Nigerian Naira on U.CASH

The Nigerian naira is the largest economy in West Africa's currency, and on U.CASH its on-chain leg is first-class: cNGN, the naira stablecoin issued under Nigeria's 2025 stablecoin framework.

Rails settle it at checkout; pegged tokens settle it on-chain. Both live on the same non-custodial U.CASH checkout.
