Over the years, Vanguard was one of the greatest Bitcoins and cryptographic bears in established finances. And despite the exposure to the strategy, this attitude does not seem to change.

“God has a sense of humor”
The unexpected exposure of Vanguard at Bitcoin shed lightweight on the quirks of passive investing.
ETF Bloomberg analyst, Eric Balchunas, summed up: “When you have an index fund, you must have all the actions for better or worse – and it includes actions that you may not like or confirm personally.” He added that the excellent exposure of Vanguard to the strategy, the company synonymous with the maximalism of Bitcoins, reminds that “God has a sense of humor.”
