@bigbrutha_ Just checked most of the listings — I'm no fan of those rates 21%+, you still got your moat 24%+. Haven't purchased CPs on Piggy but I don't think they've any collateralised-credit perks, against your portfolio. 20mins credit disbursements, 80% of portfolio value, 4%/M.
CBN just dropped the hammer on crypto in 2026.
Every Binance, KuCoin, or crypto transaction must now link to your NIN + TIN.
No more anonymous P2P. No more dodging.
Here’s exactly what this means for every Nigerian dev building fintech or payments apps:
1. Your KYC flow just got 10x stricter — loose phone/email verification is dead.
2. Backend teams must now sync crypto on-ramps with NIN/TIN databases or CBN will flag you.
3. Fraud detection needs real-time TIN checks before crediting stablecoins.
4. VASPs in the new AML pilot (Flutterwave, Paystack, KuCoin etc.) are already feeling the heat.
The real tea: Users who used crypto to beat naira devaluation now get tracked like regular bank transfers.
Smart devs will build compliant stablecoin rails from day 1. The rest will get shut down.
Save this if you're a Nigerian backend dev in 2026.

@zephyr_zig Airtime loans is a value added service. You literally don't even have to take it. And even if it was high, NCC is the one with the mandate to regulate it. Our regulatory overlaps are too many and chaotic.
@asemota@a16z This is some bad ass "I am HIM" campaign.
Nothing is making me smile like the number of FOSS that bloke utilised.
Typical tech savvy misfit 🤣....
Crypto anyday anytime.
Bybit and Binance processed over $4.5B respectively amidst FUD in 2023 and 2025.

But that was how you got me abducted from Portharcourt on May 8, 2019 without any warrant.
May be because I am just an ordinary citizen and not a former governor like you.
As long as the sun rises and settles, you will surely have a taste of your medicine Mallam Nasiru Elrufai.
Please are you not seeing the comments of Nigerians complaining about how PayPal did them dirty?
At least have some solidarity with your people.
I have never used PayPal but the fact that my Nigerians are complaining bitterly about them and PayPal has not showed any remorse or explanation is enough reason for me never to use it.
I returned to NG, now I've install solar system at two different places I resided. Two Powerbox one Jackery - the other Yoabao.
Now I've to buy another Itel Powerbox because there's no sufficient Internet bandwidth in school and I need to deploy Starlink. I'm in the FCT 💔
I moved through Benin-Togo around 1 AM nothing happened, a smooth trip.
The next return trip via Lagos-Efe. We ran into kidnappers, me and na Nigeria roads for long travels na two parallel lines.
Two years of being in Togo, I've never used the Powerbank I brought from Nigeria.

I’ve been to Togo . That’s literally one state in Nigeria, The standard of living, the well constructed roads , the cheap food and clean air. I didn’t want to come back . Cefa is higher than naira but it’s cheaper to vacation in Togo than in Nigeria. These small african countries have left African giant behind .
@BTOofficial@Justolaola@Ekitiketekan@aeonalloy Oga, outsource some of these services. Let the career civil servants focus on supervision and let the private sector come in with very strict KPI's and water-tight SLA's. Your vision cannot be realized with a broken system. Allow efficiency to supercede bureaucracy.
@BTOofficial This has been going on for decades, flush the unqualified & inept personals under your watch at NIS. Undo the contract which poses national security issue to Nigeria as Malaysia's Iris Corporation remains the only producer/Maintainer of passports, why not in-house?
“You're wasting people's precious time” — Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo rebukes NIS officers during an unscheduled visit to the passport office in Gwagwalada, Abuja.
@lifeinsolace SPOILER ALERT; You think this country would ever get better? With the bunch of dimwits and highly insatiable corrupted peeps holding such institutions captive.
As a matter of fact, Nigeria isn't in charge of the key processes to how passports are made, they've outsourced it.
@lifeinsolace A Malaysian based Iris bla bla is the one in charge of that, not something fully embedded/in-housed by the NIS. For over two decades this fraud has been going on. Even the electronic Database, Remote services & maintenance is outsourced, sovereign country my foot.
