Speaking about the new integration, ChangPeng Zhao (CZ), Binance CEO, said:

“We believe that Africa is a blockchain continent. We no longer need to bank the unbanked. We can empower them with cryptocurrency financial services directly. Nigeria is a vibrant innovation hub with great passion for cryptocurrencies.

“We strive to provide the easiest cryptocurrency access and best trading service for the African community, and P2P trading is a more flexible approach, giving users the freedom to choose their payment methods and counterparty in a trade.“ 

In order to support trading in NGN, Binance has also announced a unique opportunity for users to become P2P Merchants where they can post trade ads and earn money while providing crypto to their communities.

Users who have a reliable source of fiat and cryptocurrencies can apply now to join the program.

Binance’s aggressive fiat on-ramp strategy involves listing a substantial number of fiat in 2020. As CZ said in early January:

“One of our key goals for 2020 is to bring crypto to the masses. For this, we aim to enable fiat-to-crypto trading for 180+ fiat currencies.”
