This expectation has dampened investor enthusiasm, reducing global trading volumes and mixed inflows across different regions.

However, the broader market saw mixed results, with notable outflows in certain regions, such as Switzerland and Hong Kong, where outflows reached $30 million and $14 million, respectively.

Ethereum, the second-largest cryptocurrency, recorded $4.2 million in inflows. However, this seemingly modest figure for Ethereum conceals significant underlying activity.

New providers of Ethereum investment products saw substantial inflows of $104 million,
