The Evolutionary Journey of Crypto in Vietnam from Virtual Currency to Digital Asset

Posted on by andy
The Evolutionary Journey of Crypto in Vietnam from Virtual Currency to Digital Asset

First appearing in Vietnam in the early 2010s, Bitcoin has weathered countless upheavals and been dogged by numerous accusations, from fraud to money laundering. Now, with the official promulgation of the Law on Digital Technology Industry and Resolution No. 5, Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies in general are standing on the threshold of broader, more formal recognition. Let’s walk through the path of crypto from a legal and popular nomenclature standpoint across different periods.

Part 1 — Key Legal Milestones

Overall, the legal development can be divided into two phases:

  • Phase 1: Technology and Legal Research, focusing on Risk Control
  • Phase 2: Designing the Legal Framework, laying the foundation for Future Development

Initially, regulatory bodies leaned toward risk control. However, in recent years, they have begun to shift gears toward designing the regulatory framework for “virtual assets” and “virtual asset service providers” (hereinafter referred to as VA/VASP), sandbox mechanisms, and the eventual legalization of “digital assets.” This shift mirrors the VASP/Travel Rule framework in South Korea, the PSA and AML/CFT in Singapore, and the MiCA regulation in the European Union. In short, the trend for our regulatory agencies is not unconditional legalization, but rather standardization for the purpose of effective management.

Phase 1

2017

  • August 21, 2017 – Decision No. 1255/QD-TTg: The Prime Minister approved the Project on completing the legal framework for managing “virtual assets, electronic money, and virtual currency.” This “opened the door” for officially putting VA/VC on the path to legal codification.
  • July 21, 2017 – Official Letter No. 5747/NHNN-PC: Confirmed that Bitcoin/virtual currency is neither a currency nor legal tender in Vietnam.
  • October – November 2017 – Warnings & Penalties for Crypto Payments: The State Bank of Vietnam (SBV) and official press outlets stressed that using Bitcoin as a means of payment is illegal and may be penalized under Decree 96/2014 (and could lead to criminal prosecution under the Penal Code starting in 2018).

2018

  • April 11, 2018 — Directive No. 10/CT-TTg: The Prime Minister required ministries/sectors to tighten control over activities related to Bitcoin & virtual currency (anti-money laundering, fraud, multi-level schemes, etc.).

2019

  • Reaffirmation of “Illegal Means of Payment” Penalties: The SBV continued to issue warnings; the administrative penalty framework in the monetary–banking sector maintained its stance of not recognizing crypto as a means of payment.

2020

  • The Ministry of Finance established a Research Team on virtual assets/virtual currency to propose a management framework.

2021

  • June 15, 2021 — Decision No. 942/QD-TTg (E-Government Strategy 2021–2025): Assigned the SBV to research and pilot a “Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) on a blockchain platform” during the 2021–2023 period.

Phase 2

2022

  • November 15, 2022 — Law on Anti-Money Laundering 2022 (No. 14/2022/QH15): Updated AML/CFT obligations in line with FATF standards; serves as the basis for including VASP/VA in the subsequent national action plan. (Effective March 1, 2023).

2023

  • April 27, 2023 — Decision No. 11/2023/QD-TTg: Set the large transaction threshold for AML reporting at 400 million VND (this reflects a general trend of tightening AML, which is relevant when building the framework for VA/VASP).

2024

  • February 23, 2024 — Decision No. 194/QD-TTg: Issued the national action plan to exit the FATF “Grey List.” The Prime Minister assigned the Ministry of Finance to take the lead in building the legal framework for VA/VASP—with a deadline of May 2025 (requiring the country to either “prohibit or regulate” and demonstrate implementation).
  • May 15, 2024 — Decree No. 52/2024/ND-CP on non-cash payments, effective July 1, 2024: Continues to reject crypto as a means of payment; tightens control over illegal payment methods.
  • October 22, 2024 — Decision No. 1236/QD-TTg: The Prime Minister issued the National Strategy on the Application and Development of Blockchain Technology until 2025, with a vision to 2030.

2025

  • April 29, 2025 — Decree No. 94/2025/ND-CP (Fintech Sandbox): Established a pilot fintech sandbox for payments, P2P lending, Open API, etc.; created a mechanism for supervised testing—setting a “runway” for digital products/AML/KYC compliant operations, indirectly supporting the digital asset ecosystem, effective July 1, 2025.
  • May 2025 — Proposed Resolution on piloting the “digital asset/crypto asset market”: Submitted to the National Assembly Standing Committee for permission to pilot within a specific timeframe and regulatory requirements (currently soliciting opinions).
  • June 14, 2025 — The National Assembly passed the Law on Digital Technology Industry (effective January 1, 2026): For the first time, “digital assets/crypto assets” are formally defined in law, establishing principles for management, supervision, and investor protection; this creates the basis for subsequent decrees/specialized topics on taxation, accounting, disclosure… and ultimately resolves the identity of digital assets within the legal system.
  • August 1, 2025 — Deputy Governor of the SBV, Pham Tien Dung, announced at the GM Vietnam event that a pilot digital asset exchange would be established in Vietnam.
  • August 28, 2025 — Da Nang, for the first time, licensed a pilot project for converting crypto assets to fiat currency and vice versa.
  • September 9, 2025 — Resolution No. 5/2025/NQ-CP: Stipulated the implementation of a pilot crypto asset market in Vietnam, to be carried out over 5 years, based on the principles of caution, controlled supervision, an appropriate roadmap, safety, transparency, effectiveness, and the protection of the legitimate rights and interests of organizations and individuals participating in the crypto asset market.

Part 2 — Nomenclature Across Different Periods

Popularity of Crypto-Related Keywords

The measurement framework is based on Google Trends indices within Vietnam, covering the period from January 2017 to August 2025. The Trends index is used to compare the momentum of interest over time, while cross-comparison of terms indicates relative correlation. The data has been smoothed (Moving Average) for easier viewing by the reader.

Popularity of Crypto-Related Keywords

The general trend can be interpreted as follows:

  • 2017–2021: “Tiền ảo” – Virtual Currency and “Tiền điện tử” – Electronic Money took the lead, suggesting a generally lower level of public understanding.
  • 2021–2023: “Crypto,” “Tiền điện tử,” and “Tài sản số” (Digital Asset) showed high levels of interest, while Virtual Currency began to sharply decline.
  • 2023: Digital Asset first surged ahead, driven by news surrounding the completion of the legal framework for digital assets during the process of passing the Law on Digital Technology Industry.
  • 2024 – Present: “Crypto” maintains the top spot, indicating a trend toward more substantive, fundamental searches compared to previous years.

Notably, the keyword “Tài sản mã hóa” (Crypto Asset) is on an upward trajectory as it appears in Resolution No. 5 regarding the 5-year pilot implementation of the crypto asset market, effective September 9, 2025.

Direct Comparison: “Virtual Currency” vs. “Digital Asset”

During the 2017–2019 period, state documents used the phrases “tiền ảo/tiền điện tử/tài sản ảo” (virtual currency/electronic money/virtual asset), such as in Decision 1255, Directive 10, and warnings from the SBV. The keyword “Tiền ảo” peaked during the 2021 cycle but saw a relative decline after 2022.

In the later phase, a conceptual shift toward “tài sản số” (Digital Asset) emerged in high-level documents, such as Decision 194 requiring a framework for VA/VASP; and especially the 2025 Law on Digital Technology Industry officially defines “digital asset” in law. As a result, the keyword Digital Asset starting from a low base before 2021, has rapidly broken out, rising to become one of the top financial topics searched.

"Virtual Currency" vs. "Digital Asset"

Part 3 — The Path Ahead

Market Perspective

From a policy standpoint, the shift by regulatory agencies and mass media from a term with “alternative currency” connotations (tiền ảo / virtual currency) to an asset-based approach (tài sản số/tài sản mã hoá / digital asset/crypto asset) is absolutely crucial.

On one hand, this opens the door to mechanisms for taxation, accounting, disclosure, and investor protection—an approach similar to developed markets like the EU, Singapore, or South Korea. This step is also appropriate as Vietnam seeks deeper global integration by adhering to common FATF standards.

On the other hand, this transformation clearly demonstrates a more progressive and open spirit for the coming period, as the Vietnamese economy demands a higher degree of innovation.

From the perspective of individual investors, the surge in search demand for the keywords “tài sản số” (digital asset) or “crypto” increasingly affirms the recognition and maturity of the market.

With a comprehensive legal framework in the future, investors will receive greater protection from authorities, establishing a safe and sustainable foundation. This foundation will not only encourage a large inflow of capital from traditional financial institutions alongside the expected legalization of funds. Furthermore, compliant products such as custody, tokenization, Real World Assets (RWA), and regulated stablecoins will be fully unleashed with clear mechanisms, simultaneously mitigating risks stemming from opaque operations.

This change in perspective is a watershed moment, opening up tremendous opportunities for one of the world’s fastest-growing markets to integrate into the existing financial market framework.

Exchanges – The Core Product

As the gateway for the public to access a new market, exchanges are the minimum requirement for long-term development.

Following the deployment of International Financial Centers in Da Nang and Ho Chi Minh City, the digital asset market is also being urgently developed by authorities. Recently, media outlets have reported information about piloting digital asset exchanges in Vietnam. Below is a summary of the information regarding these exchanges:

  • TCEX: Techcombank’s digital asset exchange, established in May, recently increased its capital from 3 billion to 101 billion VND on August 8.
  • MB Bank: Partnered with Dunamu Group (parent company of the Upbit exchange) on August 13 to develop a digital asset exchange in Vietnam.
  • VIXEX: Established on August 26 with a charter capital of 1,000 billion VND. Founding shareholders include VIX Securities, FTG Vietnam, and 3C.
  • SSI Digital (SSID): A subsidiary of SSI Securities, established in 2022. On August 28, SSID signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Da Nang City People’s Committee to accompany the city in developing its international financial center.
  • CAEX: VPBankS (a subsidiary of VPBank) established a crypto asset exchange in September with an initial chartered capital of 25 billion VND.

According to Resolution No. 5, licensed exchanges must be Vietnamese enterprises with a minimum capital of 10,000 billion VND, of which 35% of the charter capital must be held by at least two organizations (bank, securities company, investment fund, insurance company, or technology company). Additionally, there are many other regulations to ensure the safety and credibility of an exchange.

Conclusion

We have come quite a long way, from the nascent stage to the early adoption phase of a core technology in the 4.0 revolutionary era. The next phase will be pivotal, opening the door for widespread popularization and application within a transparent and standardized legal framework. Pioneering this market now requires not only the path-clearing efforts of regulatory bodies but also the ambitious efforts of each individual among us to build and generate positive value for the community as a whole.

U2U Network Named Platinum Sponsor of GM Vietnam 2025 — Scaling DePIN to the Real World

Posted on by andy

In a major boost to the GM Vietnam 2025 lineup, we are thrilled to welcome U2U Network as a Platinum Sponsor. Known for its high-performance DAG-based Layer-1 infrastructure and razor-sharp focus on DePIN, AI, and real-world Web3 utility, U2U Network is not just joining the conversation — it’s here to lead it.

From groundbreaking subnet technology to a thriving global ecosystem, U2U is shaping up to be one of the most consequential blockchain platforms of the next decade.

What Makes U2U Network Different?

U2U Network is a DAG-based, EVM-compatible Layer-1 blockchain built for ultra-scalable DePIN, AI, and IoT applications. Its modular subnet architecture enables developers to spin up purpose-built environments with near-instant finality and high throughput — a perfect fit for real-world infrastructure demands.

With a growing global user base and a laser-sharp focus on performance, U2U is laying the technical foundation for Web3 at industrial scale.

The past year has been nothing short of explosive for U2U Network. Here’s a look at what they’ve accomplished:

  • Subnet Tier-1 Nodes Sold Out: In October 2024, U2U launched its public node sale for DePIN infrastructure — and all 1,000 nodes were snapped up within 5 hours, drawing over 3,400 waitlisted participants
  • Strategic Rounds: Backed by top-tier firms like KuCoin Ventures, Chain Capital, IDG Blockchain, JDI Ventures, and V3V, U2U closed a $13.8M funding round in late 2024 — providing the fuel to scale both infrastructure and adoption.
  • Most recently, SSI Digital (SSID) — the tech arm of SSI Securities Corporation, Vietnam’s top financial institution — has officially led the Series A funding round for U2U Network. This strategic investment marks a major milestone not only for U2U Network but also for Vietnam’s ambition to build a “Make in Vietnam” digital infrastructure for the world.
  • Listed on Tier-1 Exchanges: In December 2024, $U2U was officially listed on KuCoin, Gate.io, BingX, MEXC, and Bitget — unlocking global liquidity and accelerating ecosystem growth.
  • U2U Network ecosystem: The platform has grown to support over 1.4 million users, 80+ dApps, and 40+ DePIN projects. Notable projects include U2DPN, a decentralized private network that enhances online privacy by transforming devices into nodes; Staex – a Web3 platform for IoT and an award-winning leader in secure, zero-trust network management; Nubila – a pioneer in decentralized IoT and MachineAI, is bringing blockchain-based weather data to agriculture and insurance.
  • Technical Performance: Subnets on U2U achieved up to 17,000 TPS with finality under 650 ms, proving their ability to power high-load dApps with ultra-low latency.
  • Strategic Collaborations: U2U forged partnerships with CoinList, AWS, Klaytn Foundation, IoTeX, Waterdrip Capital, etc — reinforcing its position as an infrastructure partner of choice.
  • Leadership Expansion: In June 2025, Chloe Phung was appointed CEO, strengthening executive alignment for the network’s DePIN and AI roadmap.

U2U’s progress is no longer potential — it’s proof. From Asia to the world, the network is building fast, shipping products, and attracting real users.

U2U x GM Vietnam 2025 Afterparty: Build by Day, Rage by Night

On August 1–2, at the National Convention Center in Hanoi, U2U Network will take the stage at GM Vietnam 2025 to share their journey, technology, and vision. Expect deep dives into subnet performance, DePIN scalability, and how blockchain is meeting the infrastructure demands of tomorrow’s world. This is your chance to meet the builders behind one of the most dynamic L1s in Web3 today.

And when the panels wrap — the party begins. U2U Network is co-hosting the official GM Vietnam 2025 Afterparty, bringing together 600+ founders, VCs, KOLs, and builders at Hanoi’s #1 superclub. Expect lights, beats, and big alpha — all in one room, one night only.

Polkadot Joins GM Vietnam 2025 as Platinum Sponsor, Strengthening its Footprint in Southeast Asia

Posted on by andy

We are proud to officially announce that Polkadot has signed on as a Platinum Sponsor of GM Vietnam 2025, the region’s premier Web3 and blockchain event, taking place on August 1-2, 2025, at the National Convention Center, Hanoi.

This partnership marks a significant milestone in our mission to bring together global pioneers and emerging builders from Southeast Asia’s thriving Web3 landscape. As one of the most innovative and influential blockchain ecosystems in the world, Polkadot’s involvement will add unprecedented depth and energy to the GM Vietnam 2025 experience.

The Foundation of a Decentralized Web

Founded by Gavin Wood, co-founder and former CTO of Ethereum, Polkadot is a layer-0 protocol designed to connect and secure a network of blockchains, enabling native cross-chain interoperability and scalability.

Polkadot’s core mission is simple but transformative: “to enable a truly decentralized web where users are in control.”

The network allows independent blockchains (called parachains) to exchange data and assets trustlessly, all while relying on Polkadot’s shared security model. It is the technological foundation for a new wave of Web3 applications, DeFi projects, gaming ecosystems, and digital identity solutions.

Key Achievements

Over the past 18 months, Polkadot has significantly expanded its global footprint, driven by technological innovation, strong developer engagement, and measurable on-chain adoption.

  • User and Network Activity: Polkadot’s active user accounts surged from 5.2 million to over 13.2 million in 2024, a 150% increase, with Mythos chain alone contributing over 6 million new users. Monthly transaction volumes more than doubled, growing from 13 million to nearly 40 million, while Total Value Locked (TVL) across parachains surpassed $1.6 billion by early 2025.
  • Cross-Chain Growth & Scale: Polkadot strengthened its leadership in cross-chain interoperability, with monthly XCM messages exceeding 40,000 and over 120 active HRMP channels. The network now hosts more than 50 live parachains, supporting a wide range of use cases, from DeFi and NFTs to gaming, AI, and decentralized identity. Moonbeam alone recorded 16.7 million transactions in Q1 2025.
  • Developer and Ecosystem Expansion: Polkadot remains among the top 4 most active blockchain ecosystems, with over 2,500 active developers, including 800 full-time contributors. Its ecosystem now spans 600+ live projects, covering everything from leading DeFi protocols and NFT marketplaces to Web3 identity solutions and enterprise applications.
  • Major Protocol Upgrades: Polkadot 2.0 is redefining how network resources are allocated and consumed, with major upgrades like Asynchronous Backing and Agile Coretime already live on mainnet. The next step, Elastic Scaling, is scheduled for activation by mid-2025, further increasing throughput and network efficiency. To support this evolution, Polkadot has launched the Polkadot Hub, an all-in-one interface for users and developers to explore the network, participate in governance, and track ecosystem activity. Notably, the Hub will soon support smart contract functionality, enabling developers to deploy Solidity-based contracts on PolkaVM — a high-performance, RISC-V-based virtual machine designed to outperform Ethereum’s EVM in both speed and scalability. This upgrade marks a major leap forward for builders on Polkadot, paving the way for a broader range of decentralized applications.
  • Funding and Global Adoption: Polkadot’s on-chain Treasury disbursed over $133 million in 2024 alone, with $211 million still allocated for future ecosystem growth initiatives. Additionally, strategic partnerships with enterprises and government agencies across Europe and Asia are further driving institutional adoption and regulatory engagement with Polkadot’s technology stack.

Polkadot continues to push the boundaries of blockchain scalability, interoperability, and governance, making it a natural fit for the spirit of innovation at GM Vietnam 2025.

Engage with Polkadot at GM Vietnam 2025

Polkadot’s presence at GM Vietnam 2025 will go beyond sponsorship; it’s a statement of intent to shape the next chapter of web3 in Southeast Asia.

Attendees can expect an immersive and high-impact ecosystem showcase, featuring live protocol demos, developer-focused workshops, and thought leadership keynotes from core Polkadot contributors and ecosystem pioneers.

Don’t sleep on DOT. This is your chance to meet the people building Asia’s digital future. Connect with creators behind the innovative applications serving millions of users today — from gaming platforms to city infrastructure. Whether you’re building, investing, or scaling your project, Polkadot’s activations provide you with the insights, connections and knowledge to succeed.

GM Vietnam 2025 is free to attend, but capacity is limited. Reserve your spot now and be part of Southeast Asia’s most anticipated Web3 gathering.

Building a Scalable Future: Aptos Becomes Diamond Sponsor of GM Vietnam 2025

Posted on by andy

We are thrilled to announce Aptos as a Diamond Sponsor of GM Vietnam 2025, marking a major collaboration between one of the industry’s most advanced Layer 1 blockchains and Southeast Asia’s largest Web3 gathering.

Aptos is more than just a fast and scalable blockchain — it represents a bold vision for Web3: one that is secure, modular, developer-friendly, and purpose-built for real-world adoption.

From its origins at Meta’s Diem project to its public emergence as a standalone chain, Aptos continues to push the boundaries of performance, safety, and decentralization.

Redefining Layer 1 Performance and Safety

Aptos is designed with one goal in mind: to bring billions of people into Web3 without compromising performance or security.

Powered by the Move programming language and the groundbreaking Block-STM parallel execution engine, Aptos is capable of processing up to 160,000 transactions per second while ensuring atomicity, low latency, and cost efficiency.

At the heart of Aptos is a commitment to:

  • Parallel transaction processing using Block-STM.
  • Safety-first development via Move Prover and modular design.
  • Flexible data models and account management for enhanced user privacy.
  • BFT consensus for high reliability in decentralized settings.
  • Transparent pre-signing and transaction previews to prevent wallet-based exploits.

These innovations empower Aptos to support everything from NFTs and DeFi to social networks and gaming, all while maintaining seamless user and developer experiences.

Bridging Web2 and Web3 with Modular Innovation

Aptos Labs is the team behind the chain. While originally co-led by Diem alumni Mo Shaikh and Avery Ching, a leadership transition took place in May 2025, with Avery Ching stepping in as CEO following Mo Shaikh’s departure after over three years of dedicated contribution to the project.

As the new CEO, Ching aims to focus on deepening technological innovation, accelerating product development, and expanding developer communities in key markets such as India, Vietnam, South Korea, Japan, and China — all while staying true to the original vision: making decentralization accessible to everyone.

Beyond infrastructure, Aptos Labs builds tools to close the usability gap:

  • Aptos Connect: No-install Web3 access
  • .apt domains: Easy wallet naming
  • Aptos Assistant: OpenAI-powered AI chatbot for education and onboarding
  • FindOut: AI-integrated Q&A hub for exploring AI x Web3

This full-stack approach helps both users and developers adopt blockchain without the learning curve, aligning with the broader vision of frictionless onboarding into decentralized ecosystems.

Real Use Cases: AI, Gaming, and Digital Ownership

Aptos isn’t just a high-performance chain — it’s powering real-world applications:

  • AI x Web3: Chatbots, content discovery, and trading agents running on-chain
  • Gaming: GameFi studios and AAA experiences leverage Move’s custom resource model and low-latency execution
  • NFTs: Secure, non-replicable digital assets on Aptos support creativity and identity
  • Social Networks: Platforms like Chingari enable creators to control their data and monetization channels

With dozens of partners, including Microsoft, Alibaba Cloud, and SK Telecom, Aptos is already a key driver of Web3 convergence.

Connect with Aptos at GM Vietnam 2025

Join Aptos and thousands of builders, founders, and investors at GM Vietnam 2025, taking place on August 1–2 at the National Convention Center in Hanoi.

  • Dive deep into Aptos’ developer tools and scalability breakthroughs

Anchoring Trust in the Digital Economy: Tether Becomes Diamond Sponsor of GM Vietnam 2025

Posted on by andy

We are proud to welcome Tether, the largest company in the digital asset industry, as a Diamond Sponsor of GM Vietnam 2025. As the backbone of global crypto liquidity and a pioneer in the stablecoin movement, Tether’s presence brings unmatched financial depth and credibility to Southeast Asia’s premier Web3 gathering.

At a time when digital finance demands stability, transparency, and trust, Tether has continued to deliver, powering a $156B USD₮ ecosystem, investing across multiple real-world sectors, and reaffirming its commitment to decentralized economies.

USD₮: A Legacy of Stability and Scale

Since launching in 2014, Tether’s USD₮ has evolved into the largest and most widely adopted stablecoin in the world. Designed to maintain a 1:1 peg with the U.S. dollar, USD₮ serves as the primary source of liquidity for the global crypto economy. Today, it is issued on a wide range of leading blockchains, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, TRON, Solana, and more.

With nearly 156 billion USD₮ in circulation (as of June 2025), Tether holds over 62% of the global stablecoin market share. It ranks as the third-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, after Bitcoin and Ethereum.

Its consistent utility in trading, remittances, on/off-ramps, and DeFi has made it the de facto liquidity standard across the industry.

Strengthening the Foundation: Transparency, Reserves, and Global Strategy

Under the leadership of CEO Paolo Ardoino since 2023, Tether has taken a proactive stance on reserves, regulation, and real-world investment.

  • Fully backed reserves: While no longer 100% USD-only, Tether’s reserves now include U.S. Treasuries, cash equivalents, Bitcoin, gold, and secured loans.
  • High liquidity: Over $120B in U.S. government bonds and $10B+ in BTC held to ensure 1:1 redemption.
  • Quarterly attestations: Regular transparency reports ensure confidence in Tether’s collateral and capital.

Tether Investments, its dedicated venture arm, is also pushing boundaries:

  • Acquired ~33.7% of Elemental Altus Royalties, a public gold royalties company.
  • Holds nearly 80 tonnes of physical gold.
  • Invests across AI (Blackrock Neurotech), crypto mining (Bitdeer), media (Rumble), Web3 (Orionx), and even sports (Juventus FC).

These moves underscore Tether’s evolution from a stablecoin provider into a full-fledged fintech conglomerate.

The Role of USD₮ in Emerging Markets and Web3 Adoption

USD₮ is more than a stablecoin; it’s a financial lifeline in volatile economies. In regions like Latin America, Africa, and Southeast Asia, USD₮ facilitates access to stable currency, protects savings, and connects users to the global digital economy.

Tether’s commitment to these markets includes:

  • Deploying stablecoins pegged to multiple fiat currencies and gold.
  • Supporting local exchanges and onramps to drive grassroots crypto adoption.
  • Enabling DeFi participation through multi-chain presence and high-speed transfers.

With Paolo Ardoino actively advocating for financial freedom, Tether continues to break down entry barriers for real users and real economies.

Meet Tether at GM Vietnam 2025

Join Tether at GM Vietnam 2025, happening August 1–2 at the National Convention Center in Hanoi, and get a rare chance to interact with the pioneers behind the world’s largest stablecoin.

  • Learn about Tether’s evolving reserve model and ecosystem investments.
  • Explore how USD₮ powers emerging markets and cross-border innovation.
  • Meet the team and hear from Tether leadership on Web3’s global future.
  • Connect with fellow builders, regulators, and ecosystem leaders in one of Asia’s most dynamic Web3 gatherings.

Whether you’re a developer, founder, investor, or policymaker, this is your opportunity to witness Tether’s strategy in action and understand the stablecoin that powers global crypto markets.

GM Vietnam 2025: Where Culture Meets Builders in Hanoi

Posted on by andy

When most people think of a blockchain conference, they picture sterile ballrooms, endless jargon, and a bunch of keynotes. GM Vietnam 2025 – Vietnam Blockchain Week, co-hosted by Kyros Ventures and SSID, is here to break that mold.

Coming this August 1–2 at the National Convention Center in Hanoi, GM Vietnam 2025 is one of Southeast Asia’s largest Web3 builder gatherings—where technology, culture, and community collide.

Whether you’re an investor tracking new markets, a founder seeking new partnerships, or a developer eager to understand the Vietnamese builder mindset, GM Vietnam 2025 offers the most dynamic Web3 experience in the region.

New this Year: Join the Treasure Hunt

GM Vietnam 2025 is leveling up the game with the biggest community challenge we’ve ever done: TREASURE HUNT – where every interaction, every booth visit, and every mission completed earns you points toward a total prize pool worth over 300 million VND (approximately $12,000 USD).

Here’s how it works:

  • Complete missions at participating booths, engage with partners, attend panel discussions, and join in-app challenges.
  • All tracked in real time on the official event leaderboard. The more you explore, the more points you earn.
