Vanguard Reverses Crypto ETF Ban, Triggers $200 Billion Market Surge

The post Vanguard Reverses Crypto ETF Ban, Triggers $200 Billion Market Surge appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. // News Reading time: 2 min Published: Dec 05, 2025 at 15:43 The dramatic surge was attributed to the world’s second-largest asset manager, Vanguard Group, reversing its long-standing ban on trading crypto Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs). The cryptocurrency market experienced a massive, unanticipated rally on December 3rd, with Bitcoin (BTC) smashing through the $93,000 level and the total crypto market capitalization adding over $200 billion in value within 36 hours.
