SCEX simulator trading platform attracted over 22,000 account registrations within 48 hours of its launch
Just 48 hours after its launch as part of the “Digital Asset Popularization 2026” program, the SCEX Simulator trading platform recorded over 22,000 registered accounts and rose to the top 2 most downloaded apps on the App Store.
Experience trading in an environment closely resembling a real market.
SCEX Simulator is a cryptocurrency trading simulator developed by SACOM Cryptocurrency Exchange Joint Stock Company ( SCEX ).
The Prime Minister issued important directives regarding the establishment of exchanges for gold, cryptocurrencies, and real estate.
Within the first 48 hours, over 16,000 out of 22,000 registered accounts remained actively engaged. Keywords related to the app ranked among the top 6 trending topics on the X platform in Vietnam.
The SCEX Simulator was developed for the “Crypto Asset Trading Arena” competition – an activity aimed at popularizing knowledge of digital assets organized by VIFC Academy (part of the Vietnam International Finance Corporation in Ho Chi Minh City – VIFC-HCM) and VBI Academy, in which SCEX is a strategic technology partner.
Participants are provided with 1 billion VND in simulated capital to experience trading in an environment closely resembling the real market, with no limit on the number of attempts and no risk of losing real money.
Unlike typical demo or simulator platforms that use fixed price models or simple simulations, SCEX Simulator operates a market-making mechanism, closely tracking the price movements of major cryptocurrency exchanges worldwide. As a result, market fluctuations are reflected in real time, bringing the trading experience closer to real-world operating conditions.
Notably, all transactions on the SCEX Simulator platform are conducted in Vietnamese Dong (VND), aligning with the direction of building a pilot legal framework for the cryptocurrency market in Vietnam, helping users gradually familiarize themselves with the trading model expected to be applied when the market officially operates.
The platform also integrates a mechanism for recording and calculating tax obligations arising from transactions, guiding users to develop a habit of complying with legal regulations from the initial experience stage and raising awareness of investor responsibility in the digital asset environment.
Signals from a ready market.
A representative from SCEX stated that over 22,000 users in just 48 hours is not simply an impressive number; it’s proof that Vietnamese investors are ready and waiting for a “Made in Vietnam” cryptocurrency marketplace, built systematically, compliant with the law, and led by domestic financial institutions.
As one of the five businesses currently under review for pilot licensing of crypto assets in Vietnam under Resolution 05/2025/NQ-CP and Law 71/2025/QH15, SCEX is developed within the ecosystem of reputable financial institutions, possessing a strong foundation and a team of experienced IT experts in the banking and securities sectors in Vietnam.
The positive reception of the SCEX Simulator by the Vietnamese investor community demonstrates SCEX’s pioneering position in bringing crypto assets closer to mainstream investors in Vietnam – in a systematic, transparent, and legally compliant manner.
Besides the goal of disseminating knowledge, SCEX views the Simulator experience phase as a strategic step to gather real-world feedback from users before the market officially goes live.
All trading behavior, usage habits, and feedback from participants will be crucial input data for the SCEX product development team to refine the interface, user experience, and features – ensuring that the official trading platform, upon launch, not only complies with the law but is also truly user-friendly and accessible to the general public, from beginners to experienced investors.（Vietnam Crypto Exchange）
