-Nigeria ranks as the world’s second-largest cryptocurrency user base.

-Inflation in Nigeria reached 29.9% in January 2024, a major driver of the government’s shift in stance on cryptocurrencies.

On February 29th, 2024, they announced their expansion into Nigeria, a country experiencing a government clampdown on cryptocurrency platforms. This decision raises questions about Strike’s strategy and the future of crypto in Africa’s most populous nation.

Nigeria boasts the highest cryptocurrency adoption rate in Africa, with an estimated 32 million users according to a 2023 Statista report.

Rume Ophi Advises Nigerians on Crypto Ban and way out

Nigeria has emerged as a powerhouse in the global peer-to-peer (P2P) crypto trading scene, defying initial resistance from the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN). This surge in P2P trading, characterized by direct transactions between individuals, can be attributed to several factors, including limited access to traditional financial services, the desire to hedge against inflation, and the pursuit of portfolio diversification.

According to data from UsefulTulips.org, Nigeria’s monthly P2P crypto trading volume surged to $33.1 million in 2021, up from $25.8 million in 2020, marking a substantial 28 percent increase year-on-year.

This significant growth underscores the increasing popularity and adoption of P2P crypto trading in Nigeria despite regulatory challenges.

However, this rapid growth is not without its challenges. The decentralized nature of P2P trading presents unique regulatory hurdles. The lack of oversight exposes users to potential scams, fraud, and unfair practices.

Furthermore, the inherent volatility of cryptocurrencies poses financial risks, particularly for inexperienced users. Additionally, the CBN’s uncertain stance on cryptocurrencies creates an environment of ambiguity for investors and businesses alike.
