Multiple U.S. media outlets contacted a Vanguard customer service representative who said Bitcoin ETFs are not available on the platform because they are “highly speculative, unregulated” and do not fit with the company’s long-term investment philosophy. It is said that The platform also doesn’t allow other riskier types of investments, such as leveraged ETFs.

He also said there are no plans to apply for proprietary branded Bitcoin spot ETFs, such as those offered by BlackRock or Fidelity.
