🇰🇪 Kenya just imposed a 1.5% tax on all cryptocurrency transactions.
This move makes Kenya one of the few African nations actively taxing crypto activity.
Whether you're buying, selling, or trading — the government gets a cut. 💸
👉 What does this mean?
– Reduced trading margins
– Pressure on local crypto platforms
– A possible shift to P2P or offshore exchanges
The world is watching how emerging markets regulate crypto. Kenya just took a big step.

Cryptocurrencies to Be Legalized in Kenya
A local newspaper cites Treasury Cabinet Secretary John Mbadi as saying that Kenya is about to make a policy change by introducing legislation to legalize cryptocurrency.
Mbadi, in a Friday speech, detailed the government's intentions to establish regulations for the cryptocurrency business, which has been operating underground despite a formal prohibition.
Speaking on Kenya's banking industry, Mbadi praised it as an example of African creativity and progress. "New possibilities and threats have emerged in the global and domestic financial systems as a result of the development and expansion of virtual assets and the businesses that provide these services."
Kenya should reap the advantages of the cryptocurrency market while minimizing its hazards, according to Mbadi, who acknowledged the perils of cryptocurrencies include fraud, money laundering, and terrorist funding.
Additionally, he said that the Kenyan government is dedicated to developing the appropriate legal and regulatory framework to take advantage of VAs and VASPs while mitigating the dangers that come with them.
Global Monetary Fund Calls on Kenya to Set Clear Crypto Regulations
Improving financial literacy and creating a level playing field in the cryptocurrency industry are two goals of the proposed regulation.
In a recent statement, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) asked Kenya to address consumer protection and financial crime issues associated to cryptocurrencies by developing rules. This approach is in line with those demands.
On January 8, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) published a technical assistance study in which it highlighted problems with Kenya's present strategy for regulating cryptocurrency.
This change in regulation has the potential to make Kenya a regional center for blockchain innovation while also addressing systemic issues, as the country joins an increasing number of African governments that are adopting bitcoin.

Kenyan Court Orders Sam Altman's Crypto Project to Delete Biometric Data: A Wake-Up Call for Worldcoin?
On 06/05/2025, the High Court of Nairobi, Kenya, ruled that Sam Altman's Worldcoin project must delete all biometric data collected in Kenya within 7 days under government supervision, increasing global pressure on the company. Is this the end of Worldcoin's ambitions? Let's analyze in detail.
Ruling in Kenya: Violation of Privacy Rights
The court ruled that #Worldcoin (formerly called Worldcoin), and their agents collected biometric data (iris scans) without valid consent from the Office of the Data Protection Commission (ODPC), using cryptocurrency (token $WLD ) as a 'club' to lure users, violating the principle of voluntary consent. Joshua Malidzo Nyawa, a lawyer from the Katiba Institute – the suing organization, called this a 'victory for privacy in Kenya.' He emphasized: 'Privacy is a constitutional right, violations can occur if procedures like data security impact assessments are not followed. Consent after being lured with money or crypto is illegal.' Worldcoin has not immediately responded to requests for comment.

KENYA LEADING ACROSS AFRICA🇰🇪
>In crypto currency investment and adoption .
Kenya is undeniably the leading force in cryptocurrency investment across Africa, with an unparalleled surge in digital currency adoption. In 2024 alone, over 15 million Kenyans, representing nearly 30% of the country's population, have embraced cryptocurrency as part of their financial portfolio. This places Kenya far ahead of other African nations in terms of per capita crypto adoption.
The financial commitment to crypto in Kenya is equally extraordinary. Kenyan investors have poured a staggering $40 billion into the digital asset market, outpacing every other African nation by a wide margin. This surge in investment is driving not only a revolution in personal wealth but also fueling the growth of a thriving crypto ecosystem, with over 5,000,000 new crypto accounts opening each month.
The Kenyan government and financial institutions are also backing this crypto movement, creating a favorable regulatory environment that has made Nairobi the crypto capital of Africa. Kenyan blockchain startups are raising millions in funding, and several have gained international recognition, attracting investors from Silicon Valley and beyond.
This booming crypto market has created new opportunities for job growth, with tens of thousands of Kenyans now working in the blockchain and digital finance sectors. Kenya’s crypto revolution is setting the stage for an economic transformation that will make it one of the world’s leading players in the digital economy.

Kenya Bans Worldcoin (WLD) After Indonesia: Global Regulatory Crackdown Escalates
The Kenyan High Court has deemed the operations of Sam Altman's Worldcoin Foundation unlawful, mandating the removal of biometric data gathered from Kenyan citizens within a week.
This decision, announced on May 5, 2025, follows Indonesia's suspension of the project due to regulatory infractions.
Kenya Court Orders Data Deletion Within Seven Days
Justice Aburili Roselyne issued three directives against Sam Altman's Worldcoin Foundation for breaching Kenya's Data Protection Act of 2019.
The Court mandated the foundation to erase all iris and facial biometric data gathered from Kenyan citizens.
The Data Protection Commissioner is responsible for supervising this process, which is required to be finalized within a week.
The Court determined that the data was acquired without a legitimate Data Protection Impact Assessment and concluded that the consent was invalid, as it was secured through financial incentives linked to Worldcoin's cryptocurrency.
“An order of Mandamus compelling the Worldcoin Foundation and its agents to permanently delete (under the supervision of the Data Protection Commissioner) within seven days any biometric data collected in Kenya.”
An additional directive forbade the foundation and its representatives from gathering, processing, or managing any biometric data within the nation.
A subsequent order revoked any previous authorizations permitting the company to collect or process such data.
Nevertheless, in spite of this restriction, Worldcoin has recently taken a positive step by launching $WLD ID in the United States, coinciding with Coinbase's intention to list the token.
Legal Challenge Led by Katiba Institute
The ruling of the Court comes in response to a legal challenge initiated by the Katiba Institute, a civil society organization based in Kenya.
This organization raised concerns regarding the legality of the data collection methods employed by Sam Altman's Worldcoin, which utilizes a digital application and biometric Orb devices.
They contended that the foundation did not adhere to the privacy protections stipulated in national legislation.
Following the ruling, the Katiba Institute stated,
“Today, Lady Justice Aburili Roselyne has allowed our Judicial Review Application, where we challenged the collection, processing, and transfer of iris and facial images using the Worldcoin App and the Orb against the Worldcoin Foundation.”
Worldcoin commenced its operations in Nairobi at the beginning of 2023, providing cryptocurrency valued at Ksh7,000 in return for biometric information.
However, the government suspended the registration process due to the significant influx of people at public locations, which raised alarms regarding security and privacy issues.
Worldcoin Also Faces Suspension in Indonesia
Just hours prior to the ruling in Kenya, Indonesia's Ministry of Communications and Digital (Komdigi) announced the suspension of Worldcoin's registration.
Officials pointed to suspicious activities and the engagement of unauthorized legal entities in digital services, despite intentions to incorporate Circle's USDC and CCTP V2.
Following the decisions made in both Kenya and Indonesia, the value of the Worldcoin token (WLD) experienced a decline of over 6% within a 24-hour period.
At the time of this report, the $WLD was trading at $0.8816 after reaching a peak of $0.9627 in the preceding 24 hours.
Furthermore, the open interest for WLD decreased by 5.15%, bringing it down to $219.42 million.
Komdigi indicated that the Worldcoin-affiliated company, PT Terang Bulan Abadi, was operating without a legitimate Electronic System Operator Certificate.
Additionally, it was discovered that another local partner, PT Sandina Abadi Nusantara, was reportedly involved in legal misrepresentation. According to Komdigi,
“Noncompliance with registration obligations and the use of the identity of another legal entity… is a serious violation.”
The ministry has announced that it will convene both local organizations for further clarification and has urged citizens to report any unregistered digital service providers.
Alexander Sabar, the director general for digital supervision, stated, 'We encourage the public to assist in ensuring a secure and reliable digital environment for all citizens.'
