Binance prohibits users with Nigerian IP addresses from participating in its airdrop activities
ChainCatcher news, according to DL News, Binance has banned users with Nigerian IP addresses from participating in its airdrop activities. Nigerian cryptocurrency users have reported that they are unable to access Binance's Web3 task platform, which previously allowed users to earn free cryptocurrency by completing simple social tasks, due to the ongoing dispute between the government and Binance.
Binance has over 380,000 active users in Nigeria. This is the latest restriction following last year's ban on Nigerian users from accessing the peer-to-peer trading platform and the removal of the digital version of the Nigerian Naira. These restrictions stem from a legal dispute between Binance and the Nigerian government, which accuses Binance of causing the depreciation of the Naira.
