Bitcoin Is Illegal In Nigeria. Worry About EFCC? by hayfloze(m): 8:57am On Jun 03, 2018
I was wondering that since Bitcoin trading has been announced by the government to be illegal in Nigeria, will a trader be prosecuted for trading on online websites like blockchain, paxful, luno and co?

We all know what the EFCC and SARS does to the people do Yahoo Yahoo and internet scam. Is this offense of yahoo yahoo also applicable to the Bitcoin Online Traders?

Let's hear from your various views and experience.

Not being a LEGAL TENDER is not the same as being illegal. Pls be clear.
EFFC is not coming after ANYONE.
