- Buy USDT via P2P with KES — Navigate to P2P Trading → Buy → USDT → KES. Filter by payment method (M-Pesa, bank transfer) and choose a merchant with a high completion rate. Send payment and wait for the USDT to be released from escrow. Fee: 0%.

Is It Safe to Buy Crypto in Africa?
Yes — when using reputable, globally regulated exchanges. To protect yourself:
- Enable 2-factor authentication (2FA) on your Bitget/Bybit account immediately after registering.
- Only trade with verified P2P merchants — look for high completion rates and positive feedback.
- Never share your password, 2FA codes, or seed phrases with anyone.
- Invest only what you can afford to lose — crypto prices are volatile.
- Consider withdrawing to a personal wallet for long-term holdings (e.g., Trust Wallet or Ledger).
