Nigeria
Nigeria is one of the world's largest grassroots Bitcoin markets, driven by a fast-depreciating naira, high inflation and a young, mobile-first population looking for a reliable store of value and cheaper remittances. The regulatory path has been volatile: in 2021 the Central Bank barred banks from serving bitcoin businesses, then reversed course in late 2023 and issued guidelines allowing them back in, while the SEC began licensing digital-asset exchanges. Bitcoin is not legal tender, but peer-to-peer trading here ranks among the busiest on the planet. Communities in Lagos, Abuja and beyond keep the scene vibrant with meetups and education, and merchants from cafes to tech shops increasingly accept sats.
