BetaShares Crypto Innovators ETF (ASX: CRYP)

The first ETF for investors to consider buying is the BetaShares Crypto Innovators ETF.

It could be a great option if you're bullish on the long term outlook of cryptocurrencies. That's because it has been created to give investors exposure to the full crypto ecosystem.

This includes pure-play crypto companies, those whose balance sheets are held at least 75% in crypto-assets, and diversified companies with crypto-focused business operations. If the crypto market booms, these companies should benefit greatly.

Betashares Global Uranium ETF (ASX: URNM)

A second ASX ETF for investors to look at is the Betashares Global Uranium ETF.

As you might have guessed from its name, it offers investors easy access to a group of leading companies in the global uranium industry.

This could be a great time to be exposed to this side on the mining sector. That's because uranium demand is expected to grow materially in the coming decades due to increased nuclear power adoption. And with supply struggling to keep up, this bodes well for the uranium price.

VanEck Vectors Morningstar Wide Moat ETF (ASX: MOAT)

Another ASX ETF for investors to consider in September is the VanEck Vectors Morningstar Wide Moat ETF.

It might be worth considering if you're in the market for something that you can buy and hold onto for the long term. And better yet, if you are a fan of Warren Buffett's investment style.

This popular fund invests in the types of companies that Warren Buffett would approve of. These are companies that have fair valuations and sustainable competitive advantages or wide moats. Hence its name.

There certainly is good reason to consider taking this approach to investing. You only need to look at the way Buffett has smashed the market over multiple decades to see that it works. In addition, the index the ETF tracks has also beaten the market convincingly over the past decade. So it is very hard to call it a fluke. The fund is currently invested across ~50 shares includes the likes of AdobeCampbell Soup Co, Nike, and Walt Disney.

Vanguard Australian Shares Index ETF (ASX: VAS)

A fourth ASX ETF to consider buying in September is the Vanguard Australian Shares Index ETF.

It is an index-based exchange-traded fund that aims to track the local ASX 300 index. This is where you will find Australia's leading 300 listed companies.

Across these 300 shares are companies from all sides of the market. This includes mining giants such as BHP Group Ltd (ASX: BHP), Northern Star Resources Ltd (ASX: NST), and Rio Tinto Ltd (ASX: RIO), and blue chips including Coles Group Ltd (ASX: COL), Telstra Group Ltd (ASX: TLS), and Woolworths Group Ltd (ASX: WOW).

And as many of these shares pay dividends, you will be getting a pay check from the ETF each year. At the last count, the ETF was trading with a dividend yield of approximately 3.5%.
