, indicating increased optimism ahead of the SEC's appeal deadline on January 15.
