You probably witnessed the spike in Dollar exchange against Naira a few days ago, when Naira went from ₦620/$1 to ₦710/$1, and it’s still increasing. Well, what else do you expect when the Nigerian economy has continued to dwindle?

Instead of saving your Naira in the bank and watching it decline even when you’re not using it, you should take advantage of the economic failure by buying some USDT or dollars with it.

For example, let’s say you had ₦100,000 in your bank account a few days ago. The value of that hundred thousand Naira should have dropped by a couple of thousand Naira and some change within this short period.

Nevertheless, you can easily invest your Naira in Dollars, so your money will gain value as the Dollar gains value. This relates to Dollar Arbitrage, and it is probably what everybody wants, including you.

2 Best Ways To Buy Dollars or USDT 

  1. Buying dollars from the local black market (Aboki)
  2. Buying USDT on Binance

1. Buying dollars from the local black market

The first method is to buy dollars directly from the black market, fondly addressed as “Aboki” in Nigeria.

Buying dollars from the black market guys is pretty straightforward, and anybody can do this, including you. 

For example, I bought 200 dollars from the black market a few months ago when it was at ₦550 per Dollar. Now, a dollar is seven hundred and something, and you can imagine the profit, especially if you had bought more.

How to save your dollars in cash in Nigeria

If you have some dollars as cash, you can either save it by:

  • Keeping it in your house
  • Or save it in your dollar domiciliary account 

I strongly recommend saving your dollars in your domiciliary account when you have it as cash. This method is safer, and you can withdraw it at any time.

2. Buying USDT using Binance 

Apart from buying your dollars from the aboki or black market, the second way to buy your dollars with naira is by buying USDT.

If you’re into crypto, you should already know how to go about this. However, if you haven’t done anything crypto before, I don’t want you to fret a second because I’ll give you a straightforward explanation about all you need to know to get started.

First, USDT is also called Tether, and it’s a stable coin. It’s the type of cryptocurrency that pursues a steady valuation. Now, this means that it always has the current value of a dollar.

Simply put, think of it as 1 USDT is always equal to 1 US dollar, the same with BUSD. So, you don’t have to worry about anything.

For example, if you buy 10 USDT, you’ve got 10 US dollars in your account. And as the dollar rate is increasing, your USDT will continue to spike. And then, you can easily sell your USDT whenever you want and take the profit from it.

Another amazing is that the process of buying your USDT is super simple on Binance. You only have to create an account with Binance, if you don’t have an account already, and then buy from Pay 2 Pay.

How P2P works on Binance

Now, I mentioned that you’ll buy your USDT through P2P, right? So it is just a method of buying USDT with your local currency without using your card. For example, you can buy USDT with Naira without using your card.

Of course, the Buhari government banned Nigerians from buying cryptos with their cards. So, please don’t use your Naira card to purchase USDT on any crypto platform.

With the P2P, you only have to go to the Binance P2P page and see many Nigerians who want to sell their USDT and also see the amount they are selling it. You’ll then transfer your Naira to their Nigerian bank account (displayed by Binance), and they’ll release the USDT in a few minutes after confirming your successful transaction.

I’ve created a straightforward guide on how you can create your Binance account and how you can buy USDT with Naira or any local currency in real-time. It’s super handy for beginners.
