African fintech provider SFx Money App officially relaunched its personal Naira Account feature and integrated Tether (USDT) support on the TRON (TRC20) blockchain network on October\u00a02.<\/p>\n
The dual update marks a strategic move to bridge local African banking rails with digital asset infrastructure, aiming to provide a single interface for fiat deposits, local settlements, and cross-border stablecoin transactions.<\/p>\n
SFx originally launched<\/a> personal naira accounts issued in users\u2019 names in June 2026. However, the platform temporarily pulled the feature to carry out internal upgrades.<\/p>\n The primary upgrade gives eligible SFx users dedicated personal Naira account numbers. This enables them to receive direct local NGN bank transfers straight to their SFx account. Alongside this feature, SFx also integrated the TRON network<\/a> for USDT, expanding an existing multichain setup that already includes Polygon, Solana, Arbitrum, Base, Avalanche and Optimism.<\/p>\n The relaunch also follows a long outage after services on the platform were disrupted<\/a> between April 1 and May 20, following damage to AWS infrastructure in\u00a0Bahrain.<\/p>\n Nigeria is Africa\u2019s largest crypto market, and stablecoins make up a significant share of its\u00a0volume.<\/p>\n Chainalysis\u2019s recent crypto adoption index ranked Nigeria at number 3 globally for grassroots crypto adoption. Nigeria also ranked number 1 for cross-border flows<\/a>. Between July 2024 and June 2025, Nigeria recorded over $92 billion in on-chain crypto transactions.<\/p>\n The IMF reports<\/a> that Nigeria has accounted for an estimated 60% of all stablecoin inflows to sub-Saharan Africa since 2019. According to Yellowcard, stablecoins account for 43% of total crypto transaction volume in Sub-Saharan Africa. Between July 2023 and June 2024, Nigeria alone processed almost $22 billion in stablecoin transfers, and USDT remains the dominant stablecoin in the country\u2019s market.<\/p>\n Globally, the Tron (TRC20) network processed roughly $2 trillion in USDT transactions in the first quarter of 2026, second only to Ethereum\u2019s $2.2 trillion. Meanwhile, TRON now holds more USDT than any other blockchain.<\/p>\n SFx describes<\/a> the introduction of local naira accounts and TRC20 USDT settlements as \u201cbuilding for the reality of how Africans actually move money<\/em>,\u201d which it says now occurs across borders, currencies, and often between traditional finance and digital\u00a0assets.<\/p>\n It also says it responded to customers\u2019 requests to make the experience more seamless. \u201cOur users have been asking us to make these experiences easier, and we\u2019ve been listening. Whether you\u2019re a Nigerian receiving local payments, a student managing money across countries, or a crypto user who needs access to USDT on TRC20, you should not have to juggle multiple platforms just to manage your own\u00a0money.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n Earlier this year, SFx reported processing over $6.5 million in on-chain transaction volume<\/a> with Nigeria, the continent\u2019s largest crypto and stablecoin market, accounting for 60% of that volume. This upgrade now provides a smoother way for its largest customer base to move stablecoin through a widely used\u00a0network.<\/p>\n In a market where digital dollars have become essential for capital preservation and international settlement, unifying Naira accounts with Sub-Saharan Africa\u2019s dominant stablecoin network directly mirrors real-world user behaviour.<\/p>\n It also positions SFx as a single, comprehensive financial gateway for the region\u2019s booming digital\u00a0economy.<\/p>\n Originally published at <\/em>https:\/\/cryptoafrica.news<\/em><\/a> on October 5,\u00a02026.<\/em><\/p>\n SFx Money App Relaunches Naira Accounts and Integrates TRON TRC20 Network to Tap Africa\u2019s\u2026<\/a> was originally published in Coinmonks<\/a> on Medium, where people are continuing the conversation by highlighting and responding to this story.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" SFx Money App Relaunches Naira Accounts and Integrates TRON TRC20 Network to Tap Africa\u2019s Stablecoin Boom\u2014 Crypto\u00a0Africa SFx Money App officially restored dedicated personal Naira bank account numbers and added TRON (TRC20) USDT support on October\u00a02.Nigeria, Africa\u2019s largest crypto market, generated over $92B in on-chain volume and commands 60% of Sub-Saharan Africa\u2019s stablecoin inflows.Unifying local […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":235812,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-235811","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-interesting"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mycryptomania.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/235811"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mycryptomania.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mycryptomania.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mycryptomania.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=235811"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/mycryptomania.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/235811\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mycryptomania.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/235812"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mycryptomania.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=235811"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mycryptomania.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=235811"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mycryptomania.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=235811"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}Why Sfx\u2019s Move May Be A Smart\u00a0Move<\/h3>\n
