Özet

Cryptocurrency investment products recorded their second consecutive week of inflows, attracting $716 million, following a previous week of $1 billion in gains. This marks a recovery after a significant $5.5 billion selloff over four weeks, bringing total assets under management to over $180 billion—an 8% rebound from November lows, though still below the all-time high of $264 billion. Bitcoin led inflows with $352 million, followed by XRP with $244 million. Chainlink saw a record inflow of $52.8 million, representing 54% of its AUM. Ether had minor inflows of $39 million, while short Bitcoin products saw outflows, suggesting reduced negative sentiment. Among issuers, ProShares led with $210 million in inflows, while BlackRock experienced $105 million in outflows. Geographically, the U.S., Germany, and Canada saw the highest inflows, whereas Sweden continued to record outflows.

Cryptocurrency investment products maintained upward momentum last week, logging two consecutive weeks of gains following substantial outflows.

Crypto exchange-traded products (ETPs) attracted $716 million in inflows last week, adding to the previous week’s gains of $1 billion, European crypto asset manager CoinShares reported Monday.

“Daily data highlighted minor outflows on Thursday and Friday in what we believe was a response to macroeconomic data in the US alluding to ongoing inflationary pressures,” CoinShares’ head of research, James Butterfill, said in the update.

The new inflows pushed total assets under management (AUM) above $180 billion, marking an 8% rebound from November lows following $5.5 billion of four-week outflows. However, AUM remains well below its all-time high of $264 billion, Butterfill noted.

Bitcoin leads inflows, Chainlink posts record inflow

Bitcoin (BTC) led crypto ETP gains last week, attracting $352 million in inflows, followed by XRP (XRP) funds with $244 million.

Chainlink (LINK) stood out with a record inflow of $52.8 million, which represented 54% of its AUM.

On the other hand, Ether (ETH) funds saw minor inflows of $39 million, while short Bitcoin ETPs posted around $19 million in outflows, potentially indicating a lessening of negative sentiment.

ProShares tops inflows, while BlackRock’s iShares bleeds

Among issuers, ProShares led inflows with $210 million, while BlackRock — the largest issuer by AUM — experienced $105 million in outflows.

Cathie Wood’s ARK and Grayscale Investments also saw outflows, recording $78 million and $7 million, respectively, last week.

South Korean Stock Market Sees Sharp Rebound After Forceful De-leveraging, SK Hynix Rises 30%

On July 31, South Korean stocks staged a historic rebound. The benchmark KOSPI index surged 18.27%, with chipmaker SK Hynix hitting a 30% gain limit. This followed a brutal, near-40% decline in the KOSPI over the previous month, driven largely by a deleveraging spiral involving leveraged ETFs. Analysts attributed the sharp sell-off to structural liquidity issues rather than deteriorating corporate fundamentals. The rally was triggered by a confluence of positive catalysts. Firstly, strong earnings from U.S. cloud giants Microsoft and Amazon alleviated fears of an "AI bubble burst," boosting global tech sentiment. Secondly, SK Group Chairman Chey Tae-won made a rare personal purchase of SK Hynix shares, seen as a strong vote of confidence. Thirdly, the South Korean government announced a 20 trillion won ($139 billion) AI investment fund. In response to the market turmoil, South Korean regulators are tightening controls on leveraged ETFs, admitting oversight shortcomings. Measures include raising minimum cash保证金 requirements for散户 investors and suspending new product launches. While the rebound signals eased liquidity pressure, analysts note deep structural issues remain. The market's future stability is seen as dependent on global tech capital expenditure trends and memory chip price cycles, with some viewing the surge as a technical correction rather than a definitive trend reversal.

Cryptocurrency Company Wintermute Makes Pessimistic Statements Regarding Expected Altcoin Growth! Here are the Details

Crypto market maker Wintermute has made a pessimistic assessment regarding the anticipated altcoin season, suggesting that any upcoming rally may benefit only a limited number of projects. The company reports a record 72% of its spot OTC trading volume in H1 2026 came from institutional clients, whose capital is becoming more selective and concentrated. Data shows institutional traders act quickly on price spikes, while retail interest lasts longer. This selective behavior indicates the classic altcoin season, where hundreds of tokens rise simultaneously, may be changing. Wintermute believes only projects with strong use cases, high liquidity, and institutional appeal will stand out. Supporting this view, CryptoQuant data shows altcoin trading volume against Bitcoin is near its lowest since 2021, with the top 10 altcoins (excluding stablecoins) holding about 80.5% of the total altcoin market cap. Similarly, Kaiko reports that the top 10 altcoins now account for 63% of total altcoin trading volume, up from ~50% a few months ago, indicating capital concentration. Analysts suggest that in the current cautious institutional climate, projects with advanced technology, liquidity, and robust ecosystems will attract disproportionate attention. Therefore, any potential new altcoin season may be less broad than past bull markets, with gains concentrated in a narrower set of promising tokens.

UNI Activates Fee Switch: Uniswap Completes Commercial Debut, Faces First Test in September

Uniswap's Fee Switch activation on V4 has driven a surge in protocol revenue, with daily income jumping from $118,000 to $318,000. The newly launched Robinhood Chain has become the primary contributor, accounting for over 52% of total revenue, largely fueled by meme coin trading. This revenue fuels a new tokenomic "flywheel": fees accumulate in a pool, incentivizing arbitrageurs to buy and burn UNI tokens, creating deflationary pressure and boosting the token's price. However, concerns loom beneath the surface. Uniswap's revenue is now highly concentrated and dependent on the speculative, volatile activity on Robinhood Chain, which is currently subsidized by free gas fees. This subsidy is set to expire in late September, posing a significant test for sustained transaction volume and, consequently, protocol revenue. Furthermore, UNI's high valuation faces pressure if growth expectations aren't met. Debate also centers on the Fee Switch's impact. While Uniswap founder Hayden Adams clarified that the protocol fee is an "add-on" for traders and does not cut into Liquidity Providers' (LPs) existing share, questions remain about whether higher overall trading costs could indirectly reduce volume and LP earnings over time. Despite these challenges, Uniswap's Fee Switch marks a major step in protocol monetization, with its long-term success hinging on cultivating more sustainable usage beyond speculative trading.

OpenAI Cuts Price of Luna Token by 80% as Chinese Open-Weight Models Capture Token Market Share

On July 30th, OpenAI slashed the price of its most affordable and fastest model, GPT-5.6 Luna, by 80%. This significant price cut comes just about three weeks after the GPT-5.6 series first became available to users. Concurrently, reports indicate that OpenAI has reduced investments in its Luna and Terra projects by 80% and 20%, respectively. The article attributes this strategic shift to increasing competitive pressure from Chinese open-weight AI models, which are now reportedly processing three times more tokens than their American counterparts.

Coinbase Revenue Falls in Q2 Amid Market Slowdown, but Non-Trading Services Expand

Coinbase reported mixed Q2 results amidst a crypto market slowdown. Total revenue fell 14% quarter-over-quarter to $1.22 billion, driven by a 24% decline in trading volume to $146.4 billion, resulting in a net loss of $359 million. However, the company grew its market share to a record 10.3%. A key positive was the expansion of non-trading services, which accounted for 48% of total net revenue. The stablecoin segment remained significant with $20 billion in average USDC balances. Most notably, revenue from prediction markets surged 106% sequentially, now generating over $100 million annually. This shift highlights Coinbase's strategic diversification beyond core trading, as it invests in new products to adapt to market conditions and user demand.
