📣 Despite President Tinubu's crypto crackdown, Nigeria's love for Bitcoin is hotter than a peppered suya! Google Trends shows Nigeria leading the global Bitcoin interest race, with Delta state taking the gold medal. Lagos, however, seems to be taking a siesta outside the top 15.
Nigerians are embracing stablecoins like USDT, using them as a shield against inflation and currency fluctuations. It's like using an umbrella in a tropical rainstorm - practical and necessary!
But the government isn't sitting idle. They're cooking up regulations to ban P2P crypto exchanges and have accused Binance of stirring the pot of currency manipulation. Binance's top executives even got a taste of Nigerian hospitality with a brief detention.
Despite all this, the crypto spirit in Nigeria remains unbroken. It's like trying to stop a charging elephant with a fly swatter! 🐘
