Frequently asked questions

Which exchanges accept P2P trades in kwacha in Zambia?

Of the 3 exchanges we recommend in Zambia, Binance accepts P2P trades in kwacha for funding purchases.

Is buying bitcoin with P2P trades in kwacha legal in Zambia?

No Zambian law bans buying or holding bitcoin, so it is legal by default but unregulated. The Bank of Zambia has stated that cryptocurrencies are not legal tender, and the Securities and Exchange Commission warns the public about unregulated crypto investment schemes. A formal framework is in the works: the central bank's 2024 to 2027 strategic plan includes developing regulation for crypto assets and stablecoins, but until it lands users have no local recourse.
