  The interest rate of Vanguard's federal money market fund (settlement fund) is not directly tied to the volatility of the cryptocurrency market. Vanguard's settlement fund is designed to provide stability and liquidity to investors, and its interest rate is primarily influenced by factors such as the Federal Reserve's monetary policy, market interest rates, and the overall economic conditions. While the cryptocurrency market can have an impact on the broader financial market, it does not have a direct effect on the interest rate of Vanguard's settlement fund.
