BitcoinVN

Long demanded - finally here :-)

DCA with your favourite (hopefully 😁 ) swap platform - either straight to self-custody or - if you're not yet fully set up - initially to your BitcoinVN balance.

Full announcement here ( https://bitcoinvn.io/insights/bitcoinvn-launches-dca-feature/ ) - feedback welcome as always.

If you're in Da Nang next weekend, we'll have a small semi-private gathering.

If you have been using BitcoinVN as a client and/or are otherwise eligible, feel free to reach out for more details via our common support channels. 🙂

No free food involved, so if you just want to scrounge for a free meal - that's the wrong occasion. 😁

BitcoinVN News --> BV Insights

A rebranding which has been due since quite some time.

The page should load faster, the theme be less convoluted, the navigation more intuitive 🙂

Our colleagues over at @BitcoinVNBTM( nprofile1qqsw2w90f97r44gffejp8atu6gklpn2cl6svl0uqk7p4vjl949gs2pqc7zznn ) with more deployments

Thank you to everyone who passed by this Sunday 🧡

In the month of August, our team run in the preparation of our Lightning infrastructure upgrade an expanded stress test of our node & routing infrastructure.

Within ~9 hours, we successfully routed close to 1m$ worth of BTC payments via the Lightning Network - and we were positively surprised that not a single attempted payment failed.

We would like to thank all our peers for their contribution to make this test such a success - as well everyone who contributed to the software stack which made it possible to conduct tests at such scale in the year of 2025.

Full report:

Further routing node stress testing in progress - we just routed our largest Lightning payment ⚡️ to date.

This upcoming Sunday, our team will participate at the 3rd Satoshi Flea Market in Saigon by

Cash for corn, corn for cash - made simple.

Our annual design contest is still ongoing.

The more, the merrier!

Our colleagues recently got their first BTM placement in the beach town of Vung Tau done - as all our machines in the fleet, they work two-way and are generally easy to use :-)

The team welcomes any feedback you might have!

You asked, we delivered 🫡

You can now utilize our #DaNang Cash Office also for deposits into your BitcoinVN account.

If you belong to the unbanked part of the population for one reason or another - here you go.

Simply pick the VND Cash Da Nang option & arrange with our team for your drop off. 🙂

It's taken us a while to come to #DaNang, but here we are 😄

On our mission which we begun in late 2013 to provide an easy & simple on- and offramp in #Vietnam we've always strived to keep the user experience simple and pleasant.

Which also means:

Being a friend of cash and the freedom to live an #unbanked lifestyle.

The technology has of course come a long way since then.

Back in the day, there were barely a handful of mobile wallets on the market; Lightning did not exist and Multisig was something for... the adventurous who were willing to dabble around with commands in the console of their Bitcoin client.

While freedom is certainly under pressure around the world, we also should not underappreciate how far we've all come in the past decade to provide powerful tools for those who seek to opt out from a failing system.

And back to Da Nang:

The city in central Vietnam was not only the host city of #LightningCon2023, one of the first post-lockdown Bitcoin conferences in South East Asia, but also has been increasingly drawing in visitors and digital nomads from around the globe for its "big-city-at-a-beach" lifestyle with (mostly) great climate, access to fresh food and plenty of cultural activities in and around the city.

Give it a visit - and if you need some local cash to keep going...

...you know who can help out :-)

In good company :)

Only two more weeks until

🇯🇵🥳

See you there soon!

Since we have received some questions regarding "Ban Viet" bank - yes, it is supported as is every other domestic bank in #Vietnam

Simply type in the bank you want to find and it shall show up in the dropdown menu 🙂

Any feedback appreciated as always of course 🙏

As the exit doors in Western countries are closing due to the upcoming need to recollateralize the system, the question comes up ever more often:

How can I use BitcoinVN as a non-Vietnam resident?

Using the Cash Offices or Bitcoin ATM's is of course not a practical solution if you have no boots on the ground.

Not often talked about, but:

Up to 250,000 VND (~10 USD) you can use our service globally to convert Fiat into Sats without the need to create an account with our service.

https://bitcoinvn.io/?deposit=vndwise&settle=btcln

Yes, we know those limits are very low due to the risks associated with accepting unverified fiat funds - but for a small steady stacking option, it is a viable option. 🙂

For anything more, there are alternative pathways - and our OTC desk team ( https://bitcoinvn.io/otc ) is happy to help you navigate your options.

For those, who don't know about us yet we will share some notes about the story & history about how #BitcoinVN came to be over the coming weeks and months.

BitcoinVN ( nowadays operating under BitcoinVN.io ) - originally named "Bitcoin Vietnam" - was registered in December 2013 and launched #Vietnam's first Bitcoin Exchange in March 2014.

Now, in hindsight and the year being 2024, the name "Bitcoin Vietnam" sounds certainly rather uninspired.

But:

In those early days the vast majority of the world (and local) population had not even ever(!) heard about #Bitcoin, a situation which is of course vastly different a decade on.

In those very early days, as the very first and second wave of actual business in the Bitcoin ecosystem started to form, naming your company "Bitcoin XYZ" was a very normal thing to do.

After all:

There was NOBODY ELSE in the whole region/country/city being involved with Bitcoin at all besides you and a couple of handful of other guys who all knew each other from Bitcointalk... - those were the days.

We're looking forward to see everyone in #Tokyo next month 😊

Team BitcoinVN will be present at #TBC2024
