JAKARTA - Vietnam Prosperity Crypto Asset Exchange (CAEX) has officially partnered with global investors to strengthen its business expansion amid the rapid growth of the crypto market in Southeast Asia.
The company announced the entry of OKX Ventures and HashKey Capital as investors and strategic partners.
Both will inject capital in April 2026 to help CAEX meet the minimum capital requirement of VND 10 trillion or equivalent to 380,000,000 billion US dollars.
This step is crucial because it is a ticket for CAEX to participate in the pilot program for regulated crypto asset trading that the Vietnamese government is preparing.
The entry of these global investors confirms Vietnam's position as one of the most aggressive crypto markets in the world.
Based on Chainalysis data, Vietnam ranks fourth globally in crypto adoption in 2025, with more than 20 million users and transaction values reaching 220 billion US dollars in a year.
Structurally, CAEX is still supported by VPBank Securities and LynkiD as founding shareholders. Both play a role in strengthening capital, governance, and platform technology development.
OKX Ventures and HashKey Capital will contribute to the development of technical infrastructure, cybersecurity, risk management, and global liquidity connectivity.
Vietnam itself has set strict rules in the pilot program, where at least 65 percent of capital must come from institutional investors and foreign ownership is limited to a maximum of 49 percent.
This expansion is also part of OKX's regional strategy in Southeast Asia, including Indonesia which is considered one of the largest crypto markets in the region.
