Aeternum brings Second Edition of Unchained Summit to Vietnam on May 28–29

Two days. A resort on Vietnam’s central coast. Government departments as co-hosts, closed-door roundtables, and a speaker line-up drawn from the global Web3, Blockchain, AI and digital asset leadership.

Wednesday, 27 May 2026 Da Nang, Vietnam: Aeternum, organisers of the Unchained Summit series, will host the second edition of Unchained Summit Vietnam this week on 28^th and 29^th May at the Furama Resort in Da Nang.

“Unchained Summit brings together public and private sector leaders in a room where the real work gets done — cutting through the noise to map the future of crypto in markets like Vietnam that are actively shaping the rules.”

• Tanna Chong, Head of Public Policy, VerifyVASP

“The regulatory frameworks are in place, the capital is ready to move, and the window to build Asia’s next generation of digital asset companies is open. Unchained Summit is where that conversation belongs.”

• Adam Nguyen, Executive Director, Sora Ventures

“Vietnam has one of the most active crypto communities globally, and institutional appetite for tokenised real-world assets is accelerating. Unchained Summit puts that appetite in the same room as the infrastructure being built to serve it.”

• Duke Du, Co-Founder and CTO, OpenEden

“Da Nang has earned its place in the global Web3 conversation. The institutional interest, the government engagement, the calibre of participants choosing to be here — that does not happen by accident.
