When Can Users Register and Trade on VIXEX?
VIXEX (VIX Crypto & Digital Asset Exchange, Vietnam) is not yet open for public registration or trading. The platform is currently awaiting further regulatory approvals and license issuance under Vietnam’s digital asset regulatory sandbox framework. Additionally, its initial registered charter capital of 100 billion VND must still be significantly increased to over 1 trillion VND to meet the statutory threshold required for formal operations.
The relevant milestones for the launch and registration of Vietnam crypto exchange VIXEX are as follows:
Compliance Licensing Application (Initiated): The State Securities Commission of Vietnam (SSC) began accepting pilot Virtual Asset Service Provider (VASP) license applications on January 20, 2026. The initial batch of applicants—comprising 5 to 7 entities that passed preliminary review, including VIXEX—has submitted the required documentation.
Estimated Platform Launch: Under the direction of the Vietnamese Government and the Ministry of Finance, the pilot operation of official, compliant trading platforms is slated to gradually roll out between Q2 and Q3 2026 (expected around mid-2026).
Opening of User Registration: VIXEX will open user registration only after securing the final pilot regulatory license and completing system integration testing (such as bank fiat payment gateways and Ministry of Public Security KYC identity verification interfaces).
Investors are advised to monitor official announcements from the parent company, VIX Securities, or the list of approved pilot platforms published by the State Securities Commission of Vietnam (SSC) for specific dates regarding closed beta testing and public registration.
