  Yes, you can invest in cryptocurrencies using a Vanguard 529 plan. However, it's important to note that Vanguard currently does not offer direct investment options for cryptocurrencies. To invest in cryptocurrencies through a Vanguard 529 plan, you would need to use a self-directed brokerage account within the plan. This means you can choose to invest in cryptocurrency-related funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) that are available through the brokerage account. It's recommended to consult with a financial advisor or do thorough research before investing in cryptocurrencies through a Vanguard 529 plan to understand the risks and potential returns.

  Absolutely! You can totally invest in cryptocurrencies with a Vanguard 529 plan. But hold your horses, Vanguard doesn't directly offer cryptocurrency investments. What you can do is open a self-directed brokerage account within your Vanguard 529 plan. With this account, you can invest in cryptocurrency-related funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) that are available through the brokerage. Just make sure you do your due diligence and understand the risks associated with investing in cryptocurrencies. It's always a good idea to consult with a financial advisor before diving into the crypto world.
