Is buying bitcoin with Airtel Money legal in Niger?
Bitcoin is not banned in Niger, but it is entirely unregulated. Monetary policy is set regionally by the BCEAO, the central bank of the West African Economic and Monetary Union, which has no crypto framework in force; its leadership describes crypto assets as neither currencies nor regulated financial products and says regional rules remain in preparation. Users therefore operate without local legal protection.
