As a Nigerian citizen we gotta keep the ground running as imposed by our govt, well my ears has been on the ground since then for latest update concerning binance p2p ban in Nigeria, a few of my crypto folks have suggested other alternatives like okx, bybit , bitget etc. I signed up on the trio to explore their features, the latter is giving out some BGB rewards just by completing your very first P2P buy order. For a start it seems cool yeah.
After trying out those three exchanges, I think I’ll go with the latter cex for the following reasons.
First off, their appeal time is super quick compared to Bybit exchange, they understand that time is precious, and make it a point to resolve any issues within just few hours. Bybit can literally keep you waiting for more than 24 hours and am talking from experience. I mistakenly did a transfer twice to one of their p2p merchant which took forever to be resolved.
Now back to comparison, bitget selling and buying prices are among the best in the market imho, they seem to always be on their toes as other competitors are in the market.
In terms of safety I’ll still pick them because after sending excess funds to bybit p2p merchant, he outrightly blocked me and stopped picking my calls.. when a merchant on bitget p2p delayed in sending funds after estimated time has elapsed, I filed an appeal and their CS released my funds to me in less than 1hr after asking me for video proof and all that .
But it's not just about features and functionality, the exchange p2p Authentication is a breeze. We just need to input our fund code to release the funds. No need to go through the hassle of using Google Authenticator or waiting for email code verification like on some other platforms like binance exchange.
Talking about those merchants demeanor on the cex, I've personally interacted with many of them, and they're fast. They complete the payment in just 2 to 3 minutes, which is way quicker than what I've experienced on other platforms. Plus, they're humble and helpful, which makes the whole process so much smoother.
No gree for anybody, when one door shut we stomp the other door, the govt cannot control everything. Don’t give up on crypto because of this and rather look for an alternative which I stated above ..
Op within the little time that Binance p2p has stopped working, you have already had problem with Marchants in two exchanges? Is this your personal experience or you are using someone's experience to market bitget exchange? My advice to you is that you should stick to one exchange and stop submitting your information to different exchanges in the name of KYC. You know how bad it is to submit your information in different platforms. If there is information breach you won't know where it's coming from because you have submitted it to different platforms. Let's not take because of bonuses that these exchanges are offering and harm ourselves let's be careful.
