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.
