A few days ago I shared how Nigerian youth are surviving insane inflation, fuel hikes, and crypto bans.
But let me show you what’s really happening here.
Young Nigerians Today:
Work 2–3 jobs in which some are digital while some handwork
Swap USDT for Naira in Telegram groups
Use VPNs to access blocked exchanges
Build side hustles using YouTube, Upwork, Crypto, and more
Hold sats secretly. Not to flex but to survive.
CBN says “crypto is illegal.”
We say: “It’s freedom tech.”
They froze accounts.
We opened our own digital banks with wallets and stablecoins.
No jobs?
We created our own global economy online.
Bitcoin isn’t just a store of value here.
It’s a lifeline.
It’s dignity.
It’s how many are paying their rent, sending siblings to school, and escaping poverty — silently.
🚧 No Banks. No Jobs. No Hope?
We said NO to all that.
We chose:
🔐 Privacy
⚡ Sats
🧠 Skillsets
If you’re in a free country using crypto for memes or side income, just know in Nigeria and across Africa, Bitcoin is saving lives.
🗣️ Drop a ⚡ if you’re stacking against the odds.
💬 Ask me anything about what life is like on the crypto underground.
