Nigeria's Quidax Becomes First Crypto Exchange to Receive Provisional License from Regulators

Quidax, an African crypto platform, has become the first in Nigeria to receive a provisional operating license as a digital assets exchange from national regulators. This move is seen as a significant step towards crypto acceptance from the government, which has historically been hostile towards the industry.

Despite the license, relations between the crypto and the SEC remain tense, with the agency warning Nigerians of the risks of investing in crypto assets.
