Selling bitcoin in Nigeria isn’t so straightforward anymore since the central bank’s regulatory restrictions on cryptocurrency companies possessing business bank accounts, causing numerous crypto-to-naira platforms to cease operations.
Fortunately, there’s an easy way to sell your bitcoin and receive your cash directly in your Nigerian bank, thanks to Cryptofully.
In this guide, you will learn how to easily sell your bitcoin for naira using Cryptofully.
Selling Bitcoin in Nigeria Using Cryptofully
Cryptofully is a digital platform – operating on the web and mobile – that allows you to easily sell your bitcoin and receive naira in your bank account within minutes.
The service is not limited by the Nigerian central bank’s regulation because it uses a local peer-to-peer network that enables the company to send naira to any Nigerian bank account. However, you don’t need to find a peer yourself. Cryptofully matches you with a trusted peer.
The process only requires you to send bitcoin to a wallet address, and you receive the cash equivalent in your bank account near-instantly.
The onboarding system is as simple as signing up with an email, adding a BVN, and a bank account to start using the platform to transact.
Read on for a step-by-step guide on how you can sell bitcoin using the Cryptofully website and mobile app.
