I stumbled on this just today, am still yet to get further sources, but will be following the news round the clock, to see about the current unfolding of the news.

https://www.today.ng/business/finance/cbn-nigerians-free-bitcoin-353492/ampOn the image above it has it that CBN the central bank of Nigeria, the Paramount government organization in-charge of banking, and finances, has permitted Nigerians to go on with cryptocurrency with out the restrictions the placed some weeks back, this is still uncertainty, but there has been meeting with the Nigerian Senate, and heads of CBN concerning the issue of Ban, also top public figures even the very elderly has supported Bitcoin in Nigeria, this makes me proud as to see how far Nigerians has come in cryptocurrency, Nigeria is a country with
+ Poor banking system
+ Poor payment system
+ Low alternative means for unemployed youths
+ The educational system is still poor.
But cryptocurrency as many Nigerians has realized helps less this problems of the nation and more, I would be even happier to see this news is fully true, and Nigeria has gotten love/encouragement from other cryptocurrency nation at a dark time for cryptocurrency in the country.
If true, this is going to be big news for Nigerian crypto community.
But their is one con also, if failed states like Nigeria adopt btc, it will give wrong message to people in developed nations.
It will be considered associated with failed nations just like it was previously assumed criminals money.
