About NGN
The Nigerian naira (NGN) is the official currency of Nigeria, issued by the Central Bank of Nigeria and used every day by more than 200 million people across Africa’s largest economy. It is the unit that salaries, rent, school fees and market trade are priced in, and the currency Nigerian bank accounts and mobile money wallets are denominated in. Nigeria is also one of the most active stablecoin markets in the world: reaching US dollars through traditional channels can be slow and costly, so many Nigerians keep part of their savings in dollar-denominated stablecoins and convert back to naira when they need to spend. On moove.xyz you can turn naira into stablecoins and major cryptocurrencies, and turn crypto back into naira paid out to a Nigerian bank account or mobile money wallet, with the crypto side held in a self-custody wallet whose keys only you hold.
About BTC
BTC on moove.xyz is Wrapped Bitcoin (WBTC) on Ethereum, not native bitcoin on the Bitcoin network. Each WBTC is backed one-for-one by bitcoin held in custody, so it tracks the bitcoin price while living on Ethereum — which is exactly what lets it swap and bridge in seconds alongside every other ERC-20 token. If you want BTC exposure that moves at Ethereum speed and plugs into on-chain applications, this is the form that does it; if you need bitcoin on its own chain, withdraw and unwrap it.
Frequently Asked Questions
How can I convert NGN to BTC?
Converting NGN to BTC is currently available in the Moove mobile app, so you will need to download Moove for iOS or Android to complete it. Once the app is installed, open the Ramp tab, choose NGN as what you are paying with and BTC as what you want to receive, then enter an amount to see a live quote before you confirm. This page lets you preview the NGN to BTC rate on the web, but the conversion itself is finished in the app. Because a licensed payment partner handles the fiat leg, you will complete a one-time identity verification the first time you move between fiat and crypto.
What wallets can I use to convert NGN to BTC?
The crypto leg of your NGN to BTC conversion settles into your Moove Wallet, a self-custody wallet the app creates for you — you do not need an exchange account to hold it. Because the wallet is non-custodial, the private keys stay on your device and moove.xyz never takes custody of your funds. From there you can move the crypto on to any other wallet you already use, including MetaMask, Phantom, Solflare, Trust Wallet, Backpack or any address across 30+ supported chains. So converting NGN to BTC fits whatever wallet setup you have today, whether that is Moove Wallet on its own or Moove Wallet plus an external wallet you withdraw to.
What fiat accounts can I use to convert NGN to BTC?
You can convert NGN to BTC using a Nigerian naira bank account or mobile money wallet held in your own name. Supported institutions currently include Moniepoint, OPay, Palmpay, Standard Chartered and more, and the full list is shown in the app when you add a funding or payout account. The account holder name has to match your verified Moove profile, because the licensed payment partner handling the naira leg is required to check it before releasing funds. Accounts belonging to someone else cannot be used for a NGN to BTC conversion.
Where does my BTC settle after converting?
When you convert NGN to BTC, the BTC lands in your Moove Wallet — the self-custody wallet inside the Moove app that only you hold the keys to. If BTC is a cryptocurrency it shows up in your wallet balance as soon as the conversion clears, ready to hold, send or swap. If BTC is naira, it is paid out to the Nigerian bank account or mobile money wallet linked to your Moove profile, usually the same account you funded from. You never have to open an exchange account or leave the proceeds of a NGN to BTC conversion sitting with a third party.
What are the fees for converting NGN to BTC?
Converting NGN to BTC costs a flat 0.10% of the transaction value on moove.xyz, quoted upfront before you confirm. On top of that you pay the network gas fee charged by the blockchain the crypto leg settles on, and your bank or mobile money provider may apply its own transfer charge on the naira side. There are no subscription fees, no deposit fees and no hidden spread added to the NGN to BTC rate you are shown. The quote in the app always displays the exact amount of BTC you will receive before you approve the conversion.
How long does it take to convert NGN to BTC?
Most NGN to BTC conversions settle within a few minutes. Buying crypto with naira typically takes around two to three minutes once your bank or mobile money transfer is confirmed, while selling crypto for naira is usually faster and often completes in well under a minute. The app shows a live estimated settlement time alongside every quote, so you always see the current figure for your NGN to BTC conversion before you confirm. Actual timing can vary with bank processing hours, blockchain network congestion and the size of the transfer.
