LATEST: Asset Manager VanEck Seeks Approval from SEC for BNB ETF

VanEck has officially submitted a registration to the US SEC for a new exchange-traded fund that will directly track the price of BNB the native token of the BNB Chain. If approved this would be the first US-registered ETF to offer direct exposure to BNB making it a major milestone for crypto investment access in traditional markets.

Filed on May 2 under Form S-1 the VanEck BNB ETF could also feature staking options allowing investors to earn extra BNB rewards through trusted providers. This would open the door to passive income opportunities from a regulated ETF structure enhancing the appeal for both retail and institutional investors.

This move positions BNB alongside Bitcoin Ether Solana and Avalanche as major crypto assets now targeted by VanEck for ETF offerings. VanEck continues to lead in crypto ETF innovation following its successful launch of spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs and earlier proposals for futures-based crypto funds. BNB is currently trading near $595 with stable activity.
