The floodgates are opening wider than anyone expected.
Starting tomorrow, clients of Vanguard—yes, that $11 trillion asset management behemoth—will finally get access to crypto ETFs. This isn't some niche boutique firm testing the waters. We're talking about one of the most conservative players in traditional finance making a move that was considered impossible just a few years ago.
The timing? Absolutely wild. Just as regulatory fog starts clearing and institutional FOMO kicks into overdrive, Vanguard flips the switch. Their clients, many of whom have been locked out of direct crypto exposure through the platform, can now tap into Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs without jumping through hoops or moving assets elsewhere.
What's fascinating here isn't just the access itself—it's the signal. When a fortress of traditional finance like Vanguard opens its doors to crypto products, it validates the asset class in ways no amount of Twitter hype ever could. Pension funds, family offices, and everyday retirement accounts suddenly have a green light they've been waiting for.
The ripple effects? Expect inflows that make previous ETF launches look like warm-up rounds. We're no longer talking about early adopters or risk-hungry traders. This is Main Street money with decades of investment discipline, now able to allocate even a small percentage into digital assets. Do the math on $11 trillion, and even 1% moves mountains.
Tomorrow isn't just another day on the calendar. It's the moment a sleeping giant wakes up and walks into the crypto room.

With this step, TradFi is really starting to get serious.
