Nigerian President-elect Bola Tinubu recently released a manifesto proposing that he review the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)'s existing regulations on digital assets to make them more business-friendly. The proposed regulations would require digital asset companies to register with the SEC and require all digital asset issuance and investments to comply with SEC regulations. The new regulations provide a framework for Nigeria to regulate cryptocurrencies and other digital assets. If the manifesto is passed, it will allow the use of blockchain technology and cryptocurrencies in the banking and financial sectors. (Cointelegraph)
