  Using the black market rate for dollar to naira transactions in the cryptocurrency world is a gray area. While it may not be explicitly illegal, it is important to consider the potential risks involved. The black market rate is typically higher than the official exchange rate, which can attract attention from regulatory authorities. Additionally, using the black market rate may expose you to scams or fraudulent activities. It is advisable to consult with a legal professional or financial advisor before engaging in such transactions.
