Charles Schwab Takes Centrist Approach Amidst Bitcoin ETF Competition

Meanwhile, amid the competition between Fidelity and BlackRock for the leading spot in Bitcoin ETFs and Vanguard’s reluctance to enter the crypto space, Charles Schwab, a multi-trillion-dollar asset manager and the largest personal finance brokerage in the US, has adopted a centrist position.
