Crypto exchange-traded products (ETPs) logged $2.48 billion in inflows last week, data from CoinShares showed Monday.

Despite inflows, Bitcoin (BTC) struggled in terms of market price, slipping under $108,000 after briefly trading above $113,000 earlier in the week, according to CoinGecko data.

Ether (ETH) also tumbled under $4,300 after starting the week above $4,600, echoing Bitcoin’s turbulence.

Spot Ether ETPs retain dominance

Last week’s inflows were notable following $1.4 billion in outflows the previous week, but remained far short of the $4.4 billion record set in July.

Spot Ether exchange-traded funds (ETF) retained market dominance last week, attracting $1.4 billion in inflows, while Bitcoin funds recorded smaller gains of $748 million.
