Digital assets manager CoinShares has revealed that despite a generally pessimistic institutional investment climate, Cardano (ADA), Solana (SOL), and XRP products are experiencing inflows.

In its latest Digital Asset Fund Flows Weekly Report, CoinShares notes that investors have become less optimistic, resulting in outflows of over $450 million in eight of the last nine weeks.

According to CoinShares, digital assets saw outflows of $54 million last week, marking the fifth consecutive week of outflows.

Most of the outflow activity can be attributed to the United States. Bitcoin (BTC), the leading cryptocurrency by market cap, experienced the largest outflows.

Ethereum (ETH) products also faced significant outflows of nearly $5 million. Binance Coin (BNB) and Polygon (MATIC) saw losses of $0.3 million each.

However, there were exceptions among altcoins. Solana (SOL), Cardano (ADA), and XRP products all witnessed inflows totaling $0.7 million, $0.4 million, and $0.1 million, respectively.

Hot Take: Altcoins Gain Ground as Institutional Investors Seek Opportunities Beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum

Despite the overall outflows in the digital asset market, Cardano, Solana, and XRP have managed to attract institutional investment. This demonstrates a growing interest among investors in exploring opportunities beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum.

While Bitcoin remains the most popular investment product, altcoins are gaining traction due to their unique features and potential for growth. Solana’s scalability and speed, Cardano’s focus on smart contracts and sustainability, and XRP’s use case in cross-border transactions have all contributed to their appeal.

As institutional investors diversify their portfolios and seek higher returns, altcoins like Cardano, Solana, and XRP are emerging as attractive options. This trend highlights the evolving nature of the digital asset market and the increasing recognition of alternative cryptocurrencies.
