JPMorgan analysts estimate that around $50 billion has flowed into digital assets so far in 2026. That puts the annualized pace at about $66 billion, above May's level but still around half of last year's pace.
JPMorgan analysts estimate around $50 billion in digital-asset inflows for 2026 year to date. The annualized pace is about $66 billion, up from $52 billion in May, according to the analysts. It remains around half of last year's pace.
ETF flows turn positive for the year
Flows into crypto ETF products improved from August and were positive for the year, JPMorgan's analysts said. However, cumulative ETF flows remained negative when counted from the downturn that started on October 10, 2025.
The two readings use different starting points: one covers 2026 flows, the other begins with the October 2025 downturn. The recovery since August has therefore not reversed the cumulative outflows over the longer period.
CME futures positions rise, miners have been net sellers
Institutional positions in bitcoin and ether futures on CME increased over the past two months after a slow start to the year, according to the JPMorgan analysis.
Bitcoin miners, however, have been net sellers this year. Their total net selling is around $1.8 billion, the analysts said, even as the estimated inflow pace rose from May.
