In Nigeria, banks were blocked from sending bitcoin to exchanges for three years but people went around that en masse.
In Egypt, black market physical dollars have a lot of legal issues, but people regularly use them anyway.
In Egypt there's a weak bitcoin ban in place but people could go around it since it's hard to enforce. Most people don't though. Appreciation for bitcoin or even stablecoins isn't very widespread there yet, although if the currency keeps deteriorating in the coming years that might change.
