According to ChainCatcher, Jan Van Eck, CEO of asset management company VanEck, said in an interview with CNBC that Bitcoin is a very obvious value-added asset at the moment. The appreciation and growth space of Bitcoin will be as important as gold.

Jan Van Eck also mentioned that VanEck was one of the first funds to launch the first gold ETFs in the United States. As early as 2017, VanEck began to conduct in-depth research on Bitcoin and submitted an S-1 application, planning to launch the first Bitcoin futures ETF.
