Solana has now attracted a total of $241 million worth of assets under management, which makes it the fifth-most popular cryptocurrency with institutional investors.

Bitcoin funds saw $98 million worth of inflows, attracting the biggest share of investment capital.

Ethereum-linked investment products come in a distant third place with $10.2 million. Funds tied to Cardano and Polkadot brought in $1.8 million and 1.2 million worth of fresh funds, respectively.

Overall, $193 million were injected into all cryptocurrency funds last week, which marks the biggest amount of money since mid-December. The figure shows that institutional investors are regaining confidence in the crypto market, which has been caught in a bearish trend over the past several months. Last week, for comparison, crypto funds saw $47 million worth of outflows.

XRP is the only cryptocurrency to record negative inflows over the last week, with investors withdrawing $1 million from funds tied to the controversial Ripple-affiliated cryptocurrency.

Europe accounted for the lion's share of inflows (76%). American funds were responsible for the rest of the sum.

The overall amount of crypto under management currently stands at $57 billion, with Grayscale accounting for the vast majority of the sum.

Blockchain-related equities also followed the general trend, recording $23 million worth of inflows over the past week.

The whole cryptocurrency market is now in a recovery mood, with the price of Bitcoin recently reaching a multi-month high of $48,000.

Terra (LUNA) is leading the market with a 7.91% price increase over the last 24 hours.
