VanEck Crypto ETPs Now Available in U.S. 401(k) Plans Through Basic Capital Partnership

Asset manager VanEck partnered with fintech 401(k) provider Basic Capital to offer select crypto exchange-traded products in U.S. employer-sponsored retirement plans, Cointelegraph reports. While specific ETPs were not disclosed, VanEck's flagship products include its Bitcoin spot ETF (HODL), Ethereum spot ETF (ETHV), and an Avalanche spot ETF. The integration follows recent U.S. policy shifts as the SEC and other agencies expand access to alternative assets in 401(k) plans. Basic Capital, an emerging retirement platform, raised $25 million in Series A funding last year led by Forerunner and Lux Capital, with U.S. 401(k) assets totaling about $10 trillion.
