Gate’s latest institutional weekly report said the period from Sept. 21 to Sept. 27 saw some support for U.S. equities and crypto assets as oil prices pulled back and trade risks eased. At the same time, the yield on the 10-year U.S. Treasury moved above 5%, leaving valuation pressure in place for risk assets under a high-rate backdrop. On the flow side, the report said weekly net inflows reached about $2.386 billion for BTC ETFs and about $690 million for ETH ETFs, while stablecoin supply increased by roughly $1.59 billion. That pointed to a pickup in institutional capital and on-chain liquidity. Market structure, however, remained split. Gate TradFi posted about $100 billion in weekly trading volume, while on-chain capital kept concentrating in structural themes such as USDC and SOL LST. In derivatives, BTC rose 4.06% on the week, but cross-exchange open interest fell 12.81%. Funding rates briefly turned negative and options open interest contracted sharply, a sign that deleveraging appeared alongside the price rebound. The report also said Gate Institutional is continuing to expand its multi-asset trading system across spot, futures, stocks, ETFs, options and other TradFi assets, supported by infrastructure including OES and CrossEx.

According to a ChainCatcher report citing Gate’s latest institutional weekly note, oil prices fell and trade risks eased during Sept. 21 to Sept. 27, giving some support to U.S. equities and crypto assets. Still, the yield on the 10-year U.S. Treasury rose above 5%, and the high-rate setting continued to weigh on risk-asset valuations.

Capital flows picked up

Gate said weekly net inflows were about $2.386 billion for BTC ETFs and about $690 million for ETH ETFs. Stablecoin supply also increased by roughly $1.59 billion, indicating a recovery in institutional flows and on-chain liquidity.

Trading structure stayed divided

The report said market trading structure remained split. Gate TradFi recorded about $100 billion in weekly trading volume and stayed at a relatively high level. On-chain capital, meanwhile, became more concentrated in structural opportunities including USDC and SOL LST.

Derivatives showed signs of deleveraging

In derivatives, BTC gained 4.06% over the week, but cross-exchange open interest fell 12.81%. Funding rates turned negative for a period, and options open interest shrank noticeably. Gate said the market showed signs of deleveraging even as prices moved higher.

Gate expands its multi-asset setup

Against a backdrop of shifting capital flows and market structure, Gate Institutional said it is continuing to improve its multi-asset trading system. The offering covers spot, futures, stocks, ETFs, options and other TradFi assets, while infrastructure such as OES and CrossEx is being used to support API trading, cross-platform execution and coordinated settlement for institutions taking part in cross-market trading and diversified asset allocation.
