Patricia Relocates Headquarters to Europe

Three years old Nigerian Blockchain startup, Patricia has announced it is done with Nigeria and will be moving its headquarters to the Northern European country of Estonia.

The startup is an alternative payment and e-commerce startup that facilitates the use of digital currencies like Bitcoin, and other digital assets for everyday transactions. The platform uses its collaborative approach to respond quickly to the needs of its users.

Patricia offers buying, selling, ability to store, spend (Patricia Bitcoin debit card) and swap cryptocurrencies, and Patricia Refill services (everyday activities like purchasing airtime, subscription services with crypto).

CEO and Founder, Hanu Fejiro Agbodje speaking via his Linkedin handle said that the startup has been able to dominate the Bitcoin market for the past 3years of its existence.

“Looking at how we have managed to dominate the Bitcoin market in our 3 years of existence”
