Digital Asset Investment Product Sees Third Consecutive Week of Inflows, Totaling $1.06 Billion
On March 16, a Coinshares report revealed digital asset investment products posted inflows for the third straight week, totaling $1.06 billion. This underscores their resilience amid geopolitical tensions and further cements Bitcoin’s status as a relative safe-haven asset.
Notably, U.S. investors accounted for 96% of the inflows, while Hong Kong saw its largest weekly inflows since August 2025. Germany recorded its first weekly outflows of the year. Ethereum drew $315 million in inflows, partly driven by the launch of a new U.S. staking ETF, pushing its year-to-date flows near neutral.

Tom Lee: Expects U.S. Stocks to Enter Bear Market This Year, But Not Before Hitting New High
On March 16, in a recent CNBC interview, Tom Lee said the S&P 500 will continue rising in the coming weeks after narrow fluctuations through most of this year—but the U.S. stock market will enter a bear market later in 2024, even after first hitting a new record high.
Lee also warned bearish forces in the market could fully take hold as the year draws to a close.

Our call is the market will rise before month-end, finish March higher, and could reach 7,300 points. But a bear market may emerge later this year.”
On oil prices, Lee explained why a surge would be bullish for stocks:
“First, the U.S. is an oil exporter, so our economy benefits from higher oil prices. Second, most other countries are importers—so the U.S. outperforms

This ownership structure is unique to Bitcoin, signaling a cohort of long-term “hodlers” who are unfazed by Bitcoin’s price volatility and view it as a “store of value” tool.
This dynamic comes amid Bitcoin’s significant underperformance relative to gold last year. Nearly 14% of Bitcoin is held by ETFs, digital asset treasuries (including corporate treasuries), and governments. Bitcoin’s resilient capital base is growing.
