VIX Securities contributes capital to establish a trillion-dollar company on crypto assets

On August 26, 2025, a new company was established called VIX Cryptocurrency Exchange Joint Stock Company (abbreviated as VIXEX). The company is headquartered at 22nd Floor, 52 Le Dai Hanh Street, Hai Ba Trung Ward, Hanoi City.

This company has a registered capital of 1,000 billion VND, and the number of shares authorized for public offering is 100 million shares.

According to information from Investment Online Newspaper, VIX Cryptocurrency Exchange Joint Stock Company has three founding shareholders. FTG Vietnam Joint Stock Company is the largest shareholder with a 64.5% stake. 3C Computer - Communication - Control Joint Stock Company contributes 20.5%, and VIX Securities Joint Stock Company contributes 15%.

Mr. Nguyen Van Hieu (born in 1978) is currently the General Director and legal representative of VIXEX.

In the list of founding shareholders of VIXEX, FTG Vietnam was a shareholder of VIX Securities in 2022. The CEO of FTG Vietnam at that time was the husband of Ms. Nguyen Thi Tuyet - the Chairwoman of the Board of Directors of VIX and a major shareholder of VIX during that period.

Regarding digital asset exchanges, according to the Korea Herald recently, Dunamu Group and Military Commercial Joint Stock Bank (MB) signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) at the Vietnam-Korea Business Forum in Seoul to cooperate in launching the first domestic digital asset exchange in Vietnam.

At a cryptocurrency event held in early August 2025, the Chairman of the Vietnam Blockchain and Digital Asset Association (VBA) revealed that Vietnam plans to have approximately 5 exchanges licensed for pilot trading of digital assets.

The Ministry of Finance is currently drafting a Decree on piloting digital asset transactions, to be submitted to the Government for promulgation. The pilot project for the cryptocurrency market has been largely completed in terms of: criteria for selecting participating organizations, technical requirements, operating procedures, and the financial and professional capacity of the units proposing to provide the service.

In addition to the requirement of 10,000 billion VND in paid-up capital, the license to provide services for organizing cryptocurrency trading markets also has stricter requirements regarding shareholder structure, such as 65% of the capital being owned by institutions, of which 35% must be held by at least two institutions: commercial banks, securities companies, fund management companies, insurance companies, or technology companies. The foreign ownership ratio cannot exceed 49%.
