Nigeria is rapidly becoming a significant economy in the crypto world. The country’s Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is preparing to license crypto providers. This move responds to Nigeria’s growing interest in cryptocurrencies. Recent developments indicate a shift in the country’s perspective on the crypto sector.

Cryptocurrencies in Nigeria have long been under pressure. However, the Central Bank’s lifting of the ban on facilitating crypto transactions last December shows the country is warming up to this new economic power.

Nigeria’s SEC announced that crypto and token service providers must obtain licenses. The licensing process is expected to start this month.

Nigeria is preparing a bill to tax cryptocurrencies in September. The Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS) is leading this effort. However, some officials blame cryptocurrencies for the Naira’s devaluation, citing increased dollar outflows. Large transactions, especially through Binance, are claimed to negatively impact the economy. In this context, Binance executive Tigran Gambaryan is currently detained in the country.
Nigeria joins countries like South Africa, France, and the United Kingdom in licensing crypto providers. These developments will solidify Nigeria’s position in the global crypto economy. A new era is beginning for both crypto users and the government.
In response to the rapid growth of the crypto market, Nigeria’s move to license crypto firms starting this month is noteworthy. The expectations of the crypto community are also significant. The introduction of a legal framework and licensing regime indicates a shift in the government’s view of the crypto sector. The new licensing process is part of Nigeria’s plans to regulate and tax the crypto economy.
