Geographically, the majority of inflows came from US crypto ETFs, with a cumulative $1.98 billion inflow last week. The recently launched UK crypto ETNs have underperformed, with only about $500K in total trading volume.
Meanwhile, Bitcoin continues to lead the digital asset ETF train, totaling $1.97 billion in inflows. Bitcoin ETFs bought 25,700 BTC last week, 8x the supply of Bitcoin mined in the past two months, according to data from HODL15Capital.

Despite this record-breaking move by ETFs, Bitcoin's price has hovered around the $69K to $70K range in the past week.
This has stirred concerns among members of the crypto community who believe that the surge in inflows from ETFs should cause the price of BTC to reach a new all-time high. The largest cryptocurrency hit a range high of $71.7K on June 5, the first time since May.
