en en de de it it es es
  • La semana pasada, los criptoactivos superaron significativamente a los activos tradicionales: Ethereum superó los 4.300 USD – su nivel más alto desde diciembre de 2021 – mientras que Bitcoin alcanzó los 121.000 USD, acercándose a su anterior máximo histórico.
  • Nuestro Cryptoasset Sentiment Index interno se ha recuperado con fuerza desde sus recientes mínimos y vuelve a señalar un sentimiento alcista.
  • Gráfico de la semana: Según los últimos datos disponibles, aproximadamente 12,2 billones de dólares se gestionan en planes de pensiones 401(k) y otros planes de aportación definida (defined-contribution retirement plans), una cifra superior al total de activos gestionados en los ETF estadounidenses (~10,6 billones de dólares). Incluso pequeñas (re)asignaciones de capital podrían tener un impacto muy significativo en el mercado de ETF spot de Bitcoin, donde actualmente se gestionan unos 150.600 millones de dólares.

Rendimiento

Ether subió hasta un 2,9% en la mañana del lunes en Asia, superando los 4.300 USD – su nivel más alto desde diciembre de 2021 – mientras que Bitcoin alcanzó los 121.000 USD, acercándose a su anterior máximo histórico.

El principal catalizador para ambos criptoactivos sigue siendo el recién Executive Order firmado por Trump, que permite el acceso a activos digitales en los planes de pensiones 401(k) y otros planes de aportación definida. Este mayor acceso podría atraer potencialmente miles de millones de dólares adicionales hacia los criptoactivos, dada la gran magnitud de dichos planes en Estados Unidos.

Según los últimos datos disponibles, aproximadamente 12,2 billones de dólares se gestionan en planes de pensiones 401(k) y otros planes de aportación definida, una cifra superior al total de activos gestionados en los ETF estadounidenses (~10,6 billones de dólares). Incluso pequeñas (re)asignaciones de capital podrían tener un impacto muy significativo en el mercado de ETF spot de Bitcoin, donde actualmente se gestionan unos 150.600 millones de dólares (Gráfico de la semana).

Más en detalle, basándonos en la sensibilidad histórica del rendimiento de Bitcoin a los cambios en los flujos semanales globales de ETP, estimamos que por cada punto porcentual de asignación de estos planes de aportación definida (actualmente alrededor de 122.000 millones de dólares), el precio de Bitcoin podría aumentar aproximadamente un 63%(!).

De hecho, los planes 401(k) tienden a invertir principalmente a través de ETF, por lo que es razonable suponer que los ETF spot estadounidenses de Bitcoin (y Ethereum) atraerán la mayor parte de estos nuevos flujos de capital.

También es plausible que los planes 401(k) y otros planes de aportación definida puedan reasignar entre el 1% y el 5% del capital a ETF de criptoactivos, según los resultados de la última encuesta de Bitwise/VettaFi a asesores financieros. Dicho esto, solo una quinta parte de los asesores (22%) indicó en la encuesta que invierte efectivamente en criptoactivos. Sin embargo, la adopción continua de Bitcoin y otros criptoactivos casi con toda seguridad aumentará esta proporción a medio y largo plazo.

Además, el rendimiento superior de Ether se ve reforzado por el creciente interés de los inversores institucionales y de los compradores corporativos de tesorería. Este año, más de 6.700 millones de dólares ya han fluido hacia los nueve ETF de Ether cotizados en Estados Unidos, mientras que empresas de tesorería de activos digitales como BitMine (BMNR) de Tom Lee han acumulado unos 13.000 millones de dólares en Ether, según datos de strategicethreserve.xyz. La semana pasada, los ETP globales de Ethereum atrajeron ligeramente más capital (+256 millones de dólares) que los ETP globales de Bitcoin (+227 millones de dólares).

En conjunto, el rendimiento superior de Ether frente a Bitcoin y a los altcoins en general tiende a señalar un aumento del apetito por el riesgo, lo que es positivo para el conjunto del mercado de criptoactivos.

En general, entre los 10 principales criptoactivos, Chainlink, Dogecoin y Ethereum fueron los que registraron un rendimiento relativo superior.

En conjunto, el rendimiento superior de los altcoins frente a Bitcoin se aceleró significativamente la semana pasada, con un 95% de los altcoins que seguimos logrando superar a Bitcoin en términos semanales. Ethereum también superó ampliamente a Bitcoin la semana pasada.

Sentimiento

Nuestro Cryptoasset Sentiment Index interno ha revertido la tendencia desde los mínimos alcanzados en abril de 2025, situándose ahora en 0,57.

Actualmente, 2 de los 15 indicadores están por encima de su tendencia a corto plazo.

Los flujos de entrada hacia los exchanges de BTC (BTC Exchange Inflows) y la volatilidad implícita a 1 mes de BTC (BTC 1-month Implied Vol) fueron dos indicadores que mostraron desarrollos positivos respecto a la semana anterior.

El Crypto Fear & Greed Index señala actualmente un nivel “Neutral” de 59/100, 11 puntos más que la semana pasada.

La dispersión de rendimiento entre criptoactivos se mantuvo estable durante la mayor parte de la semana pasada, pero terminó ligeramente más alta en 0,54, lo que indica que los altcoins han seguido mostrando una alta correlación con el rendimiento de Bitcoin.

El rendimiento superior de los altcoins frente a Bitcoin ha disminuido respecto a la semana anterior, con alrededor del 95% de los altcoins que seguimos aún superando a Bitcoin en términos semanales. Ethereum también superó a Bitcoin la semana pasada.

En general, un aumento (o disminución) del rendimiento superior de los altcoins tiende a ser señal de un aumento (o disminución) del apetito por el riesgo en los mercados de criptoactivos, y el último comportamiento indica un incremento del apetito por el riesgo en este momento.

El sentimiento en los mercados financieros tradicionales, medido por nuestro indicador interno Cross Asset Risk Appetite (CARA), también ha aumentado, pasando de 0,33 a 0,5.

Flujos de fondos

Los flujos semanales hacia ETP globales de criptoactivos se aceleraron respecto a la semana anterior.

Los ETP globales de criptoactivos registraron alrededor de +490,9 millones de USD de entradas netas semanales en todas las clases de criptoactivos, después de +844,9 millones de USD la semana anterior.

Los ETP globales de Bitcoin registraron entradas netas totales de +226,9 millones de USD la semana pasada, de los cuales -246,8 millones de USD de entradas netas se relacionaron con ETF spot de Bitcoin en Estados Unidos.

En Estados Unidos, el Bitwise Bitcoin ETF (BITB) registró entradas netas de +62,3 millones de USD la semana pasada.

En Europa, el Bitwise Physical Bitcoin ETP (BTCE) registró pequeñas salidas netas de -1,9 millones de USD, mientras que el Bitwise Core Bitcoin ETP (BTC1) tuvo ligeras entradas netas de +0,4 millones de USD.

El Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (GBTC) registró entradas netas de +3,4 millones de USD. El iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) tuvo entradas netas de alrededor de +188,9 millones de USD la semana pasada.

Mientras tanto, los flujos hacia los ETP globales de Ethereum se aceleraron la semana pasada, con alrededor de +256,4 millones de USD de entradas netas.

Los ETF spot de Ethereum en Estados Unidos también registraron entradas netas agregadas de alrededor de +326,8 millones de USD. El Grayscale Ethereum Trust (ETHE) tuvo entradas netas de +29,9 millones de USD.

El Bitwise Ethereum ETF (ETHW) en Estados Unidos también registró entradas netas de +32,6 millones de USD.

En Europa, el Bitwise Physical Ethereum ETP (ZETH) registró salidas netas de -20,6 millones de USD, mientras que el Bitwise Ethereum Staking ETP (ET32) tuvo salidas netas significativas de -12 millones de USD.

Los ETP de altcoins (excluyendo Ethereum) registraron entradas netas de +19,2 millones de USD la semana pasada.

No obstante, los ETP temáticos y basket crypto continuaron siendo desfavorecidos, con salidas netas de alrededor de -11,6 millones de USD la semana pasada. El Bitwise MSCI Digital Assets Select 20 ETP (DA20) tuvo entradas netas de alrededor de +0,5 millones de USD.

La exposición de los hedge funds globales de criptoactivos a Bitcoin aumentó la semana pasada. El beta móvil a 20 días del rendimiento de los hedge funds globales de criptoactivos frente a Bitcoin subió a alrededor de 0,43 al cierre de ayer, desde 0,38 la semana anterior.

Datos on-chain

La semana pasada, la actividad on-chain de Bitcoin reflejó el rendimiento superior de los mercados de criptoactivos frente a los activos tradicionales, debido a una mayor tolerancia al riesgo.

Los volúmenes netos de compra en los exchanges spot de Bitcoin en los últimos 7 días continuaron siendo negativos, pero se desaceleraron: los volúmenes netos de venta disminuyeron a aproximadamente -2,14 mil millones de USD, desde -3 mil millones la semana anterior.

Además, el indicador de “apparent demand” a 30 días para Bitcoin sigue registrando lecturas positivas, aunque se desaceleró notablemente durante la última semana, lo que sugiere un posible enfriamiento en la actividad de acumulación de los tenedores a corto plazo.

Asimismo, la actividad de las whales de Bitcoin ha cambiado notablemente, con los grandes tenedores mostrando ahora entradas netas hacia los exchanges, lo que indica distribución. En concreto, las direcciones whale depositaron un saldo neto de 26.762 BTC en los exchanges durante la última semana, señalando una menor disposición a acumular por parte de los principales holders.

El aumento de la aversión al riesgo, tanto en los mercados de criptoactivos como en los tradicionales, provocó una fuerte presión de venta sobre Bitcoin, en un contexto más amplio de huida de los activos de riesgo. Nuestro indicador Cross Asset Risk Appetite (CARA) aumentó de 0,31 a 0,5, subrayando el marcado cambio de sentimiento que llevó a los criptoactivos a superar a los activos tradicionales. Este entorno risk-on también favoreció el reciente rendimiento superior de Ethereum y otros altcoins.

No obstante, según los datos más recientes de Glassnode, la tendencia general a la baja de las reservas de Bitcoin en los exchanges sigue intacta. El nivel actual se sitúa en 2,906 millones de BTC, lo que representa aproximadamente el 14,6% de la oferta circulante total, aunque ligeramente por encima de la semana anterior.

Futuros, opciones y perpetuos

La semana pasada, el open interest en futuros de BTC disminuyó en -4,1k BTC en todos los exchanges y en +0,66k BTC en el CME. Mientras tanto, el open interest en contratos perpetuos aumentó en aproximadamente +2,8k BTC.

Las funding rates de los contratos perpetuos de BTC se mantuvieron positivas y continuaron al alza la semana pasada, lo que indica un sentimiento alcista entre los operadores en el mercado de futuros perpetuos, con predominio de posiciones largas.

En general, cuando la funding rate es positiva (negativa), las posiciones largas (cortas) pagan periódicamente a las cortas (largas), lo que refleja un sentimiento alcista (bajista).

El basis anualizado a 3 meses de BTC aumentó la semana pasada hasta alrededor del 8,4% p.a., promediado entre varios exchanges de futuros.

El open interest en opciones de BTC aumentó en aproximadamente +1,05k BTC, mientras que la relación put-call (put-call open interest ratio) cayó bruscamente a 0,35.

Mientras tanto, el skew a 25-delta a 1 mes para opciones de BTC (1-month P-C 25-delta skew) disminuyó durante la semana, pasando de +5,9% a +3,3%, lo que indica un mayor apetito por opciones call. La presencia de un skew positivo indica cierta preferencia por la protección a la baja.

Las volatilidades implícitas de las opciones de BTC disminuyeron ligeramente en comparación con la semana anterior, mientras que la volatilidad realizada a 1 mes subió hasta alrededor del 30,02% p.a.

En el momento de redactar este informe, las volatilidades implícitas de las opciones ATM de Bitcoin a 1 mes se sitúan alrededor del 32,76% p.a. en Deribit.

En conclusión

  • La semana pasada, los criptoactivos superaron significativamente a los activos tradicionales: Ethereum superó los 4.300 USD – su nivel más alto desde diciembre de 2021 – mientras que Bitcoin alcanzó los 121.000 USD, acercándose a su anterior máximo histórico.
  • Nuestro Cryptoasset Sentiment Index interno se ha recuperado con fuerza desde sus recientes mínimos y vuelve a señalar un sentimiento alcista.
  • Gráfico de la semana: Según los últimos datos disponibles, aproximadamente 12,2 billones de dólares se gestionan en planes de pensiones 401(k) y otros planes de aportación definida, una cifra superior al total de activos gestionados en los ETF estadounidenses (~10,6 billones de dólares). Incluso pequeñas (re)asignaciones de capital podrían tener un impacto muy significativo en el mercado de ETF spot de Bitcoin, donde actualmente se gestionan unos 150.600 millones de dólares.

Important Information – Please Read Before Proceeding

This website is operated by Bitwise Europe GmbH (“Bitwise”, “we”, “us”). The information on this website is intended for UK retail clients and other visitors in the United Kingdom. If you are not in the UK, local laws and rules may differ and the materials here may not be appropriate for you.

All content is provided for general information only. It does not constitute investment advice, tax or legal advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any investment and must not be relied upon to make an investment decision. You should consider whether an investment is suitable for your circumstances and, where appropriate, seek independent professional advice.

Cryptoassets and crypto-linked products are high-risk. The FCA categorises retail crypto promotions as Restricted Mass Market Investments (RMMI). As such, additional prominence, risk-warning and risk-summary requirements apply to retail communications. You could lose all the money you invest.

Investments in cryptoassets or many crypto-linked products are generally not covered by the UK Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) or the Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS). You should not expect to be protected if something goes wrong.

Access to certain pages, features, or transactions may be subject to client categorisation and appropriateness assessments required by FCA rules. We may ask you to complete checks or declarations before you can proceed.

Where this website contains a retail financial promotion for crypto or other RMMIs, you will see the FCA-prescribed risk warning and a link (“Take 2 mins to learn more”) to the FCA risk summary presented in a pop-up or dedicated page. For convenience, you can access that summary here at any time.

Where performance is shown, past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results. Any projections, targets, or forward-looking statements are inherently uncertain and may not be realised. Fees and expenses reduce returns.

Returns may be reduced by fees, charges, spreads, and taxes. Tax treatment depends on individual circumstances and may change. Seek professional advice if unsure.

Where a prospectus (including any base or supplemental prospectus) or KID/PRIIPs KIID or equivalent is provided, it is regulatory disclosure, not marketing. Those documents are generally outside the UK financial-promotion restriction.

In line with FCA rules for high-risk investments, we do not offer incentives to invest (e.g., refer-a-friend bonuses, monetary/non-monetary perks) in relation to retail crypto promotions.

Publications & Social Media Disclosure

Social media communications, including posts on LinkedIn and X, (all together “Social Media”) may constitute advertisements, financial promotions, investment recommendations within the meaning of Regulation (EU) No 596/2014, the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 or other regulated communications depending on their content and the jurisdiction in which they are communicated.

BEU makes all reasonable efforts to ensure that the information contained in documents and on Social Media is accurate and reliable; however, errors may occur. To the extent permitted by applicable law, documents and materials available on Social Media are provided without any express or implied warranties as to accuracy, validity, timeliness or completeness. Nothing in this paragraph excludes or limits any statutory or regulatory responsibility or liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited, including obligations applicable to advertisements or financial promotions and liability relating to a prospectus or other regulatory disclosure.

Unless expressly endorsed or adopted by Bitwise Europe, comments expressed by members of the online community represent those persons’ own views and are not endorsed by Bitwise Europe.

Risks of ETPs & Cryptocurrencies

An investment in an ETP backed by one or more cryptocurrencies, such as those issued by BEU, is dependent on the performance of the underlying cryptocurrency, less costs, but it is not expected to match the performance of the underlying asset precisely. Investing in ETPs also involves numerous risks including general market risks relating to underlying, adverse price movements, currency, liquidity, operational, legal and regulatory risks and investors should be prepared to lose some or all of the amount invested.

ETPs backed by cryptocurrencies are highly volatile assets and performance is unpredictable. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future performance. The market price of ETPs will vary and they do not offer a fixed income. The value of any ETP may be affected by exchange rates and the price movement of its underlying cryptocurrency(ies). This website may contain forward looking statements including statements regarding Bitwise Europe’s belief or current expectations with regards to the performance of certain asset classes. Forward looking statements are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions, and there can be no assurance that such statements will be accurate and actual results could differ materially from those indicated. You must not place reliance on forward-looking statements or any other similar information contained in this website.

Cryptocurrencies are highly volatile and are known for their extreme and rapid fluctuations in prices. While there may be potential for significant gains, you are at risk of losing part or all of your entire capital invested. The price of cryptocurrencies can fluctuate widely and, for example, may be impacted by global and regional political, economic or financial events, regulatory events or statements by regulators, investment trading, hedging or other activities by a wide range of market participants, forks in underlying protocols, disruptions to the infrastructure or means by which crypto assets are produced, distributed, stored and traded. Characteristics of cryptocurrencies and divergence of applicable regulatory standards create the potential for market abuse. The price of cryptocurrencies may also change due to shifting investor confidence in future outlook of the asset class.

For a detailed overview of risks associated with cryptocurrencies and specifically associated with BEU’s products, please refer to the prospectus and final terms, which are available in the “Resources” section of the Bitwise Europe website at bitwiseinvestments.eu/resources/. You should only invest if you are capable of understanding and evaluating the risks involved. If you are in doubt as to whether an investment is appropriate for you, you should consult an authorised person who specialises in advising on investments including crypto-backed ETPs.
