Bitcoin, a popular cryptocurrency, is now available in Kenya through various platforms. One such platform is bits.africa, which is the first Cryptocurrency exchange in East and Central Africa.

On June 25, 2021, TechMoran published a guide on how to buy Bitcoin in Kenya, highlighting the steps to follow on bits.africa.

According to the guide, to buy Bitcoin using bits.africa, one needs to go to the platform, click the ‘get started’ button, and register by entering personal details. After registration, one can login as a customer and deposit money via M-Pesa or bank transfer.

Once the money is reflected on the account, one can make a Bitcoin purchase. The supported assets/cryptos are represented on the platform.

However, there are other platforms like Paxful and Localbitcoins that allow people to buy and sell Bitcoin directly from other people, with the risk of dealing with con artists.

It is essential to note that these platforms are not liable for any losses incurred in transactions.

For a personal experience of this game-changing Crypto platform, kindly visit bits.africa.
