VanEck, a $110 billion asset manager, has proposed the introduction of "BitBonds," a hybrid debt instrument designed to help the U.S. government refinance its $14 trillion debt over the next three years. The BitBonds would be structured as 10-year U.S. Treasury bonds with 90% exposure to traditional Treasuries and 10% exposure to Bitcoin, funded by bond sale proceeds. At maturity, investors would receive the full value of the Treasury portion plus the value of the Bitcoin allocation.
