What Global On-chain Economy Alliance does

Global On-chain Economy Alliance (GOE Alliance) is a private, multi-stakeholder alliance founded in 2025 and headquartered at the VIFC-HCMC Building (8 Nguyen Hue Street, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam), where it operates as foundational infrastructure for a sovereign on-chain economy. Its core technical offerings are the On-Chain Impact Platform (enabling governments and public institutions to engage the on-chain economy via shared standards and coordinated infrastructure) and the Regulated On-chain Finance Network (supporting compliant DeFi, tokenized real-world assets, institutional onboarding, and programmable compliance), with Newton Protocol serving as the ecosystem's default authorization and compliance layer.

Supporting programs include the IFC HR Development Platform (training 10,000 blockchain developers by 2030 across 20 cohorts in collaboration with UEH), the On-chain Incubation Program, the IFC On-chain Summit, and the IFC Pass in Vietnam onboarding program anchored by the Sáng Đèn (Lights On) workshop campaign. Members participate at three tiers—Core (governance), Strategic (execution), and Standard/VIP (ecosystem access)—and revenue is generated through tiered membership fees and incubation/program fees. Core Members include Tether, Viettel Digital Services, Sky Mavis, Kyber Network, Dragon Capital, Republic, Ava Labs, Onchain Academy, and Newton Protocol (Magic Labs), positioning the alliance as a regulated coordination layer for governments, corporates, financial institutions, and Web3 builders operating within Vietnam's Resolution 222 and Resolution 05 frameworks.
