Northern Nigeria is home to 68.6% of Nigerians who are economically excluded, according to a survey by EFInA. In order to ensure locals have a solid understanding of the technology and can use cryptocurrency for improved financial accessibility, Binance is bringing its teaching initiatives to the area.
This would thus open up new prospects for Northern Nigerians, many of whom will learn new skills, career opportunities, and access to financial systems that were previously inaccessible to them. Notably, they may put themselves in a position to profit from this wealth transfer period by assisting them in understanding the blockchain ecosystem.
