Vietnam moved from tolerated grey market to a licensed pilot in 2025. Resolution 05/2025/NQ-CP, in force from 9 September 2025, opens a five-year pilot crypto asset market: crypto assets may be used for exchange or investment, all offering, issuance, trading and settlement must be in Vietnamese dong, and domestic and foreign investors may open accounts at providers licensed by the Ministry of Finance. The licence bar is high — VND 10,000 billion of contributed charter capital, at least 65% held by organisations, foreign ownership capped at 49% — and the Ministry of Finance, with the Ministry of Public Security and the State Bank, selects up to five providers in total.
The contract itself does not change by geography: a DRAM perpetual settles in USDC everywhere.
