Busha, SEC partner to launch crypto course for financial leaders
- Nigeria's SEC has issued provisional crypto licenses to startups Quidax and Busha as part of a sandbox program.
- A new cryptocurrency course, 'Digital Assets Innovation, Industry, Regulation and Compliance (DAIIRC),' is being launched in partnership with the University of Cambridge.
- The course aims to educate regulators, policymakers, and financial executives on digital assets and their regulatory landscape.
The collaboration between the SEC and educational institutions represents a significant step towards fostering a more structured approach to cryptocurrency regulation in Nigeria. However, the ongoing challenges with licensing and banking relations indicate that a comprehensive regulatory framework is still needed to fully integrate digital assets into the financial system.
