Vietnam has enacted a new law to regulate digital assets, which is set to take effect in January 2026. The new law officially recognizes digital assets and categorizes them into cryptocurrencies and virtual assets. This law grants the government the authority to classify digital assets, set conditions for their operations, and monitor these operations to maintain the integrity of the financial system.

In addition to regulating cryptocurrencies, the law paves the way for broader technological development by including policies to support digital infrastructure and promote growth in areas such as artificial intelligence, semiconductor manufacturing, and advanced technology. The law aims to attract more investments and enhance Vietnam's position alongside major blockchain hubs like Singapore. Vietnam currently ranks fifth globally in the adoption of cryptocurrencies, reflecting strong local demand in this sector.
