#VietnamCryptoPolicy The cryptocurrency policy in Vietnam is shifting from an unregulated state to stricter management. Since 2018, the State Bank has prohibited the use of cryptocurrencies as a payment method, but individual ownership and trading remain a gray area. By 2025, the government is expected to pass a new legal framework recognizing digital assets and cryptocurrencies, which is anticipated to be implemented by the end of the year with a testing sandbox. The Ministry of Finance and the State Bank are developing regulations on AML/KYC, taxes (0.1% per transaction), and domestic exchanges. This change reflects an effort to balance innovation and financial stability.
