Celo (CELO) is a mobile-first blockchain platform specifically designed to make financial tools accessible to people with smartphones, with a strong focus on emerging markets in Africa and Latin America. CELO is the native token used for governance and securing the Celo network. African traders can buy and sell CELO on Bitget and Bybit.
P2P crypto trading is widely practised in Nigeria and is not explicitly banned for individuals. The CBN restricts banks from processing crypto transactions — that is why P2P via OPay, PalmPay, and Kuda exists. Millions of Nigerians use it daily. As with any financial activity, use reputable platforms and stay updated on CBN guidance.
