Ethereum also performed robustly, attracting $45 million in inflows over the past week. This performance pushed its total year-to-date (YTD) inflows to $103 million, surpassing Solana (SOL), which has $71 million YTD inflows. Last week, SOL saw $9.6 million in inflows, trailing behind ETH in terms of overall investor interest.

The United States led the charge in digital asset inflows, contributing $1.3 billion of the total $1.35 billion in the past week. Switzerland followed with $66 million in inflows. Conversely, Brazil and Hong Kong saw outflows of $5.2 million and $1.9 million, respectively.

On a related note, BlackRock, the world’s largest asset manager, reported a record $10.6 trillion in AUM as of the end of the fourth quarter. This milestone marks a $1.2 trillion year-over-year growth for the firm, driven in part by a surge in ETF inflows in Q1.

Larry Fink, CEO of BlackRock, attributed this growth to the firm’s strong performance in private markets, alongside significant contributions from retail investors and increasing flows into ETFs. The firm’s ability to attract substantial investments underlines the growing confidence in the broader financial market, including digital assets.
