Roughly $6 million was invested into multi-asset products.Bitcoin (BTC) products represent nearly 78% of institutional AUM with $50 billion, followed by Ether with $10.7 billion or 16.8% crypto product exposure. All other crypto assets represent less than 1% of capital locked in the sector, with Binance Coin representing $571 million, DOT representing $45 million, and Bitcoin Cash representing $16 million.In addition to large inflows, institutional trade volume surged, gaining 59% week-over-week to tag $4.8 billion.
