Interstellar and Cowrie Announce Partnership on Naira-Crypto Decentralized Exchange.



Fintech Ltd (creators of the popular Interstellar wallet and decentralized exchange), and Cowrie Integrated Systems Limited (a Nigerian based fiat to crypto gateway), today announce a new streamlined Naira to Crypto trading experience.
Cowrie Integrated Systems Limited is an NCC (Nigerian Communications Commission) licensed VAS (Value Added Service) provider. Cowrie launched NGNT earlier in the first quarter of 2018 as an asset backed digital token built on the Stellar decentralized exchange. The NGNT Stellar token is pegged to the Nigerian Naira (NGN) on a 1:1 ratio and it digitizes the Naira giving it the benefits of a decentralized token and traditional fiat.
                               
Fintech Limited launched Interstellar in the last quarter of 2017 as a one-stop secure crypto wallet and decentralized exchange. Amongst other features, Interstellar enabled users to securely deposit, withdraw and trade Bitcoin, Stellar Lumens, Litecoin, Ethereum and Ripple. The Naira backed NGNT token, from Cowrie, is the first fiat gateway integrated directly into the Interstellar wallet and decentralized exchange. Nigerians now have an easy to use user experience to buy and sell cryptocurrencies in exchange for Naira instantly, straight to and from one’s bank account.



In recent years, Nigerian youth have embraced the growing world of crypto, despite the Nigerian government’s hesitation to fully embrace cryptocurrencies. According to multiple sources, Nigerian youths are trading more than 4.8 Million US Dollars in bitcoin every week! To encourage even more Nigerian youths to participate in the blockchain revolution, Fintech LTD has performed stellar lumen airdrops to hundreds Nigerian teens.
