Vietnam has launched the NDAChain, a national blockchain platform with 49 validator nodes. Operated by a public-private consortium, it aims to enhance digital infrastructure in sectors like government, education, and healthcare, supporting digital sovereignty by 2026.
Vietnam has officially launched NDAChain, a national blockchain platform featuring 49 validator nodes managed by a public-private consortium to enhance digital infrastructure.
Launched as part of Vietnamโs digital sovereignty strategy, NDAChain aims to integrate national data by 2026, impacting government and finance sectors.
The National Data Association has developed NDAChain, partnering with the Data Innovation and Exploitation Center. A mix of state agencies and corporations, including SunGroup, are operating 49 validator nodes.
NDAChainโs launch aims to secure and modernize key digital infrastructures in government, education, healthcare, and finance. Nguyen Huy, Head of Technology at NDA, described it as a protective layer for the countryโs data, stating:
โNDAChain acts as a protective layer for the nationโs live data, critical to our digital society and economy.โ
Financial implications of NDAChainโs introduction see no immediate impact on major cryptocurrencies or the open DeFi space, as itโs a permissioned blockchain primarily featuring state data.
The project is expected to influence digital identity and security standards within the nation. Future phases will involve broader integration into Vietnamโs digital infrastructure.
Industry observers note NDAChainโs alignment with international traceability standards and its potential role in cybersecurity and state modernization initiatives.
