Whats Nigerias beef with cryptocurrency?
Is Nigeria done with cryptocurrencies?
For the last couple of years, Nigeria has built a reputation as one of the largest cryptocurrency markets in the world.
On social media, there\u2019s no shortage of \u201crags to riches\u201d stories: people who, having joined the cryptocurrency bubble, made good money in the process.
But the Central Bank of Nigeria is worried about the legality of this trade, as well as its lack of transparency and regulation.
So, it has asked banks to close down cryptocurrency accounts \u2013 which has angered many of the \u201ccrypto-evangelists\u201d involved in the trade.
Could this be the end of cryptocurrencies in Nigeria?
