Blockchain pioneer, Roqqu, partners with SiBAN to reinforce Nigeria's digital ledger technology sector
Roqqu, a digital finance and blockchain solutions provider, has taken a significant step towards strengthening the Nigerian blockchain ecosystem by joining the Stakeholders in Blockchain Technology Association of Nigeria (SiBAN) as a Global Corporate Member.
The move represents a strategic partnership aimed at accelerating blockchain adoption, fostering innovation, and strengthening the credibility and transparency of Nigeria’s digital asset ecosystem. This collaboration brings together industry expertise and advocacy efforts to promote responsible blockchain use, user protection, and ethical standards in the Nigerian blockchain space.
Roqqu’s commitment to SiBAN signifies a shared vision of fostering responsible innovation, promoting operational best practices, and protecting users. As a Global Corporate Member, Roqqu will participate in industry dialogues, capacity-building programs, and policy engagements coordinated by SiBAN.
The key impacts of this membership and partnership include driving blockchain adoption and innovation, educational and capacity building initiatives, engagement with regulators and policymakers, promoting financial inclusion, and building a credible and sustainable ecosystem.
Combining Roqqu’s digital finance solutions and SiBAN’s advocacy is expected to lead to faster, more responsible blockchain and digital finance growth in Nigeria. Co-hosting educational events and launching training programs for developers and the public will expand blockchain understanding and skills.
Working closely with government stakeholders will shape regulations that foster a compliant and robust blockchain environment in Nigeria. Using blockchain as a tool to bridge socioeconomic divides by improving access to digital financial services, especially in underserved communities across Nigeria, is another significant impact.
Establishing frameworks, trust, transparency, and ethical standards will make blockchain technology trusted and beneficial for all Nigerians. Roqqu’s membership in SiBAN strengthens collective efforts to position blockchain as a key driver of economic growth and financial inclusion in Nigeria while ensuring the technology’s adoption is responsible and well-regulated.
Roqqu’s expansion into European markets positions it among the few African-born fintech and blockchain companies with a truly international reach, bridging markets between Africa and Europe. The company has also made significant strides into the European market, securing a virtual currency license to operate in compliance with financial regulations across the European Economic Area (EEA).
This license gives Roqqu the legal capacity to provide crypto services to customers in approximately 28 to 30 European countries. The strategic move by Roqqu aligns with the growing trend of African tech companies exporting their innovations to the global stage.
SiBAN looks forward to Roqqu’s contributions to the growth of the blockchain ecosystem. Membership in SiBAN does not constitute licensing or regulatory approval but represents a shared commitment to foster responsible innovation, encourage compliance, align with the association’s ethical code, principles of transparency, and mission to advance the growth of a trusted blockchain industry.
Roqqu aims to make crypto practical and accessible not just in Nigeria or across Africa, but globally. The company looks forward to contributing to initiatives that promote blockchain education, foster informed adoption, and encourage constructive engagement with policymakers to help strengthen Nigeria's blockchain ecosystem.
The inclusion of Roqqu in SiBAN adds diversity and depth to the association’s mission of fostering ethical standards, consumer protection, and sustainable blockchain adoption. Roqqu’s presence in both African and European markets brings valuable perspectives to SiBAN’s international engagement efforts.
Overall, the strategic move by Roqqu and its membership in SiBAN signifies a commitment to building a credible, transparent, and innovative blockchain ecosystem in partnership with members, regulators, and stakeholders.
