In a newly published report, CoinShares found that Uniswap’s UNI token led the group of altcoins that saw inflows in the last week with a total inflow of $100,000.
All of the altcoins reviewed by Coinshares logged inflows totaling $3.9 million last week, with UNI contributing a 3% share of the entire sum.
Coinshares reported that last week was marked with minor outflows, which amounted to $17 million pulled out by investors.
While noting that the outflows were spread across several digital assets, it stated further that the outflows logged came at a period where the cryptocurrency market suffered low trading volume despite the uptick in prices of crypto assets.
This, according to Coinshares, might mean that investors have started to take profits.
