⚖️ Vietnam and the legal framework for crypto: A major turning point or just the beginning?
After many years of waiting, the Digital Technology Industry Law has officially been passed by the National Assembly of Vietnam, paving the way for the recognition of cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, Ethereum… as legal from January 1, 2026.
According to experts, this could be a major turning point that helps Vietnam become a leading cryptocurrency asset center in the region.
🔍 Summary of the highlights from the new policy:
For the first time, cryptocurrencies are clearly legalized – distinguishing them from virtual assets (such as game items, reward points).
About 17 million Vietnamese who own crypto will have a legal basis for protection.
Domestic blockchain startups will no longer have to "go abroad" to register for legal entities in Singapore, Hong Kong…
Da Nang, Ho Chi Minh City, and Hanoi are expected to become centers for testing digital assets – with a sandbox model, stablecoin payments, and encouraging the application of blockchain in daily life.
The government emphasizes: the law comes with requirements for compliance with cybersecurity, anti-money laundering, and protecting individual investors.
🎯 Opportunity or challenge?
Vietnam has a large workforce of blockchain programmers, a young population, and a high acceptance rate of crypto…
→ But to break through, clear and flexible practical implementation policies, along with an open investment environment, are still needed.
