#VietnamCryptoPolicy

1. In 2025, Vietnam took an important step by officially recognizing crypto assets at the legislative level, creating a clearer legal framework for digital currencies.

2. Despite this, the country maintains strict controls over cryptocurrency activities, particularly in terms of anti-money laundering and cybersecurity.

3. The new law classifies digital assets into virtual assets and cryptocurrencies, establishing separate rules for each category.

4. Vietnam is also creating a regulatory “sandbox” to test crypto projects in a controlled environment to ensure investor safety.

5. Although cryptocurrencies are officially recognized, their use as a means of payment remains prohibited, which limits their functionality in everyday life.
