Cryptocurrency exchange Binance is unexpectedly trending on Twitter in Nigeria today, despite its P2P services being banned in the country since February 2021. While the exact reason for the surge remains unclear, experts point to several potential factors reigniting discussions around crypto regulation and user interest.
Possible Triggers:
- Renewed Regulatory Debates: Ongoing discussions and debates about cryptocurrency regulation in Nigeria could be attracting renewed attention online. Recent statements from authorities or industry figures might have sparked speculation and interest.
- Central Bank’s Stance: The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN)’s cautious approach towards cryptocurrencies, including issuing warnings and proposing restrictive measures, could be a focal point of online discussions. Any updates or developments related to the CBN’s stance could be driving Twitter activity.
- Alternative Trading Methods: Although P2P trading is banned, Nigerians might still be using alternative methods to access Binance, such as peer-to-peer trading on other platforms or international accounts. Increased activity in these alternative methods could be contributing to the trend.

At least Buhari was humble enough to accept that he was too dumb to understand how cryptocurrency works, so he just banned it outright.
These ones think Binance is Access Bank, and they can stop p2p trading by leaning on the exchange platform.
The hubris of the dumb Lagos boys.
