VanEck Launches First Tokenized Fund Backed by US Treasuries
VanEck has launched the VanEck® Treasury Fund, Ltd. (VBILL), the world’s first real-world asset (RWA) tokenization fund. The fund, developed in partnership with Securitize, provides investors with secure, real-time access to US Treasury-backed assets. VBILL can be issued across multiple blockchains at any time, targeting qualified investors with minimum subscriptions of $100,000 or $1,000,000, depending on the blockchain.
The MOVE signals growing institutional adoption of blockchain technology for traditional financial instruments. With Securitize’s $3.9 billion in assets under management, this launch could significantly expand the RWA market. The fund’s structure demonstrates how blockchain can enhance accessibility and efficiency in treasury investments.
