2 hours ago

March 9 — Per Coinshares’ latest weekly report, digital asset investment products saw a net inflow of $619 million last week, signaling the broader cryptocurrency market retained some resilience amid geopolitical unrest tied to the Iran situation. Data shows sentiment was bullish early in the week, with $1.44 billion flowing in over the first three days—but outflows hit $829 million on Thursday and Friday as oil prices climbed. Regionally, the U.S. accounted for nearly all inflows, posting a net $646 million. Europe, Asia, and Canada, by contrast, saw outflows of $23.8 million, $2.2 million, and $3.6 million respectively, indicating investors in those regions remained more cautious overall. By asset class, Bitcoin continued to dominate fund flows with a net $521 million inflow. Ethereum and Solana also saw inflows of $88.5 million and $14.6 million, while Uniswap and Chainlink each received minor inflows of roughly $1.4 million. Among major assets, only XRP posted significant outflows, totaling around $30.3 million. The report concludes that despite escalating geopolitical tensions and rising oil prices, overall fund flows still reflect investors’ relatively positive outlook on the digital asset space.

On-chain Tokenization of Real-World Assets Surpasses $25 Billion, Nearly Quadrupling in One Year

On March 9, CoinDesk data shows that on-chain tokenization of real-world assets (RWA)—excluding stablecoins—has surpassed $25 billion, nearly quadrupling from roughly $6.4 billion a year ago. Over the past year, several traditional asset management firms have ramped up tokenized product launches, with BlackRock, Fidelity Investments and WisdomTree all rolling out related tokenized fund offerings. Currently, six asset classes have on-chain values exceeding $1 billion: U.S. Treasuries, commodities, private credit, institutional alternative funds, corporate bonds and non-U.S. government bonds. U.S. Treasury products have seen particularly strong growth, with the number of related tokenized offerings rising from 35 to more than 50. Industry data, however, indicates the current RWA market growth stems primarily from institutional issuance—not secondary trading. A large share of on-chain transfer volume is concentrated at the $10 million level, meaning institutions typically allocat

It currently trades at $8.2 million, with a 250% 24-hour gain and roughly $8.3 million in trading volume over the same period.
