These issues are common, but the good news is they\u2019re all avoidable. By learning the different ways to sell and the trade-offs involved, you can make a more informed decision.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This guide shows you how to sell Bitcoin for Naira using three methods. We compare them side by side to help you decide which one best fits your situation.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Sell_Bitcoin_Using_an_Over-the-Counter_Platform\"><\/span><b>1. Sell Bitcoin Using an Over-the-Counter Platform<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Over-the-counter (OTC) refers to the buying and selling of assets between two parties rather than on a public exchange. In this case, you sell Bitcoin directly to the platform, not to individual buyers on an exchange.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Think about selling an old phone to a gadget store. The store offers you a price, and once you accept, you get paid. That&#8217;s how OTC platforms work. They offer a quoted rate, and once you accept it, the transaction proceeds immediately.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Prestmit is a prime example of an OTC crypto platform. Here, you can <a href=\"https:\/\/prestmit.io\/bitcoins\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">sell Bitcoin<\/a> with multiple payout methods and fast withdrawals. Moreover, you can confirm your expected payout by checking the live <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/prestmit.io\/bitcoin-price-naira\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">rate calculator<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to avoid any surprises. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There is no endless waiting, middleman, negotiation, or back and forth.

Below are the ways you can avoid the most common scams targeting Bitcoin sellers.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Never_Release_Bitcoin_Without_Confirming_Your_Balance\"><\/span><b>1. Never Release Bitcoin Without Confirming Your Balance<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Buyers can send convincing screenshots showing a successful transfer, but the money never reaches your account.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Never send your BTC to anyone until your balance reflects the credit. Scammers can fake SMS alerts, and even your transaction history may reflect the fake payment. Always wait till your balance updates. Contact your bank if the balance doesn&#8217;t reflect on time. They can confirm if there was any transaction at all.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Only_Trade_With_Verified_Highly-Rated_Buyers\"><\/span><b>2. Only Trade With Verified, Highly-Rated Buyers<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In this case, you received payment and released your Bitcoin; then the buyer disputes or attempts to reverse it, claiming it was unauthorized or made in error. If the bank upholds the claim, you could lose both your Bitcoin and the payment.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Check the buyer&#8217;s platform rating, completed trade count, and verification badge before accepting a trade. If you suspect fraud or a chargeback attempt, report it to the platform and your bank immediately. Keep all trade records, chat history, and payment evidence in case they&#8217;re needed during an investigation.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Avoid_Direct_Buyer_Payments_Where_Possible\"><\/span><b>3. Avoid Direct Buyer Payments Where Possible<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you receive Naira from a P2P buyer whose funds came from illegal activity, Nigeria&#8217;s financial watchdog, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), can freeze your account during the investigation, even if you are innocent. Freezes can last weeks or months.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Use platforms that buy from you directly, like Prestmit, where you don&#8217;t have to deal directly with individual buyers.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Confirm_All_Payments_Before_Releasing_BTC_in_Multiple_Orders\"><\/span><b>4. Confirm All Payments Before Releasing BTC in Multiple Orders<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In this case, two scammers work together. They will both open P2P orders for the same amount. For example, scammer A and scammer B both want \u20a6500,000 worth of Bitcoin. When you receive a \u20a6500,000 payment alert, it\u2019s easy to release it to the wrong person, so you end up owing the other person.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Make sure you have received both payments before releasing your Bitcoin. If both have confirmed payment, request receipts from each buyer. Both scammers may have edited the receipt (especially the sender&#8217;s name or payment reference). Match the sender&#8217;s name on each receipt with the buyer&#8217;s name on the trade and your bank credit alert. If anything doesn&#8217;t match, raise a dispute immediately and do not release your Bitcoin.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Always_Verify_a_Platform_Before_You_Sign_Up_or_Log_In\"><\/span><b>5. Always Verify a Platform Before You Sign Up or Log In<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Look-alike websites mimic legitimate platforms to steal your login credentials or <a href=\"https:\/\/prestmit.io\/blog\/what-you-need-to-know-about-bitcoin-wallet\">Bitcoin wallet<\/a> details. They can appear in search results, on social media, and through WhatsApp\/Telegram promotions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Always download apps from official app stores and verify the URL, but be careful. For example, r and n together (rn) look like m, and some scammers can take advantage of that. Also, check the said platforms&#8217; SEC registration or regulatory status.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Safety_Checklist_Before_Selling_Bitcoin\"><\/span><b>Safety Checklist Before Selling Bitcoin<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-checked=\"false\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Verify that your balance reflects the transaction.

Unlike P2P trading, which can involve fake payment risks and long wait times, Prestmit keeps things simple. Simply send your Bitcoin to Prestmit. It converts at the current rate, and you can withdraw the Naira to your local bank account.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Want to sell other cryptocurrencies besides Bitcoin? Prestmit supports selling ETH, USDT, USDC, LTC, DOGE, TRON, and BNB. The <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">rates calculator<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> lets you see your crypto&#8217;s value in Naira or Cedis before you sell.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you would like to move large amounts, Prestmit&#8217;s OTC desk exists specifically for that. Prices can shift mid-transaction, which is normal in the crypto world. But what Prestmit does differently is ensure that the rate you agreed on before the transaction is the same amount you receive once processing completes, protecting you from loss due to market shifts.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Every crypto trader should be security-conscious, and that is why Prestmit prioritises security for every transaction. Biometric verification and two-factor authentication (2FA) protect your account at login and during every transaction. And whenever you need help, the customer support team is available to assist you.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Frequently_Asked_Questions_About_Selling_Bitcoin_for_Naira\"><\/span><b>Frequently Asked Questions About Selling Bitcoin for Naira<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_What_is_the_best_app_to_sell_Bitcoin_for_Naira_in_Nigeria\"><\/span><b>1.
