About
Ethereum (ETH)

Ethereum is a blockchain platform designed to build decentralized applications (dApps) using smart contracts. Ether (ETH), its native cryptocurrency, is the second largest crypto by market cap. It’s used to pay for transaction fees (gas), run dApps, and execute smart contracts. Ether also plays a key role in decentralized finance (DeFi), staking, NFTs, and decentralized exchanges.

Frequently asked questions

  • What is the most common method for buying Ethereum (ETH) with the Nigerian Naira (NGN)?

    Due to local banking regulations, the most prevalent method is using peer-to-peer (P2P) marketplaces on major cryptocurrency exchanges. These platforms act as a secure fiat on-ramp by connecting buyers and sellers directly. They use an escrow system to hold the ETH until the NGN bank transfer is confirmed, ensuring a secure transaction for both parties after KYC/AML compliance is met.
  • Why is the NGN/ETH trading pair a crucial gateway to decentralized applications (dApps)?

    The NGN/ETH pair provides a direct fiat gateway into the vast Ethereum ecosystem. ETH is the native digital asset required to pay for transaction costs, known as gas fees (measured in Gwei), which are essential for executing smart contracts and interacting with thousands of dApps, from DeFi protocols to NFT marketplaces, built on the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM).
  • What types of fees are involved in converting Nigerian Naira to ETH?

    When converting NGN to ETH, you'll typically encounter two main fees. First, the P2P platform or exchange may charge a small trading fee, often built into the exchange rate on the order book. Second, and more importantly, when you move your ETH from the exchange to a personal digital wallet, you must pay an Ethereum network gas fee for the blockchain transaction, which fluctuates based on network congestion.
  • How do directives from the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) impact NGN to ETH purchases?

    Directives from the CBN have historically restricted financial institutions from facilitating cryptocurrency transactions directly. This has made P2P trading platforms the primary method for NGN to ETH conversions. Users transact directly via bank transfers for non-crypto related descriptions, making these platforms a vital bridge while navigating the local regulatory landscape.
  • What are the key security measures for P2P trading of NGN for ETH?

    For secure trading, always use a reputable P2P platform that offers a reliable escrow service. Never release your ETH from escrow until you have personally verified the receipt of the full NGN payment in your bank account. Always check the counterparty's trade history and user rating, communicate only within the platform's chat, and secure your exchange account with two-factor authentication (2FA).
