Digital asset investment product outflows reached a record weekly level, according to a report by CoinShares.

“While the outflows are the largest on record, they aren’t when expressed as a percentage of total assets under management, that record was on May 2019,” the report said. A full $52 million of outflows that May represented 1.9% of AUM, according to CoinShares.
This comes as the crypto market has suffered a month of uncertainty with crypto-friendly bank Silvergate collapsing and investors concern over the U.S. banking sector’s health.
The report noted that the outflows have wiped out all of the inflows from earlier this year, with outflows totaling $82 million year to date.
UPDATE (March 13, 2023 18:30 UTC): Clarifies the $52 million of outflows was in May 2019.

Pudgy Penguins is emerging as one of the strongest NFT-native brands of this cycle, shifting from speculative “digital luxury goods” into a multi-vertical consumer IP platform. Its strategy is to acquire users through mainstream channels first; toys, retail partnerships and viral media, then onboard them into Web3 through games, NFTs and the PENGU token.
The ecosystem now spans phygital products (> $13M retail sales and >1M units sold), games and experiences (Pudgy Party surpassed 500k downloads in two weeks), and a widely distributed token (airdropped to 6M+ wallets). While the market is currently pricing Pudgy at a premium relative to traditional IP peers, sustained success depends on execution across retail expansion, gaming adoption and deeper token utility.
