KuCoin Signs MoU With Vietnam’s VBA and 1Matrix to Advance National Blockchain Strategy

The pact assigns responsibilities for pilots spanning trading, payments, digital identity within Vietnam’s evolving oversight.

Overview

  • Under the agreement, KuCoin will transfer exchange technology and best practices, VBA will lead policy and standardization, and 1Matrix will supply domestic infrastructure through the VBSN.
  • Planned pilots focus on digital asset trading platforms, blockchain payment solutions, electronic identity systems, and risk‑management tools built to international standards.
  • The collaboration is explicitly aligned with Vietnam’s 2025–2030 National Blockchain Strategy to help expand the country’s digital economy.
  • KuCoin highlights compliance and transparency measures, including real‑time order book data, recurring proof‑of‑reserves reports, and independent third‑party audits.
  • The MoU signals intent rather than binding commercial terms, and while Vietnam passed a digital technology law in June 2025, implementation timelines and regulatory approvals for this partnership have not been announced.
