Strategy Reports Q1 Results: Over $12 Billion In Red Ink—Here Are The Key Figures
Strategy's Q1 2026 results show over $12 billion in losses.

Digital asset funds saw $117.8 million in inflows, ending a week with a $619 million outflow earlier. A significant $737 million inflow on Friday reversed the trend, indicating improved risk appetite.
Digital asset funds posted $117.8 million in inflows, continuing a five-week streak, though this was the smallest weekly gain in that period. The overall number indicated a late recovery.
Earlier in the week, from Monday through Thursday, the market saw $619 million in outflows over four consecutive days. A sharp reversal came on Friday, as $737 million entered in a single day, which managed to turn the weekly balance positive.
CoinShares stated that this is one of the largest daily inflows recorded in 2026, “likely reflecting a sharp improvement in risk appetite.” Meanwhile, total assets under management held steady at $155 billion.
Investment products tied to Bitcoin attracted over $192 million in the past week, bringing its total for the year to $4.2 billion. The figure is still below recent weekly averages of close to $1 billion.
A small group of investors still expect BTC to decline as Short Bitcoin products raked in $6 million in inflows. Multi-asset products brought in $3.6 million, while XRP recorded $3 million during the same period. Ethereum, on the other hand, saw $81.6 million exit, as it snapped a three-week streak of gains above $190 million. Solana also followed suit with over $11 million in outflows.
In its latest Digital Asset Fund Flows Weekly Report, CoinShares said,
“The narrowing in participation from nine assets to four this week is the clearest signal that sentiment softened through the working week before recovering on Friday.”
The US brought in $47.5 million, far lower than the $1.1 billion seen a week earlier amid a slowdown in the week. In contrast, Germany amassed $43.8 million, while Canada added $16 million, indicating steadier demand. Elsewhere, Switzerland and Australia recorded smaller inflows of $5.2 million and $4 million.
Bitcoin has entered May on a strong note, after breaking above $80,000 for the first time since January 31. In a recent note to investors, Singapore-based QCP Capital observed that Bitcoin’s correlation with US stocks is rising back toward 2023 levels, in what appears to be a renewed link with broader risk assets.
Interestingly, BTC’s rally came even as Strategy paused its purchases, which can indicate “the market may be drawing strength from a wider base of support beyond that single narrative.” Institutional demand also remains steady. However, QCP noted that holding above the $82,000 to $83,000 range is important for continuation.
The $619 million outflow occurred over four consecutive days, reflecting a temporary decline in market sentiment.
