Tap Swap, a widely used cryptocurrency exchange, has reportedly blocked or banned Nigerian users from accessing its platform, causing significant controversy and outrage among those affected.
Numerous social media posts from frustrated users indicate that the Tap Swap website fails to load or process transactions when accessed from Nigerian internet connections.
One user, @AuthorHeaven_EW, tweeted, “It appears that the popular crypto exchange Tap Swap has made the controversial decision to block users from Nigeria.”
Other users have also voiced their inability to access their Tap Swap accounts. @bagboylammy noted, “If you can’t access your Tap Swap, it’s because they’ve removed Nigeria from their airdrop list.” Similarly, @rutie_xx simply stated, “Tap Swap has cancelled Nigeria.”
The reasons behind Tap Swap’s decision to block Nigerian users remain unclear. This unexpected move has left many Nigerian users unable to access their accounts or conduct transactions, highlighting the ongoing challenges and uncertainties in the cryptocurrency space.
As the situation develops, affected users are actively seeking explanations and solutions, hoping to regain access to their accounts and continue their participation in the cryptocurrency market.
