analysis: Bitcoin funds saw over $700 million in weekly inflows, with institutional capital entering the crypto market for five consecutive weeks
CoinShares data shows crypto funds saw net inflows of $858 million last week, marking the fifth consecutive week of inflows and the largest single-week inflow since the end of April. Among them, Bitcoin funds attracted over $700 million in a single week, with year-to-date inflows reaching $4.9 billion, indicating sustained growth in institutional investor demand for the crypto market.Market analysis suggests that positive expectations related to the "Clarity Act" have driven an improvement in institutional sentiment. Currently, BTC prices remain above the $80,000 mark, with the market watching for a potential breakout of the 200-day moving average near $82,000. Marex analysts point out that if Bitcoin manages a daily close above $82,000 accompanied by stable spot buying, it could initiate a new upward trend.In the altcoin space, SUI rose 12% in 24 hours to $1.26. Mysten Labs co-founder Adeniyi Abiodun revealed that Sui plans to launch confidential transaction features this year to support fee-free private payments. Additionally, Nasdaq-listed Sui Group Holdings (SUIG) previously announced that it has staked most of its reserve SUI, effectively reducing the circulating market supply by approximately 2.7%.

Mysten Labs Co-founder: Sui has processed over $1 trillion in stablecoin transaction volume since August last year
Mysten Labs co-founder Adeniyi Abiodun stated at Consensus 2026 that the Sui network has processed over $1 trillion in stablecoin transaction volume since August last year, and plans to launch zero-fee stablecoin transfers and privacy payment features.Abiodun stated that Sui aims to become the "default network for the future flow of funds," noting that current traditional cross-border payment systems charge excessively high fees. For example, transferring $100 to Nigeria could incur a $35 fee. Future financial systems should not be as fully public as social media, and users require stronger privacy protection capabilities. Sui is developing a storage layer that supports encrypted transaction intents to accommodate AI Agent-driven automated payments as well as future refund and fraud handling mechanisms. Additionally, Sui is currently testing quantum-resistant signature technology on its testnet, aiming to complete deployment before the EU's quantum security requirements take effect in 2030. Abiodun also expressed willingness to coordinate with the Bitcoin ecosystem and open-source the relevant research.However, Sui has recently faced technical stability challenges, with its mainnet experiencing several hours of downtime in January 2026. The current price of SUI is approximately $0.99, down about 81% from its all-time high of $5.35 set in January 2025. (The Block)
