Introduzione

Digital asset exchange-traded products (ETPs) recorded $864 million in net inflows for the third consecutive week, driven primarily by U.S. demand, according to CoinShares. Bitcoin products led with $522 million in inflows, while Ether saw $338 million. Solana and XRP also attracted significant inflows of $65 million and $46.9 million, respectively. The U.S., Germany, and Canada accounted for the majority of regional inflows, while Switzerland posted outflows. Year-to-date, Bitcoin has attracted $27.7 billion, though still below 2024 levels. Multi-asset crypto ETPs and blockchain equity funds saw mixed flows during the period.

Crypto exchange-traded products (ETPs) recorded about $864 million in inflows last week, according to a report on Monday by European digital asset manager CoinShares.

The United States led regional inflows with about $796 million, followed by Germany with roughly $68.6 million and Canada with about $26.8 million. Together, the three countries account for approximately 98.6% of year-to-date (YTD) inflows into digital asset investment products.

Switzerland-listed crypto ETPs recorded about $41.4 million in weekly outflows, while YTD net flows were about $622.4 million, according to the data.

Bitcoin and Ether dominate inflows, followed by Solana and XRP

Bitcoin (BTC) investment products recorded about $522 million in weekly inflows, while short-Bitcoin products posted roughly $1.8 million in net outflows, “signalling a recovery in sentiment,” according to the report.

Ether (ETH) saw approximately $338 million in inflows during the week, lifting YTD to about $13.3 billion, up 148% from 2024.

Beyond Bitcoin and Ether, Solana (SOL) investment products recorded about $65 million in weekly inflows, bringing YTD inflows to roughly $3.46 billion, a tenfold increase from last year.

XRP (XRP) products also attracted fresh capital, with approximately $46.9 million added during the week and about $3.18 billion in inflows accumulated YTD, according to the data.

Smaller-cap products saw more mixed results, with Aave (AAVE)-linked products recording about $5.9 million in weekly inflows and Chainlink (LINK) adding roughly $4.1 million. Hyperliquid (HYPE) products posted net outflows of around $14.1 million during the period.

This is the third consecutive week of inflows for crypto ETPs, following about $716 million in inflows last week and roughly $1 billion the week before.

Bitcoin has attracted around $27.7 billion YTD, still below the $41 billion it recorded in 2024.

Outside of single-asset products, multi-asset crypto ETPs recorded about $104.9 million in weekly outflows, extending net redemptions to roughly $69.5 million YTD, despite holding approximately $6.8 billion in assets under management, according to the data.

a16z: 5 Ways Blockchain Can Help AI Agent Infrastructure

Blockchain technology provides critical infrastructure for AI agents by addressing five key challenges: 1) Non-human identity: AI agents lack standardized, portable identity systems. Blockchain enables verifiable, cross-platform agent identities (like "Know Your Agent" frameworks) through cryptographic credentials and on-chain registries. 2) AI governance: When AI systems execute decisions, blockchain ensures transparency and prevents centralized control by recording actions on-chain and enabling auditable execution logs. 3) Payments: Stablecoins and crypto payments (e.g., x402, MPP) serve as default settlement layers for agent-to-agent commerce, enabling frictionless, programmable transactions for "headless" AI-native businesses. 4) Trust and verification: As AI scales, blockchain provides cryptographic proof of origin and auditable histories, making verification—not intelligence—the scarce resource. 5) User control: Crypto-native tools (e.g., delegation toolkits, intent-based architectures) allow users to set boundaries and maintain oversight over autonomous agents, minimizing blind trust. Together, blockchain and AI can create an economic infrastructure built on transparency, accountability, and user sovereignty.

You Bet on the News, the Pros Read the Rules: The True Cognitive Gap in Losing Money on Polymarket

The article explains that the key to profiting on Polymarket, a prediction market platform, lies not just predicting real-world events correctly, but in meticulously understanding the specific rules that govern how each market will be resolved. It illustrates this with examples, such as a market on Venezuela's 2026 leader, where the official rules defining "officially holds" the office overruled the intuitive answer of who was in practical control. Other examples include debates over the definition of a "token" or what constitutes an "agreement." The core argument is that a "reality vs. rules" gap creates pricing discrepancies that savvy traders ("车头" or "whales") exploit. The platform has a formal dispute resolution process managed by UMA token holders to settle ambiguous outcomes. This process involves proposal submission, a challenge window, a discussion period, and a final vote. However, the article highlights a critical flaw in this system compared to a traditional court: the lack of separation between the arbiters (UMA voters) and the interested parties (traders with financial stakes in the outcome). This conflict of interest undermines the discussion phase, leads to herd mentality, and results in opaque final decisions without explanatory rulings. Consequently, the system lacks a body of precedent, making it difficult for users to learn from past disputes. The ultimate takeaway is that success on Polymarket requires a lawyer-like scrutiny of the rules to identify and capitalize on the cognitive gap between how events appear and how they are contractually defined for settlement.

Will Solana Flip Ethereum Soon? SOL Takes First Step Toward Total Domination

Solana has significantly closed the gap with Ethereum, particularly in transaction volume, processing 9 billion transactions last month compared to Ethereum's 69 million. It has also surpassed Ethereum in cumulative lifetime transactions. This highlights Solana's high-throughput, low-cost architecture designed for real-time usage. Major partnerships, such as with Visa for stablecoin settlements and Western Union's upcoming stablecoin launch, underscore its growing institutional adoption. Solana has even overtaken Ethereum in real-world asset (RWA) holders. However, a complete "flippening" depends on broader factors like capital inflows, developer activity, and network confidence. While Solana's smaller market cap suggests greater growth potential, Ethereum's Layer-2 scaling strategy strengthens its ecosystem. The outcome remains uncertain, with trade-offs on both sides.

Spending $200 to Buy Stars, Scamming VCs Out of Tens of Millions: The Entire GitHub Fake Star Industry Exposed

A peer-reviewed study from Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) reveals that GitHub hosts approximately 6 million fake Stars, involving 18,600 repositories and 301,000 accounts, with AI/LLM projects being the largest non-malicious category for fake engagement. The fake Star market has exploded, with prices as low as $0.03 per Star. Research shows that venture capital firms, such as Redpoint Ventures, use GitHub Star counts as a key metric for evaluating startups, with median Stars at 2,850 for seed-stage funding. For less than $200, a project can artificially meet this threshold, distorting investment landscape. Over a dozen websites openly sell GitHub Stars, and fake Star activity saw explosive growth in 2024. AI-related repositories were among the most heavily affected. Despite GitHub’s policies against fake engagement, enforcement remains inconsistent: while 90% of flagged repositories were deleted, only 57% of involved accounts were suspended. The report highlights how purchased Stars can manipulate GitHub’s Trending algorithm and influence VC funding decisions, creating a cycle where artificial metrics attract real investment.

Will the Fed Still Cut Interest Rates? Tonight's Data Is Crucial

The core debate surrounding the Federal Reserve's potential interest rate cuts is intensifying amid geopolitical conflict and rebounding inflation. The key question is whether high energy prices will cause persistent inflation or weaken consumer demand enough to force the Fed to cut rates. Citigroup presents a bullish case for cuts, arguing that oil supply disruptions from the Strait of Hormuz are temporary and will not lead to lasting inflationary pressure. They point to receding bond yields and oil prices as evidence the market is pricing in a short-lived shock. Citi's data also shows tightening financial conditions, a stabilizing labor market, and healthy tax returns, supporting their view that the path to lower rates remains open. Conversely, Deutsche Bank offers a starkly contrasting, more hawkish outlook. They argue the Fed's current policy is already neutral and expect rates to remain unchanged indefinitely. Their view is based on stalled disinflation progress and a shift toward more hawkish rhetoric from key Fed officials like Waller, who cited risks from prolonged Middle East conflict and tariffs. Other officials, including Williams and Hammack, signaled rates would likely stay on hold for a "considerable time." The market pricing has shifted dramatically, now forecasting zero cuts in 2026. The imminent release of the March retail sales "control group" data is highlighted as a critical test. This metric, which excludes gas station sales, will reveal if high gasoline prices are eroding consumer spending in other areas. A weak reading could support the case for imminent rate cuts, while a strong one would bolster the argument for the Fed to hold steady. This data is pivotal for determining the near-term policy path.
