The original blockchain token &#8211; Bitcoin &#8211; went from just $1,000 to around $20,000 in 2017 alone. Since then, major corporations from Deloitte to Maersk have created their own blockchains. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Despite all these developments, it is still impossible for many people to buy their own Bitcoin. This is partly because buying crypto usually requires KYC checks and other verification processes that rely on passports and similar documents. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another reason endemic to countries like Nigeria is that many people are underbanked, meaning they have no simple way to buy what they want online. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In this article, we\u2019ll explain why Nigerians specifically have a hard time buying Bitcoin &#8211; and how CoinCola offers a safe, fast, inexpensive way to purchase the cryptocurrency. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Underbanked Nigeria<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Like most African countries, Nigeria has a banking problem. This is partly because historically weak infrastructure, partly because for cultural reasons, and partly because many Nigerians don\u2019t have the ID required to be served by a bank. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To solve this problem, 2012\u2019s National Financial Inclusion Strategy made a plan to reduce financial exclusion all the way down to just 20% by 2020. One of the ways in which the country is trying to achieve this goal is through PayPal-type services attached to users\u2019 mobile phones, rather than their IDs. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At this point, Nigeria has over 20 licensed mobile money operators. Nigerian residents can use them with limited KYC requirements, gaining access to some measure of banking services with just a driver\u2019s license, a birth certificate, etc. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The problem is that most of these mobile money operators are not directly compatible with international services like PayPal. Another is that making a bank transfer with a mobile money account is not possible without serious restrictions. As a result, buying Bitcoin through normal means is impossible for most Nigerians. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>How CoinCola helps<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In many cases, users buy Bitcoin from an ATM, a vendor\u2019s website, or a crypto exchange. In all these situations, they need a card, a checkbook, or a bank account. Fortunately, CoinCola offers a sound alternative for the underbanked. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That\u2019s because CoinCola is an OTC marketplace that connects users to other users and lets them buy and sell Bitcoin and other coins any way they like.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For example, let\u2019s say you register with CoinCola. If you find someone who accepts Nigerian-based mobile money transfers as payment, you can buy directly from them without having to go through a website or exchange. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The usual problem with transactions like these is that they can be risky &#8211; but that\u2019s exactly what CoinCola is there for. Their service provides numerous safeguards, like an escrow service and a dispute settlement process that makes sure deals are honest. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Perhaps most importantly, CoinCola lets users pass KYC checks in numerous ways that are similar to what Nigerian mobile money operators use. This means that even underbanked Nigerians can buy cryptocurrencies safely and quickly on the platform. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To register with CoinCola, simply go to CoinCola.com now. <\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.coincola.com\/signup\/email\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-165\" src=\"https:\/\/www.coincola.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/sign-up-now-btn.png\" alt=\"sign up coicola\" width=\"371\" height=\"96\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.coincola.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/sign-up-now-btn.png 494w, https:\/\/www.coincola.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/sign-up-now-btn-300x78.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 371px) 100vw, 371px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<h3><strong>Follow CoinCola on Social Media<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Twitter: <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/CoinCola_Global\">https:\/\/twitter.com\/CoinCola_Global<\/a><br \/>\nFacebook: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/CoinCola\/\">https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/CoinCola\/<\/a><br \/>\nInstagram: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/CoinCola\/\">https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/CoinCola\/<\/a><br \/>\nLinkedIn: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/coincola\/\">https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/coincola\/<\/a><\/p>\n<h3><strong>About CoinCola<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Founded in 2016, CoinCola is a Hong Kong based company offering both <a href=\"https:\/\/www.coincola.com\/buy-bitcoin\">over-the-counter<\/a> cryptocurrency trading and crypto-to-crypto pair trading <a href=\"https:\/\/www.coincola.com\/trading\/btc\/usdt\">exchange<\/a>.
