🇻🇳 Vietnam Legalizes Crypto with Landmark Law, Eyes Web3 Leadership

Vietnam has officially exited the cryptocurrency "grey zone" by passing the Law on Digital Technology Industry, a groundbreaking move that legalizes and regulates digital assets, effective January 1, 2026. This pivotal legislation positions Vietnam as a rising Web3 and digital economy hub in Asia.

🔹 Legal Clarity: Defines and regulates "virtual assets" and "crypto assets", separating them from traditional financial instruments.

🔹 Compliance & Security: Introduces licensing for crypto exchanges and service providers, with strong AML and cybersecurity requirements aligned with global standards—aiming to lift Vietnam from the FATF "gray list."

🔹 Digital Economy Vision: The law also supports broader tech ambitions, offering incentives for AI, chipmaking, and digital infrastructure investment.

This transformative step is set to attract global capital, drive innovation, and cement Vietnam’s status as a leader in the global digital shift.
