There is so much concern for Nigerians in terms of employment and job opportunities. Due to the striking unemployment rate and the unstable economy, the naira value keeps depreciating day by day, and Nigerians now seek ways to work more so as to earn more money. Many who don’t have a full-time job have involved themselves in part-time jobs (majorly online) and they earn payments in dollars, from Nigeria. This is possible because they discovered some strategies, some of which we will be sharing in this article.
- Bitcoin: Bitcoin is the most common and valuable form of cryptocurrency all over the world. Cryptocurrencies are decentralized digital assets, they are unaffected by the economy and can be instantly traded. You can obtain Bitcoin through various methods like trading gift cards, PayPal, etc. With bitcoin, you can make cool cash in dollars after trading. However, to start trading Bitcoin, you must get yourself familiar with Blockchain, because it is the technology that runs Bitcoin and every other cryptocurrency, if you do not familiarize yourself with Blockchain, you might end up making mistakes and lose your income, but if on the other hand, you got familiar, be sure to make lots of dollars. another option to earn on cryptocurrency is investing in stablecoins which track the price of US dollars, investing in stable funds will help you earn interest
- Teaching online: this is one of the easiest ways to make cool dollars in Nigeria. With English as our official language, there are countries that have English rather as their second language, and this is where the gist comes in.

Sites like Teacheron give you the opportunity as a potential teacher to meet potential students and teach them English language. Once you register, you get the chance to set up your own convenient teaching time and you can teach wherever you are. Everything is done online and you work according to your convenient schedule.
- Translation: you can also earn unending dollars from translation. Let me first say that learning any foreign language is not an easy task, so if you are so privileged to know one or two fluently, you have done a great job and we both know you don’t want that great job to become a waste, which is why I want to inform you that you can earn by translating. Freelance websites like Translatorcafe will connect you with thousands of job postings in search of translators, interpreters, copywriters, and many more. Project can vary, while some projects may be done online, some might require an in-person presence. Furthermore, projects vary across different topics like law, sport, education etc., so like I mentioned earlier, if you have a foreign language knowledge or you are studying a foreign language in school, this is a chance for you to explore your field, flex your muscles and make cool dollars.
