Exchange Partnership Targets Vietnam Pilot Program With $380 Million Capital Threshold

According to an April 10 press release, OKX Ventures and HashKey Capital joined VPBank Securities and LynkiD as CAEX shareholders ahead of the exchange’s planned entry into Vietnam’s tightly regulated digital asset market.

Fact Check
The claim is strongly supported by primary sources. The VPBank press release explicitly states that on April 10, 2026, OKX Ventures and HashKey Capital entered agreements to invest in CAEX and become strategic partners alongside founding shareholders VPBankS and LynkiD, and that the funding is meant to help CAEX meet the VND 10 trillion (USD 380 million) capital requirement for Vietnam’s pilot program. OKX’s own announcement independently confirms the same shareholder/partner structure and the same capital threshold purpose. CoinDesk and crypto.news both align with these official statements. I found no conflicting evidence in this run.
