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.
