The surge coincided with Bitcoin breaking above $80,000 mid-week amid improving sentiment around the CLARITY Act stablecoin yield compromise.

The US led the buying with $776.6 million, a sharp recovery from the previous week. Germany added $50.6 million, Switzerland $21.1 million, and the Netherlands $5.0 million.

Total assets under management in digital asset investment products rose to $160 billion.
