Few years ago the use of Bitcoin in Nigeria wasn't restricted by the government due to reasons best known to them but after a while they finally legalized it, some say its because politicians are planning to use it to embezzle funds so it would be untraceable but that doesn't really matter, the main thing here is that people that invest in Bitcoin and make use of it here in Nigeria can go about their business peacefully...Bitcoin is gaining acceptance in every part of the world
I read such kind news wet the Nigerian government being dey strict towards cryptocurrencies and like you, I no know why them come get change of heart. My best guess na be say as some start up companies come dey more tech related, them come see am as means to use increase their revenue and also, despite the fight wey dem give Bitcoin and other digital coins, e no still work.
I remember when the government introduce E-naira, that one kuku no get head or fit be better competition, so them drop am.
Wetin I don understand nah be say, even though the benefits of Bitcoin dey wide, some people go still prefer to use the traditional fiat so e good to first accept say Bitcoin fit dey widespread, but the adoption no go so wide like that except say the government carry am put as a mandatory something.
