    As Vanguard opts out of crypto ETFs, outflows persist

    August 15, 2024


    • Vanguard opted out of crypto ETFs, sticking to its cost-focused investment strategy.
    • BlackRock leads in Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs, but may avoid expanding into new crypto assets.

    As the speculation grows that U.S. Bitcoin [BTC] ETFs may surpass Satoshi Nakamoto’s BTC holdings by 2025, Vanguard, the second-largest ETF provider globally, has announced its decision to remain uninvolved in the crypto ETF market.

    Vanguard not interested in the crypto ETFs anymore?

    In an interview with ETF.com published on the 14th of August, Salim Ramji, Vanguard’s new CEO, clarified that the company does not plan to follow the lead of its competitors in this emerging sector. He said,

    “It’s important that a company stay consistent with who they are. Vanguard must look through the lens of our clients. But I want more innovation.”

    Vanguard’s decision to avoid entering the crypto ETF space comes amidst BlackRock’s dominant presence in the market. 

    Despite the rising interest in crypto assets, Vanguard, a leading ETF issuer globally with over $7 trillion in assets under management, has chosen to maintain its focus elsewhere.

    As a major player in the U.S. financial landscape, Vanguard’s strategy emphasizes its established strengths rather than pursuing the burgeoning crypto ETF sector.

    Remarking on the same, Ramji said, 

    “I’m not going to copy competitors.” 

    What’s behind this decision?

    Ramji further justified Vanguard’s stance on avoiding crypto ETFs by referencing Jack Bogle’s “cost matters” hypothesis.

    This theory highlighted that investment expenses, including fees, trading costs, and taxes, significantly impact long-term returns.

    By minimizing these costs, Bogle argued, investors could potentially achieve better outcomes over time.

    Vanguard’s adherence to this principle underscored its commitment to keeping investment costs low and aligning with its broader strategy of enhancing investor returns through cost-effective solutions.

    ETF market trend

    On the 14th of August, Bitcoin ETFs experienced a notable outflow, totaling $81.4 million as per Farside Investors.

    Among them, only BlackRock’s IBIT saw a positive movement, with inflows of $2.7 million, while other funds either experienced outflows or saw no movement.

    Conversely, the Ethereum ETF sector witnessed a resurgence, with net inflows of $10.8 million on the same day.

    BlackRock’s ETHA led this rebound, recording $16.1 million in inflows, whereas others were stuck within the outflow trend. 

    This trend underscores BlackRock’s dominant position in the ETF market, both for Bitcoin and Ethereum [ETH], highlighting its significant influence in shaping investor sentiment and market dynamics.

    BlackRock cancels out Solana ETF

    Interestingly, in a recent revelation, despite BlackRock’s commanding presence in the ETF market, the firm appears to have no immediate plans to expand into additional crypto assets, such as a spot Solana [SOL] ETF.

    Samara Cohen, CIO of BlackRock ETF and Index Investments, confirmed this strategic focus on top cryptocurrencies only.

    This strategic positioning by BlackRock leaves room for other firms to potentially shape the market’s future.
