BREAKING🚀 Vietnam officially opens licensing for crypto exchanges, launching its long-awaited regulated market pilot.
The State Securities Commission (SSC) began accepting applications on January 20, 2026. This move operationalizes the pilot program under the Ministry of Finances Decision No. 96, bringing digital asset trading under formal oversight.
Regulators note they have not yet confirmed receiving or approving any specific exchange applications. This marks a critical step for Vietnam, transitioning from a grey market toward a structured regulatory framework.
