Vietnam's Emerging Regulatory Landscape For Blockchain And Cryptocurrency

In recent years, Vietnam has positioned itself among the leading countries in the world in terms of digital asset ownership and trading volume. This rapid adoption reflects the country's growing digital economy and the increasing engagement of individuals and businesses in blockchain-based financial activities.

Central to this growth are Resolution No. 57-NQ/TW of the Politburo dated December 22, 2024, on breakthroughs in science, technology, innovation, and national digital transformation with a vision to 2045 ("Resolution 57") and Resolution No. 03/NQ-CP of the Government dated January 9, 2025, promulgating the Action Plan to Implement Resolution 57 ("Resolution 03"), which outline a flexible and innovative policy framework that embraces pilot programs for emerging technologies to lay the groundwork for Vietnam's legislative framework concerning cryptocurrency and blockchain technologies.
