Crypto in Rwanda

National Bank of Rwanda consumer-protection material says cryptocurrency business is not regulated by the NBR or Capital Market Authority and advises people to avoid scammers hiding behind cryptocurrencies. The East African Community regional payment-systems masterplan describes Rwanda as having no specific virtual-asset regulation, while noting public cautions from the central bank. These sources do not verify a platform or authorise an activity: confirm current status with the regulator before acting.
