Vietnam and Austria agree to cooperate on crypto asset oversight

  • Vietnam will issue its first crypto provider licenses in 2026 under a pilot regime
  • The SSC is incorporating FATF recommendations and EU regulator models into its oversight
  • The FMA proposed online expert seminars and coordination through IOSCO
  • SMEs account for about 99% of Vietnam's operating companies
Why it matters: Vietnam is shaping one of Asia's largest crypto regulatory regimes, which could open the market to licensed platforms and asset tokenization.
