BlackRock digital asset funds drew $15 billion as crypto price drop cut holdings value

Strong net inflows over the past year were overshadowed by weaker cryptocurrency prices, which reduced the market value of assets held in the funds.

Summary

BlackRock’s digital asset funds brought in $15 billion in net inflows over the past year, showing continued investor demand for crypto-linked products. Even so, falling cryptocurrency prices sharply reduced the value of the assets held by those funds, underscoring how market declines can outweigh fresh capital entering digital asset vehicles.
