JAKARTA - VanEck, an investment company that has launched a bitcoin spot Exchange Trade Fund (ETF) in the United States, is now introducing its newest digital asset platform and non-fungible token (NFT), SegMint. This platform is designed to facilitate the management and sharing of self-supervised digital assets using an innovative Lock and Key Model'.
Bitcoin spot ETF is an investment fund that allows investors to get exposure to bitcoin prices without having to own bitcoin directly. Bitcoin spot ETF is traded on traditional stock exchanges like ordinary shares.
Digital assets are data-shaped assets stored in computer systems, such as crypto, tokens, or NFT. NFT is a unique and non-exchangeable digital token, which can represent various types of assets, such as art, music, games, or collections. NFT has become a popular trend in the crypto world, with sales volumes reaching 52.3 million US dollars (Rp819.8 billion) on Monday, February 26.
SegMint is a platform that allows users to store, manage, and share their digital assets in a safe and easy way. By using Lock and Key Model, users can create digital keys that can be given to others to access or have certain digital assets. For example, users can create keys for the NFT they own, and give them to friends, family, or business partners. Thus, users can collaborate and transact with digital assets without losing control or security.

Reporting from Cryptonews, Matt Bartlett, founder of SegMint said in a press release "We identify a significant point of pain in the digital asset ecosystem" the challenge of sharing access and ownership in the world of self-supervision. Lock and Key Model overcomes this by offering users-friendly solutions that empower individuals to share their assets safely while maintaining control," he added.
To use SegMint, users must verify their identity and complete the process of 'Know Your Customers' (KYC/Know Your Customers). After that, users will get an NFT 'Adventurer', namely a special NFT that shows the user's profile and reputation on the platform. This Adventurer NFT can be used to access various features and services in SegMint, such as the NFT market, digital wallet, and social platforms.
SegMint is one of VanEck's initiatives to develop its digital asset business. Previously, VanEck had successfully launched a Bitcoin spot ETF in the US with the ticker symbol HODL. This ETF offers investors an easy and inexpensive way to invest in Bitcoin, at a cost of only 0.20%. This ETF competes with ten other Bitcoin ETFs that have been approved by US regulators.
By launching SegMint, VanEck demonstrates its commitment to becoming a leader in the digital asset industry and NFT. The platform targets European and Asian markets, which are expected to have a high interest in digital assets. However, this platform is not available to US citizens, due to legal and regulatory barriers.
