The Detail

Nigerian rent is typically annual and chunky — exactly the transfer size where percentage-based remitter costs hurt most. On ₦3,000,000 rent (~$1,850), a 4% all-in remitter cost is ₦120,000; the USDT route costs about ₦1,600. Many diaspora Nigerians maintaining a family house keep their own verified Monica account for exactly this: they hold USDT, convert when rent is due, and pay the landlord directly.
