Crypto funds recorded $454 million in net outflows last week, according to CoinShares data. A four-day run of outflows totaling $1.3 billion almost completely reversed the $1.5 billion in inflows recorded in the first two days of 2026.

The turnaround in sentiment came mainly from investor worries over dropping possibilities of a Federal Reserve interest rate cut in March following recent macro data releases.

U.S. crypto funds lead outflows with $569M weekly loss

The United States was the only market to show negative sentiment for crypto funds, recording outflows of $569 million. Month-to-date flows for U.S. crypto funds stood at $133 million despite the weekly losses.

Several other countries saw inflows into crypto funds during the week. Germany led positive flows with $58.9 million in weekly inflows, bringing month-to-date and year-to-date totals to $52 million. Canada recorded $24.5 million in weekly gains with $14.7 million month-to-date and $15 million year-to-date. Switzerland attracted $21 million in weekly inflows with $19.5 million month-to-date and year-to-date.

Australia posted $4.7 million in weekly gains. France recorded $1.4 million in inflows. The Netherlands attracted $3.2 million. New Zealand saw $0.3 million in gains. Sweden recorded $0.4 million weekly but showed flat month-to-date performance. Brazil, Italy, and Hong Kong all recorded minor outflows or flat activity.
