Gloom persists among cryptocurrency investors. This is suggested by the latest weekly report from CoinShares. Investment products in digital assets thus recorded a 4th consecutive week of decline.During the past week, capital outflows, outflows, are however contained to only 17 million dollars. Volumes are also low over this same period.Source : CoinSharesBitcoin volumes down 15%Investment product volumes were $844 million. However, this trend is consistent with the situation observed for all Bitcoin market volumes.These are displayed "on average at $ 57 billion, or 15% less than usual", underlines CoinShares. Note also a trend reversal between the United States and Europe.Regionally, the sentiment seems to have reversed, with the United States seeing inflows totaling $7.6 million, while Europe saw outflows totaling $23 million. ”Short-Bitcoin Provides Unsatisfactory ReturnsThe main point of attention remains Bitcoin. The crypto-asset records outflows for the 4th consecutive week. It therefore sets the tone for all investment products.Some investors seem to favor short-term strategies, for a very moderate gain nonetheless. Thus the inflow on the short-bitcoin is 1.8 million dollars. The indicator is in the green for the third week in a row, but the results should be put into perspective.Despite recent inflows into short bitcoins, total assets under management (AuM) have only increased by 4.2% since the start of the year, while long bitcoins' AuM have increased by 36%”, analysts say.CoinShares concludes “that short positions have not produced the returns that some investors have been expecting this year so far.”Altcoins stalled tooThe company deduces a second hypothesis. The shorting “likely reflects continued investor concerns about regulatory uncertainty for the asset class.”This sentiment affects all tokens. Thus, entries are minor on the altcoin side. The inflow amounts for Ethereum and Solana to respectively 0.7 and 0.34 million dollars.As for BNB and Cosmos, they ended the week in negative territory with outflows of $0.38 million and $0.21 million respectively.Blockchain equity investors meanwhile “follow the trend, remaining bullish with inflows of $1.6 million last week.”
