The crypto market recorded $1.1 billion in weekly inflows, marking its strongest performance since January and pushing total market capitalization to $2.52 trillion. The surge reflects renewed investor confidence driven by improving macro conditions and easing geopolitical tensions.
Bitcoin led the inflows with $872 million, reinforcing its dominance, while Ethereum followed with $196 million despite remaining in year-to-date outflows. XRP also posted modest gains, whereas Solana saw slight outflows, highlighting mixed sentiment across altcoins.
The rally was supported by softer U.S. economic data and expectations of potential rate cuts, alongside a temporary geopolitical ceasefire that boosted risk appetite. Trading volumes also increased, though still below yearly averages.
Despite the positive momentum, early-week ETF outflows suggest caution among investors. The Fear and Greed Index remains in extreme fear, indicating that sentiment has yet to fully recover.
Overall, the market shows signs of recovery, but sustained momentum will depend on continued inflows and macro stability.$BTC
