Institutional investors just bought an overall total of $1.2 billion in Bitcoin and crypto assets in one week, according to a new update from CoinShares.

The inflows mark the fourth consecutive positive week for digital asset investment products.

Bitcoin dominated the buying with $933 million in new capital. This brings Bitcoin’s year-to-date inflows to $4.0 billion. Ethereum added $192 million, marking its third consecutive week of inflows above $190 million. Short-Bitcoin products drew another $16.5 million.

The United States led regional flows with $1.1 billion and Germany recorded $61.7 million, more than double the prior week.

Switzerland reversed the previous week’s $138 million outflow with $35.2 million in inflows, while Canada saw $15 million enter its products.

Total assets under management climbed to $155 billion, which is the highest level since February 1st, although it remains below the October 2025 peak of $263 billion.

CoinShares noted the inflows reflect improving institutional demand amid Bitcoin trading at its highest levels since early February ahead of this week’s FOMC decision.

Walsh emphasized that the Federal Reserve is clearly committed to achieving price stability and does not support prematurely predicting the outcome of monetary policy meetings or disclosing possible policy actions for the remaining meetings in 2026 in advance. Inflation is not an issue unique to the United States. Currently, most regions around the world are tightening monetary policy simultaneously, which means no country can "free ride." Walsh also announced that the Federal Reserve’s Productivity and Employment Working Group will hold a field hearing in the San Francisco Bay Area on November 16 to examine a variety of issues, including the economic impact of artificial intelligence.

Will the expansion of U.S. Treasury repo become normalized? Will long-term bond issuance be reduced? Tonight, the U.S. Treasury Department will release a key signal.

Deutsche Bank pointed out that there are two key aspects to this survey: first, whether the expansion of long-term U.S. Treasury repo operations will become permanent; second, whether there will be a direct discussion about "eliminating 20-year U.S. Treasuries." Among them, the possible abolition of 20-year U.S. Treasuries is an extremely impactful potential topic. If this is explicitly addressed, it would be seen as a major policy signal from the Treasury Department in response to high yields, and is expected to trigger significant turbulence in the bond market.
