On Bybit, naira trades go through its P2P marketplace, which means finding a merchant and waiting for their payment. Pyker skips the counterparty: send to your own address and get paid automatically.
Many Nigerians moved to Bybit P2P after Binance dropped naira.
Public reporting, checked October 2026Bybit is an international exchange. After Binance discontinued naira in 2024, many Nigerians turned to Bybit's P2P marketplace, where you sell to individual merchants who pay you by bank transfer.
P2P can work, but every trade depends on someone else: you wait for an order, wait for their transfer, and have to confirm the money really arrived before releasing your crypto.
