On July 15, 2025, the media reported that Vanguard, one of the largest investment funds in the world, which had previously criticized Bitcoin for its speculative nature and lack of intrinsic value, invested over $9 billion in shares of Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy). This company is known for its aggressive strategy of accumulating Bitcoin, holding over 601,000 $BTC . According to reports, Vanguard owns nearly 8% of Strategy's shares, making it the largest institutional investor in the company.
This step seems paradoxical, as Vanguard has long avoided direct investments in cryptocurrencies, calling them too risky. However, investing in Strategy has become possible through passive index funds that include shares of companies related to Bitcoin. Analysts suggest that this reflects an indirect recognition of the potential of the crypto market, despite the skeptical rhetoric.
Amid the rise in Bitcoin's price to $123,000, shares of Strategy increased by more than 850% over two years, bringing significant profits to investors. However, experts warn of the volatility and risks associated with such investments.
