For the third consecutive week, digital asset investment products last week saw outflows — this time, to the tune of US$28 million, according to CoinShares, Europe’s largest digital assets fund manager.

Bitcoin saw the majority of outflows, but multi-asset investment products remained positive with inflows of US$3.1 million.
