John Kiff on 31 Aug 21The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) is partnering with Bitt to roll out its eNaira central bank digital currency (CBDC) later this year. Project Giant, as the Nigerian CBDC pilot is known, has been a long and thorough process for the CBN, that started with the Bank's decision to digitize the Naira in 2017. Bitt was previously key to the development and launch of the CBDC pilot of the Eastern Caribbean Central Bank (ECCB) in April 2021. https://www.cbn.gov.ng/Out/2021/CCD/CBN%20Press%20Release%20(CBDC)%2030082021.pdf
