How to sell Bitcoin (BTC) for naira in Nigeria (2026)

Send BTC on the Bitcoin network to your own VinX address, see the naira rate first, and get paid to the bank account saved on your account.

The short answer: open VinX on Telegram, tap Sell Crypto, pick BTC, and send it on the Bitcoin network to your own VinX deposit address. You see the naira rate before you send, and once your deposit confirms, the naira lands in your VinX wallet, ready for the bank account saved on your account.

What you need

  • Telegram on your phone or computer, to open VinX.
  • BTC in a wallet or exchange account you control.
  • A Nigerian bank account in your own name, saved on your VinX account, to receive your naira.
  • The minimum is 0.00005 BTC.

Step 1: pick BTC and your network

VinX takes BTC on the Bitcoin network itself. If you are sending from an exchange, choose Bitcoin (BTC) as the withdrawal network, not BEP20, Lightning or any wrapped version of Bitcoin, because those may not arrive.

Step 2: check your rate

VinX shows today's naira rate for BTC before you send anything, so you know roughly what you will get. The naira value of BTC is set at the VinX price when your deposit confirms. If the Bitcoin price moves while your deposit is confirming, your final amount can differ a little from what you saw.

Step 3: send to your VinX address

VinX gives you your own BTC deposit address. It belongs to your account and stays the same, so you can use it every time you sell. Copy it, paste it into your wallet or exchange, and check that the first and last few characters match before you confirm. Send only BTC, on the network you picked.

Step 4: get paid in naira

When your deposit confirms, its naira value lands in your VinX wallet. From there you can withdraw to the bank account saved on your account, with no fee. Or turn on autopay, and every credit is sent to the bank account saved on your account automatically. An autopay transfer carries a ₦53.75 bank transfer fee.

Fees

VinX charges no fee on your BTC deposit. Your wallet or exchange may charge its own network fee to send, so check it before you confirm. Withdrawing your naira yourself, to the bank account saved on your account, is free. Autopay transfers carry a ₦53.75 bank transfer fee.

Mistakes to avoid

  • Sending on a different network from the one you picked in VinX. Coins sent on the wrong network may not arrive, and they can be hard or impossible to recover.
  • Typing the address by hand instead of copying it.
  • Sending a different coin to your BTC address.
  • Sending less than the minimum for your network.

If anything looks wrong, stop and message Support on Telegram before you send again.

Questions

How long does it take to get paid for BTC?

You are credited once your deposit is confirmed on its network. VinX messages you when it sees your deposit, and again when the naira is in your wallet. Confirmation time depends on the network and how busy it is.

Is there a minimum BTC amount?

The minimum is 0.00005 BTC.

Do I need to sign up on a website?

No. Open VinX on Telegram and start. Your account, wallet and history stay the same wherever you use VinX.

Why can Bitcoin take longer than other coins?

Bitcoin blocks come roughly every ten minutes, and a deposit needs network confirmation before it is credited. When the network is busy, it can take longer. Your wallet may let you pay a higher fee to confirm faster.

Can I sell a small amount of Bitcoin?

Yes, from 0.00005 BTC. For very small amounts, check that the network fee your wallet charges is worth it.
