Bitcoin Soars In Nigeria As Government Promotes Digital Cash
Bitcoin (BTC) has seen an exponential increase in demand in Nigeria as the country’s central bank encourages the population to switch to digital cash. As a result, the price of Bitcoin has escalated tremendously above global market levels.
The cost of one Bitcoin on Nigeria’s Crypto exchange NairaEx is currently trading at around 17.6 million Naira, Nigeria’s currency, equivalent to $38,200 U.S. dollars. This represents an increase of almost 60% compared to Bitcoin’s current price of $23,150 as of this writing.
Nigeria Bets On Bitcoin And Digital Assets Adoption
The Bitcoin pump in this Nigeria’s cryptocurrency exchange comes after the country’s central bank began limiting over-the-counter (OTC) cash withdrawals by individuals and corporate organizations per week.
Erretiratzeko muga-politika honek nigeriarrei gehienez 20,000 Naira (NGN) erretiratzeko aukera ematen die, 43 dolar inguruko balioa, herrialdeko kutxazainetatik egunean, eta 100,000 NGN-ko mugarekin, 217 $ balio duena.
The argitaratutako gutuna in December 2022, in which the Central Bank of Nigeria redesigned its policy regarding cash withdrawal limit, has resulted in a premium being added to the price of Bitcoin in the African country.
Neurri honek ustez dirua zuritzea eta Afrikako herrialdeko inflazioa murriztea du helburu, Nigeriako inflazio-tasaren azken txostenean 21.34ko abenduan % 2022koa zen. Apur bat jaitsi zen % 21.47ko gailurretik.
Nigeriako Banku Zentralak ere urtarrilaren 24ra arte eman zien nigeriarrei izendapen handiagoko billete zaharrak txanpon berriarekin trukatzeko. Neurri horrek ezinegona eragin zuen biztanleriarengan; jendeak jakinarazi zuen epea laburregia zela, eta horrek luzapena ekarri zuen.
Nigeriak Crypto Aktiboekin duen harreman luzeaNigeriako Banku Zentralak bide luzea egin du moneta digitalak hartzeko. 2021ean, Banku Zentralak zirkular bat eman zien finantza-erakunde guztiei kripto-trukeei zerbitzuak emateari uzteko. Gainera, kriptografia-monetak aktiboki erabiltzen dituzten eta aktibo digitalen merkataritza egiten duten pertsonen eta enpresen kontuak ixteko eskatu zuen.
A few months later, Nigeria planned to pass a law recognizing Bitcoin and digital assets as capital for investment. This industry has generated a lot of interest and alternatives to diversify capital and provide solutions to economic problems in different countries.
Lege hau herrialdeko banku zentralak Banku Zentraleko Moneta Digitala (CBDC) sartu ez ostean ezarri zen. Aktibo digital hau, e-Naira izenekoa, iaz biztanleriak gaizki onartu eta hartu zuen, %0.5eko adopzio-tasa izan zuen.
Nigeria has also been in talks with Binance, the world’s number one crypto exchange, to develop an economic zone to support crypto and blockchain businesses in the region.
Bitcoin has begun a correction as of press time, falling 4.6% in the last 24 hours. And 0.1% down in the last seven days in the global markets. Investors expect the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting tomorrow to have an impact in the price action.
