Vanguard’s stake in Bitcoin treasury firm Strive climbs to $51.5 million
· strategic_reserves · Sentiment: neutral
Vanguard has increased its investment in Strive Asset Management, a Bitcoin treasury firm, raising its stake to $51.5 million. This marks a notable expansion of the asset manager’s exposure to a company that holds Bitcoin on its balance sheet and actively advocates for Bitcoin adoption. The move reflects growing institutional comfort with Bitcoin-linked equities despite ongoing regulatory uncertainty. The key implication is that traditional finance giants are deepening indirect Bitcoin exposure through strategic investments in pro-Bitcoin public companies.
