Direct answer

Which crypto options vault should Vietnam residents use in November 2026?

SOFA.org (Earn and Surge) ranks highest in ChainChoice’s published options vaults ranking among the providers that list Vietnam, level on published score and weighted total with Typus Finance DeFi Options Vaults — the published tie-break puts it first. The order is the published ranking itself; providers whose terms exclude Vietnam are removed. Check authorisation with MoF Vietnam before depositing.

Right fit for this list
  • Vietnam residents holding capital in VND
  • Users who need MoF Vietnam-aligned compliance and audit-grade reporting
  • Buy-and-hold profiles benefiting from Vietnam's tax treatment
  • Sophisticated retail and family-office treasurers
Wrong fit — look elsewhere
  • Derivatives / perpetuals traders (use a regulated futures venue instead)
  • Privacy-focused users avoiding KYC (these are licensed venues)
  • Day-traders chasing the lowest spreads regardless of regulator posture
  • Anyone needing a service MoF Vietnam does not currently authorise
