Digital asset products saw $921M in inflows after September CPI data boosted investor confidence. Bitcoin led while Ethereum recorded outflows.
Digital asset investment products recorded $921 million in inflows last week, marking a reversal from the previous week’s $513 million in outflows.
The figure reflects improved investor confidence following the release of September inflation data, which showed core price increases slowing from prior months.
According to a CoinShares weekly report released October 27, the inflows were driven by lower-than-expected inflation figures that strengthened expectations for additional interest rate cuts this year.
The September 2025 CPI report, released October 24, showed core inflation rose 0.2%, a deceleration from the 0.3% increases recorded in July and August.
The Consumer Price Index for all items rose 0.3% in September on a seasonally adjusted basis. The report noted this data helped restore confidence that further rate cuts remain likely.

Bitcoin Dominates While Ethereum Reverses
Bitcoin BTC $90 509 24h volatility: 2.1% Market cap: $1.81 T Vol. 24h: $68.43 B led the week with $931 million in inflows. Cumulative inflows since the Federal Reserve began cutting rates have reached $9.4 billion, with year-to-date flows now standing at $30.2 billion.
Ethereum ETH $3 130 24h volatility: 3.6% Market cap: $377.63 B Vol. 24h: $22.13 B , however, recorded its first outflows in five weeks, totaling $169 million.
Daily flow data from Farside showed Bitcoin ETPs attracted $477.2 million on October 21, followed by $20.3 million on October 23 and $90.6 million on October 24. Global trading volumes remained elevated at $39 billion for the week.
Regional Flow Patterns Show Divergence
The US dominated regional activity with $843 million in inflows. Germany recorded $502 million, identified in the report as one of the country’s largest weekly inflows on record.
Switzerland saw $359 million in outflows, though the analysis clarified this primarily reflected an asset transfer between providers rather than genuine selling pressure.
These institutional flows contrast with recent exchange-level activity, including Binance’s Q3 inflow milestone of $14.8 billion.
The latest flows indicate recovering confidence after mid-October volatility that saw Bitcoin decline from $123,800 to $103,500 between October 10 and October 17.
Coinspeaker analysts tracking the Bitcoin price forecast noted the asset has since rebounded above $113,000, despite a recent Bitcoin price dip on October 22. Year-to-date inflows remain below 2024’s $41.6 billion total.
