In a historic step.. Vietnam passes a law to regulate digital assets
The Vietnamese government has approved a new bill that defines the legal framework for digital assets, named the Digital Technology Industry Law, which will come into effect in January 2026. This legislation aims to regulate cryptocurrency activities and support the growth of the emerging digital sector in the country.
A qualitative leap towards an integrated digital future
In addition to regulating cryptocurrencies, the law lays the groundwork for broader technological development, as it includes policies to support digital infrastructure and enhance growth in areas such as artificial intelligence, semiconductor manufacturing, and advanced technology.
Reports indicate that companies engaged in the development of digital products or advanced computing systems will enjoy incentives including support for research and development, talent training, and the establishment of shared infrastructure, aligning with Vietnam's vision to be a key player in the global digital economy.
