Where to buy bitcoin in Vietnam

Vietnam consistently ranks near the top of global bitcoin adoption, and the rules have finally been taking shape. From our vetted list, Strike serves Vietnam on its global tier (balances there are held in USDT; bitcoin buys work normally) and Kraken serves it too — while Coinbase doesn’t operate here at all. The no-ID route below also works, minus Peach, which excludes Vietnam.

Apps & exchanges serving Vietnam Updated July 2026

All of these ask for ID — that’s the regulation talking, not the company. The “Checked” date on each card is when we last verified it.

Strike US + 95+ countries

A clean bitcoin-only app built on the Lightning network. Buy with a bank transfer at a transparent tiered fee (recurring buys are free after the first week), then send or withdraw instantly for pennies. Covers all 50 US states and 95+ countries.

Why it’s here: The app we'd hand a beginner who plans to actually use their sats, not just hold them.

Fees: 0.5–1% Withdraw: Lightning + on-chain Checked Jul 2026 Visit
Kraken 190+ countries

A veteran exchange, running since 2011, serving 190+ countries and every US state except New York and Maine. Instant Buy costs ~1.5%, but the same account unlocks Kraken Pro at 0.25–0.4% — and Lightning withdrawals are free.

Why it’s here: The cheapest all-in route on this list, if you're willing to learn a real exchange screen.

Fees: 0.25–0.4% on Pro Withdraw: Lightning free + on-chain Checked Jul 2026 Visit

Buy without ID in Vietnam

Private, but not beginner-easy: you’re trading with another person, prices run above market (a couple percent on some venues, 10%+ on others), and support is a forum, not a help desk. Start with the list above unless privacy is the point.

Hodl Hodl Worldwide, except US

A P2P marketplace running since 2018: no ID at any trade size, every trade locked in 2-of-3 multisig escrow where you hold one of the keys. Works from any browser — though its terms bar US residents since 2026.

Why it’s here: No ID at any amount — and holding an escrow key means the trade can't move without you.

Fees: up to 1.5% Escrow: 2-of-3 multisig Checked Jul 2026 Visit
Bisq Worldwide

The decentralized old-timer: software that trades over Tor with no company behind it at all. The newer Bisq Easy mode is far friendlier, but sellers there charge a real premium — often 10% or more — as the price of its reputation-based security.

Why it’s here: The most censorship-resistant way to buy there is — you pay for that in the premium, not in fees.

Runs on: desktop app / Tor Catch: seller premiums on Easy Checked Jul 2026 Visit
RoboSats Worldwide

An entirely Lightning-based P2P exchange reached over Tor. Fees are tiny and trades settle in minutes — but you'll need a Lightning wallet and the Tor browser before you can start.

Why it’s here: For the already-comfortable: the cheapest private sats on the internet.

Fees: ~0.2% Needs: Tor + Lightning wallet Checked Jul 2026 Visit
