Not to sound delusional, but please pray for grace. Life isn't really about hard work. It's more about meeting the right people, grace, mercy, and favour.
Asia is doing 63% of all stablecoin payments globally.
Most of the region constantly uses QR codes, mobile wallets, and instant transfers.
Most of the region was already using these payment methods way before stablecoins existed.
So the jump wasn't that big.
Without stablecoins, though, people there would still struggle with:
→ Limited access to USD
→ Expensive payments across borders
→ Uneven traditional banking infrastructure across the continent
If you spend any time in the region, it becomes clear why stablecoins have become a daily necessity there.
The Nigeria police killed this young man without giving him a chance to defend himself. That states a lot.
Please if algorithm brings this to you, retweet until this young man gets justice
While men slept, yesterday night😅, the CBN confirmed the commencement of an AML/CFT/CPF Supervision Pilot for a select group of Virtual Asset Service Providers.
The selected companies are @paystack, @theflutterwave, @kucoincom, @cngn_co, @koinkoinapp and @juicywayhq 🎉
And before you get too excited o, the framing was careful that participation confers no licensing status, no regulatory approval, and does not supersede the existing framework📌
That much is clear.
But clarity of framing does not diminish significance of intent.
Nigeria’s virtual asset regulatory story has been long and turbulent.
We went from a blanket banking sector prohibition in 2021, through gradual re-engagement, to the ongoing question of which regulator owns what.
The CBN’s move here does not resolve that question but it signals that the apex bank is no longer watching from a distance. For the first time in a while, it feels like we have actually left the runway.
This structured supervisory engagement would involve a risk-based programme covering governance, customer onboarding, sanctions screening, transaction monitoring, and FATF Travel Rule preparedness.
The focus on Recommendations 15 and 16 is deliberate. This is the CBN signalling to FATF evaluators that Nigeria is actively supervising this space.
So now I’m thinking🤔, will this remain a compliance exercise, or is it the first step toward a functional, dual-supervised virtual asset ecosystem where the CBN and SEC each hold a defined lane?
I’m curious to hear your thoughts about this…

“I have observed something else under the sun. The fastest runner doesn’t always win the race, and the strongest warrior doesn’t always win the battle. The wise sometimes go hungry, and the skillful are not necessarily wealthy. And those who are educated don’t always lead successful lives. It is all decided by chance, by being in the right place at the right time.”
Ecc 9:11 (NLT).
Or as the wise Yoruba saying goes:
“Obo ko ni skill, igi sunmo igi ni”
(The monkey has no exceptional skill, if the trees are not located near each other).
Essentially, success in life is not always about skill or strength or money or education or anything else- many times in life, success can simply be a function of being at the right place at the right time.
