A broad range of altcoins followed suit, with Ethereum seeing $89 million in outflows, Tron losing $32 million, and Aave shedding $2.4 million.

In contrast, select digital assets such as Solana, XRP, and Sui attracted fresh capital, recording inflows of $16.4 million, $5.6 million, and $2.7 million, respectively.

Investment vehicles tied to blockchain-related equity were not spared from the downturn, experiencing $48 million in outflows over the past week.

Meanwhile, some international investors took advantage of lower prices. Switzerland, Canada, and Germany recorded inflows of $23 million, $47 million, and $13.3 million, respectively.
