🚫 Ethiopia Bans Crypto Trading — Birr Only Allowed 🇪🇹


Ethiopia has officially prohibited the trading of virtual currencies, mandating the Ethiopian birr as the sole legal tender for all transactions.


But it’s not a full rejection of crypto...


⚙️ Behind the scenes:

– Authorities are drafting crypto regulations

– Experts are being trained to monitor illicit crypto activity

– Support is coming from the UN, Russia, and regional partners


🔍 Ethiopia seems to be clamping down first, but building capacity quietly — a familiar pattern in emerging markets navigating digital assets.


💡 Ban now, regulate later?


👇 What’s your take — is Ethiopia prepping for a controlled crypto rollout, or is this a dead-end for adoption?
