Nigeria vows to ban peer-to-peer cryptocurrency transactions in Naira and take new measures to control an industry that has been accused by West African countries of damaging local currency units. Emomotimi Agama, the Director-General of the Nigerian Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), said at a meeting with fintech professionals on Monday that new rules covering cryptocurrency exchanges, digital asset custodians, and other areas of the industry will be introduced in the coming days.
