HISTORY OF INDEX FUNDS
John C. Bogle founded the Vanguard Group of Investment Companies in 1974. He was
extremely critical of the standard mutual fund model, with its constant trading from security
to security in an attempt to capture “winners” and avoid “losers.” Bogle built his fortune
based on a different approach called indexing — creating an investment portfolio designed
to mirror one of the market’s broad yardsticks such as the S&P 500, the Dow Jones
Industrials, or the NASDAQ Composite. The rules governing the index fund reflect those
that govern the index and are stated in a clear, unbiased, and systematic manner. Portfolios
are balanced dynamically and automatically based on the source index’s own evolution,
eliminating the need for, and risks associated with, picking individual stocks based on the
biases of the fund manager. Though Bogle didn’t invent this approach, he popularized it
and became one of its leading proponents.
Actually, the original idea for the index fund is credited to Edward Renshaw and Paul
Feldstein, students at the University of Chicago, back in 1960. However, more than ten
years passed before the first index fund was actually created by Qualidex Fund, Inc. in
1972. It was described as “an open-end, diversified investment company whose investment
objective is to approximate the performance of the Dow Jones Industrial Stock Average.”
HISTORY OF INDEX FUNDS
However, the small handful of index funds that were first offered around that time were designed
only for institutional investors, with individual investors specifically excluded. Bogle’s approach to
indexing, to some extent, democratized financial investments for the individual investor. His
indexed funds minimized the high costs associated with the constant active management of
investment portfolios, as well as the tax implications of these transactions. As Bogle himself tells
it, “In investing, you get what you don’t pay for. Costs matter, so intelligent investors will use
low-cost index funds to build a diversified portfolio of stocks and bonds, and they will stay the
course. They won’t be foolish enough to think that they can consistently outsmart the market.”
Vanguard also managed its indexed funds at cost, meaning that it charged its investors
significantly lower fees than its competitors. The Vanguard Group currently has over $4.9 trillion in
assets under management.
Within the last few years, the crypto space has begun to borrow the concept of index funds from
Wall Street. In early 2017, as the crypto market finally matured enough to begin attracting
institutional investors, a number of investment funds and hedge funds emerged.
Two of the most common ways of constructing an index are the price-weighted index and the
capitalization-weighted index. The first includes an equal number of each coin in the portfolio, and
the index is calculated as the average between the individual prices of all the assets in the index.
Because of this, the higher-priced assets
affect the index more than the less-costly
ones. The Dow (DIJA) is an example of this
kind of index.
The capitalization-weighted index includes
assets in an amount proportional to their
market capitalization. Consequently, assets
with the largest market cap will affect the
index the most, even if their individual asset
price is low. The S&P 500 is a good example
of this kind of index. Keep in mind that with
either type of index, assets in the index funds
are allocated in the same proportion as in the
index itself.
PROJECT OVERVIEW
In recent times, DeFi (Decentralized Finance) has become very
popular and the need for an index is growing due to the increased
level of maturity of the crypto market. Liberthereum will be
developed through the Ethereum blockchain in order to promote
protection and reach the best opportunities of the Defi system.
Liberthereum’s native token (LTH) is an ERC20 token and will
power the Liberthereum’s platform which is a secure portal for
people who believe in the future of decentralized finance.
Liberthereum will be based on the traditional index investment
model that was first popularized in the 1970s.
At Liberthereum, our expert team believes need for indices and funds will grow.

In today’s businesses, word of mouth is the most efficient marketing strategy. We
will ensure our support offers 24/7 support to our customers and users of our token.
This is to help us maintain a high level of customer satisfaction. When customers
are satisfied, they give positive reviews about the project and this sky-rockets the
success of the project.
Blockchain Forums:
Cryptocurrency forums today serves as a major tool for promotion. Forums like
Bitcointalk have great influence on every blockchain project. Our project will be
listed on various cryptocurrency forums, this is to help us get a good target
audience, partners and investors to our project. These forums give room for asking
questions and also getting positive replies from the owners of the project.
