Nigerian President Tinubu has officially signed the Investment and Securities Act (ISA) 2025, recognizing Bitcoin and other digital assets as securities under the Nigerian SEC's oversight. This landmark law modernizes Nigeria’s capital market regulations, providing clarity and fostering innovation while enhancing investor protection and combating fraud in the crypto space. It marks a pivotal shift from previous regulatory uncertainty, opening new opportunities for local and foreign investments in Nigeria’s growing digital asset market. While this classification presents compliance challenges, it is a crucial step toward positioning Nigeria as a competitive fintech hub in Africa.
