A lot of softness will emerge if the CBN start to see the bigger picture, and there's hope for that because of their recent soft spot for crypto. No be whining oo... Millions of Nigerian youths already know the Bitcoin space and crave more of its usage.
Myself as an example, freelancing will become much easier to receive and also make payments.
With lesser restrictions and regulations, Bitcoin adoption can come in, it would surely be beneficial to a Nigerian legit hustler
You’re right, most young Nigerians are already aware of Bitcoin, not because CBN encouraged it, but because the system forced them to look for alternatives. Freelancers especially have seen how easy it is to get paid globally with Bitcoin compared to the stress of traditional banks.
If CBN takes a softer stance, it won’t just help individual hustlers, it will also create more opportunities for innovation and businesses built around crypto. At the end of the day, adoption will keep growing, regulation should focus on making it safer, not blocking it.
