According to the Bank, “it cannot afford to flout the rules laid down by the Central Bank of Nigeria concerning cryptocurrency transactions. Disobedience to the rules may eventually lead to a revoked license.
However, the bank states that in cases of obvious fraud, it will report the client to the appropriate authorities (as the law stipulates) and close said client’s account so that the client will not defraud more people with that account.
The “bank of the free” ended the statement by appealing to customers not to engage in cryptocurrency transactions with their Kuda accounts, because any account found guilty will be closed.
