## How Codex FX works

After a live quote, wire USD to the receiving account. USDT is delivered to your designated wallet on Ethereum, Solana, Tron, Polygon, or Base. Lagos P2P trading runs round the clock, so Codex matches that cadence on every settlement.

Most transactions complete in under 30 minutes, and the service operates around the clock, including weekends and holidays.

2. 02 · Settlement

## USD to USDT settlement in Nigeria

Nigeria is the largest stablecoin market in sub-Saharan Africa, and USDT is the dollar most Nigerians hold. With formal dollar liquidity perennially thin, remittance operators, importers, and fintechs treat USDT as a working dollar account: value from international counterparties lands as USDT, then converts to USD for settlement or treasury. The P2P market sets the price, but institutional operators pay for that at size.

USD to USDT is pegged. The real question is turnaround from wire receipt to token delivery, and whether the USDT lands on Ethereum, Tron, Solana, or elsewhere.
