#VietnamCryptoPolicy Vietnam has made history by passing the Law on Digital Technology Industry, legitimizing cryptocurrency on June 14, 2025. Effective January 1, 2026, this law provides clear definitions and frameworks for crypto assets, recognizing them as digital assets distinct from fiat and securities. Key highlights include:

- *Clear definitions*: Distinguishing between "virtual assets" and "crypto assets"

- *Compliance*: Adhering to FATF, AML, and cybersecurity standards

- *Support for blockchain*: Encouraging startups, investor protection, and mainstream adoption

This move marks a significant turning point for Vietnam, a top-five country in global crypto adoption. The new law opens doors for Web3 builders, exchanges, and investors, solidifying Vietnam's position as a crypto hub [9].
