Nigerian fintech companies are now offering local investors exposure to cryptocurrencies through these new financial products.
Based on the report, Chipper Cash, Bamboo, Chaka, and Trove have begun listing some of the bitcoin ETFs sanctioned by the US Securities and Exchange Commission on their platforms, providing Nigerians an easier way to invest in the world’s largest cryptocurrency.
The approved ETFs are managed by major financial institutions like Ark Invest, VanEck, BlackRock, and Grayscale.
Experts say the ETFs allow traders to gain exposure to Bitcoin’s price movements without having to directly purchase the digital asset.
This opens up cryptocurrency investing to a wider audience in Nigeria. The ETF approvals have already positively impacted Bitcoin’s price and market capitalization globally.
