VanEck Launches All-in-One Wealth Builder ETF With Bitcoin Exposure<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

VanEck launched the Wealth Builder ETF today, trading on the NYSE under the ticker WBMO. The actively managed fund packages the firm\u2019s Wealth Builder model portfolios, which advisers have used through third-party platforms, into one product anyone with a brokerage account can buy.\u00a0<\/p>\n

VanEck<\/a>, which oversees about $244 billion in assets, selects the holdings, sets the weights and rebalances the portfolio.<\/p>\n

VanEck describes<\/a> the product as a way to \u201cgain exposure to a broad mix of investments across stocks, bonds, gold, and bitcoin with a single ETF purchase.\u201d The fund holds global stocks, bonds, gold and other real assets.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Its bitcoin exposure is indirect. WBMO owns no bitcoin. A wholly owned Cayman Islands subsidiary holds certain investments and gains digital asset exposure through exchange-traded products, which are funds that hold bitcoin or track it.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The subsidiary is generally capped at 25% of total assets at each quarter-end, but that limit covers several asset categories. The prospectus sets no specific bitcoin target. Investors do not need a wallet, seed phrase or exchange account to hold the bitcoin slice. They also cannot control the bitcoin position directly.<\/p>\n

Details of VanEck\u2019s fund<\/h2>\n

The fund\u2019s gross expense ratio is 0.33%. A 0.07% fee waiver brings the net ratio to 0.26%. The underlying bitcoin products charge their own fees.<\/p>\n

The allocation also limits the swings. If bitcoin rises sharply, WBMO captures only part of the gain. If it falls, bonds and gold should cushion some of the loss, though not prevent it.<\/p>\n

VanEck warned in its announcement that digital asset ETPs can be extremely volatile and that some are not registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, which means they lack certain investor protections.<\/p>\n

The firm\u2019s other crypto-linked fund, NODE, raised<\/a> its bitcoin ETP exposure from about 7% at the end of June to 16.8% at the end of September. NODE holds blockchain companies rather than WBMO\u2019s mix, but it shows how VanEck is using crypto in its portfolios.<\/p>\n

Earlier this fall, VanEck\u2019s Head of Digital Assets Research, Matthew Sigel, said<\/a> the Bitcoin community recognized the risks quantum computing posed to Bitcoin\u2019s cryptography.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a risk,\u201d Sigel said at the time. \u201cBut the community has recognized the scope of the issue. There\u2019s a lot of talent that\u2019s now come together with a framework of how to upgrade the system\u2026The upgrades don\u2019t happen as fast because there\u2019s no CEO who can tell the devs, \u2018hey, do it now.\u2019 There\u2019s a governance process \u2014 it takes more time, it\u2019s a little bit messier, but there are technological paths for quantum resistance, and I think you\u2019ll see more of that over the next couple of years.\u201d<\/p>\n

Major companies, including Coinbase and Blockstream, had begun developing quantum-resistant security measures to prepare for future threats.\u00a0<\/p>\n

A Bitcoin Security Consortium, including BlackRock, Fidelity Digital Assets, and Block, had also been formed<\/a> to fund open-source security initiatives, including proposals such as BIP-360.<\/p>\n
