VanEck Files First-Ever #BNBETF Application in United States
VanEck has submitted an S-1 document to the #SEC for a spot
$BNB exchange-traded fund, becoming the first asset manager to file for a #BNBETF in the U.S.
$BNB is the native token of the BNB Chain and currently the fourth-largest non-stablecoin cryptocurrency with a market capitalization of $86.7 billion.
If approved, the ETF would allow any portion of the
$BNB in the trust to be used for earning staking rewards, additional
$BNB, or other income.
The filing's timing coincides with the recent #TOKEN2049 conference where #CZ spoke and Jan Van Eck was in attendance, according to Bloomberg ETF analyst Eric Balchunas.
This application joins more than 70 altcoin-related ETF filings currently awaiting review from the SEC under its new leadership.
