🦄 BitMine’s $500M Ethereum treasury gamble

🚀 Bitcoin hits $123K while Dow does… nothing

Vanguard accidentally became a Bitcoin whale 🐳

Wall Street giant Vanguard hates crypto (or so they say). But thanks to index funds, they now own a lot of Bitcoin-adjacent stocks.

🚨 Breaking News
Vanguard holds 20M+ shares in Strategy, one of the biggest Bitcoin treasury firms, despite calling crypto “useless.”

⚡ Wire Simplified

• Vanguard runs $10.4 trillion through index funds that auto-buy BTC-exposed stocks.

• They now accidentally became Strategy’s largest shareholder.

• Vanguard still says “crypto has no place in portfolios.”

• Bloomberg says Vanguard may eventually soften up.

• Index funds sometimes force you to own things you hate.

✔️ Straight to the Point
Even crypto-skeptics end up knee-deep in Bitcoin. Index funds don’t care about opinions, only about market caps.
