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.

U.S. Tax Service Details New Cryptocurrency Fraud Scheme

The U.S. Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has warned of a new cryptocurrency fraud scheme. Scammers are sending paper letters impersonating official U.S. Department of the Treasury and IRS correspondence. These letters urge Americans to urgently register on a non-existent platform called the "Digital Asset Compliance Portal." The fraudulent letters contain QR codes linking to a phishing website disguised as the official IRS site. Victims are prompted to disclose their cryptocurrency exchange or wallet provider (examples given include Coinbase, Kraken, and Ledger) and the amount of crypto assets they hold. Jarod Koopman, Chief of the IRS Criminal Investigation Division, stated that criminals are exploiting public trust in government institutions by creating convincing fake websites and official-looking correspondence. According to the investigation, the infrastructure for this scam was set up just days before the mailing campaign began, using a domain registered through a Hong Kong-based registrar. The IRS assured taxpayers that it does not require them to provide wallet information via third-party sites or to click links from suspicious messages. The agency advised Americans to verify the authenticity of any notifications through official channels, such as making a phone call. This alert follows a recent FBI warning about a separate fraudulent scheme targeting cryptocurrency wallet holders on the Tron network.

Inside the Fed, Hawkish Sentiments Strengthen: Three Members Explain Why They Want an Interest Rate Hike!

Although the U.S. Federal Reserve held interest rates steady as expected in July, several officials dissented, advocating for an increase. Cleveland Fed President Beth Hammack argued that high inflation is likely persistent and won't spontaneously fall to the 2% target, warning that delays could necessitate more aggressive future hikes. Minneapolis Fed President Neel Kashkari emphasized the risk of inflation becoming entrenched, favoring a gradual tightening approach. He suggested small, preemptive steps would allow the Fed to better manage the economic impact compared to waiting and potentially needing harsher measures later. Dallas Fed President Lorie Logan also supported a rate hike, stressing the need for immediate action to address high inflation. All three officials had similarly opposed the decision to pause rate hikes at the Fed's April meeting.

Has Bitcoin Bottomed, or Is a 'Shakeout' Approaching? What's the Situation with XRP?

Cryptocurrency analytics platform Santiment shared key insights on Bitcoin and altcoin markets, highlighting significant signals from on-chain data. Analysis shows Bitcoin's 365-day MVRV ratio has fallen to -26%, indicating substantial losses for long-term holders, a level historically associated with market bottom formations and long-term buying opportunities. While short-term MVRV is near breakeven, suggesting no clear directional signal, the annual perspective points to a bottom before bullish cycles. On-chain data reveals divergent behavior: large wallets (10-10,000 BTC) have been accumulating, adding ~18,500 BTC in 10 days, while smaller retail investors continue buying dips. Analysts caution that high retail demand can sometimes create a risk of a final market shakeout or correction. The altcoin market shows a mixed picture. Ethereum's 365-day MVRV is around -33%, but recent monthly gains combined with overly optimistic social sentiment pose a short-term correction risk. XRP is in oversold territory with 30-day and 365-day MVRVs at -57.5% and -45.5% respectively, signaling potential for a strong mid-to-long term rebound. Social activity and optimism are rising for Solana, while investor sentiment remains calmer towards Cardano. Future direction for Bitcoin and altcoins depends not only on on-chain metrics but also on macroeconomic and regulatory developments. The Federal Reserve's interest rate decision and upcoming policy rulings are increasing market volatility expectations, while uncertainty around the U.S. Congressional clarity process continues to pressure pricing. *This is not investment advice.

Rumors Spread About Altcoin: Former Employees Speak Out

Rumors are circulating about the Solana-based meme launchpad Pump.fun allegedly conducting employee layoffs just before significant token unlocks. According to reports, the company began terminating employees around two months before their $PUMP tokens were scheduled to vest. At least one former employee reportedly lost tokens now valued at over $1 million. Internal documents suggest Pump.fun cited overly rapid growth as a reason for layoffs starting in early April. Terminated employees were offered severance, but the major loss stemmed from forfeiting their allocated $PUMP tokens per their agreements, which stipulated a four-year vesting schedule. A second wave of layoffs reportedly occurred in mid-July, with claims that some employees were dismissed just one day before their tokens unlocked. The total number of employees let go over two months is said to exceed 40. Pump.fun co-founders have not commented. Despite an approximate 79% drop from its 2025 peak, $PUMP retains substantial value. The platform itself has been highly profitable since late 2024, generating around $1.3 billion in total revenue and facilitating the creation of over 20.8 million tokens, with daily revenue reportedly still near $1 million.

Ethereum Experiences a 43-Day Queue for Staking: But According to One Expert, This Is Not a True Bull Signal

A 43-day queue has formed for staking on Ethereum, with about 2.5 million ETH awaiting activation due to a surge in new validators. However, Thomas Brunner of Sygnum Bank cautions that this backlog should not be seen as a direct bullish signal. He explains it reflects institutional demand but is heavily influenced by Ethereum's protocol mechanics, like the post-Dencun daily validator activation limit of ~57,600 ETH, unchanged with the Pectra upgrade. Pectra allows topping up existing validators, but even small additions join the same activation queue as new stakers. Therefore, the queue comprises not just new investor demand but also restaking and reward compounding from existing participants. Brunner suggests a stronger positive signal is the nearly empty withdrawal queue, indicating current stakers are holding. He notes institutional interest persists despite ETH price weakness, viewing staking yield as a core feature, though privacy concerns over on-chain traceability remain a key barrier to faster institutional adoption.
