Class 2 USD stablecoin issuers must have minimum paid-up capital of approximately ₦15 billion.
Effective around 11-05, the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) requires: Class 2 (foreign currency/USD-pegged): ₦15 billion; Class 1 (naira-pegged): ₦10 billion; other non-securities VASPs: at least ₦1 billion.
Reserves must be ≥100%, plus an approximately 2% buffer; eligible reserves must be received before minting.
The CBN oversees stablecoin payments/remittances/foreign exchange/settlement, while the SEC oversees securities trading; capital cannot be counted twice.
Taking effect ≠ already licensed; meeting the capital threshold ≠ stablecoins already being issued to retail users.
