🔫 Last night, Israel launched strikes on Iran's nuclear facilities, triggering a strong reaction across global financial markets.

Amid rising geopolitical tensions, stock index futures moved lower, while oil and gold prices climbed steadily as investors sought safe-haven assets in anticipation of potential conflict escalation.

The cryptocurrency market also came under pressure. Bitcoin reacted to the news with a sharp drop, briefly falling to around $103 000. Volatility surged, leading to the liquidation of trader positions totaling approximately $1.1 billion over the past 24 hours.

Overall, cryptocurrencies — like other risk assets — are showing negative dynamics in response to growing global uncertainty.

🇻🇳 Vietnam is actively working on crypto regulation, aiming to establish clear rules by 2025 — from taxation to exchange infrastructure.

The Ministry of Finance is testing AML/KYC frameworks, piloting a crypto exchange with Bybit’s support, and gradually introducing fiscal measures, including up to 35% income tax for individuals and 10% VAT on exchange services. The first $400 of annual income remains tax-free.

Over 20% of the population already holds crypto, and that number could exceed 21 million by 2026. Vietnam ranks in the global top 10 for adoption, though state institutions are still keeping their distance.

By 2027, full regulation of digital asset issuance and trading is expected. For now, crypto remains in a grey zone — neither banned nor officially recognized.
