BlockBeats News, March 3 — VanEck Chief Executive Officer Jan Van Eck said in an interview with CNBC, “Today’s crypto market is rebounding, but it’s still down more than 50% from the highs of October last year. Regarding Bitcoin, we know two things: it has a limited supply of 21 million coins, and there’s a halving cycle, where every four years Bitcoin miners receive half the block rewards. Bitcoin has an investment cycle: three consecutive years of gains followed by a significant decline in the fourth year. 2026 is exactly this fourth year, so we are in a bear market for cryptocurrencies, more specifically Bitcoin. Therefore, I think there’s no need to overcomplicate things. At the moment, I believe we are building a bottom, which is also a very good sign of recovery.”

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) acknowledges that its prior enforcement actions against the crypto industry have had shortcomings, emphasizing that the focus should not be on the number of cases. Since February 2025, seven crypto cases have been withdrawn, with the goal of adjusting policy. The new chair, Atkins, is pushing for regulatory innovation, proposing a “safe harbor” mechanism designed to give compliant space to startup crypto projects and aiming to reshape the industry’s compliance path.
