Launching the On-chain Economy in IFC Vietnam: Master Plan 2025 – 2030

Launching the On-chain Economy in IFC Vietnam: Master Plan 2025 2030

Vietnam is stepping boldly into the future of global finance and innovation with the official launch of the On-chain Economy in IFC Vietnam Master Plan (2025–2030). This strategic initiative positions Vietnam as a leading hub in the global On-chain era by leveraging blockchain and tokenized assets to modernize its economic foundation, attract investment, and create a dynamic ecosystem for digital innovation.

What Is the Master Plan?

The On-chain Economy in IFC Vietnam Master Plan (2025–2030) is a comprehensive roadmap designed to build the institutional foundation, policy framework, and practical ecosystem needed to develop Vietnam’s On-chain Economy. It aims to align Vietnam with global digital economic trends, unlocking the value of underutilized domestic assets while reinforcing the country’s competitive edge among emerging International Financial Centers (IFCs), particularly in Ho Chi Minh City and Da Nang.

Who Founded the Master Plan?

The initiative is spearheaded by two founding entities:

  • On-chain Academy: A premier educational institution in the Asia-Pacific region focused on blockchain and On-chain economic transformation.

  • Center Of Consultancy, Information & Training on Economic and Business Management (CIT) – a unit under the Ho Chi Minh City Institute for Development Studies (HIDS): The official human resource and policy advisory partner for the Ho Chi Minh City IFC.

Together, these institutions provide both the intellectual leadership and policy support necessary to bring the Master Plan to life.

Vision of the Master Plan

The Master Plan is designed to:

  • Enable Vietnam’s equal participation in the global digital economy.

  • Unlock the latent value of under-utilized and illiquid domestic assets.

  • Strengthen Vietnam’s position as a regional financial and innovation hub.
