This study examines the media framing of cryptocurrency regulation in Nigeria within the context of Mass Communication. It explores how Nigerian media organizations present, interpret, and influence public understanding of government policies and regulatory actions surrounding cryptocurrency activities. The study adopts a descriptive research design, using content analysis and survey methods to examine selected media reports and audience perceptions. Data were gathered from newspapers, online news platforms, and responses from media audiences and industry stakeholders. The findings reveal that Nigerian media predominantly frame cryptocurrency regulation through themes of risk, financial instability, fraud, and government control, while relatively less attention is given to innovation, financial inclusion, and economic opportunities. The study also finds that media framing significantly influences public perception, with many audiences associating cryptocurrency primarily with illegality and financial insecurity due to dominant negative framing. However, alternative framing that highlights innovation and technological advancement tends to generate more balanced perceptions among respondents. The study concludes that media framing plays a crucial role in shaping public understanding of cryptocurrency regulation in Nigeria. It further emphasizes that biased or one-sided framing may contribute to misinformation and policy misunderstanding. The study recommends balanced and objective reporting by media organizations, improved regulatory communication strategies, and enhanced media literacy among the public to ensure a more informed understanding of cryptocurrency issues in Nigeria....Preview Download Preview +Other Mass Communication project topics and materials you might be interested in»Impact of social media on students academic performance (a study of students of university of Abuja) »Impact of social media on modern journalism (a study of journalists in Makurdi metropolis) »Impact of information and communication technology (ICT) on radio news reporting (a study of Atlantic FM Uyo) »Perception of cyber crime among Nigerian youths (a study of Caritas university) »The effect of government ownership and control of mass media objectivity reporting (a case study of Enugu state broadcasting services) »Coverage of foreign news by Nigerian newspapers: A content analysis of vanguard and daily sun newspapers»Audience perception of Nigerian newspapers on the internet»Impact of mobile phone on agricultural information among Otukpo farmers»The Effects of Television Commercials on Buying Habits of Enugu Metropolis ( A Case Study of Omo and Elephant Detergents )»Influence of news censorship on the performance of media houses in Nigeria (a study of Nasarawa broadcasting service, Lafia) »Importance of indigenous language in broadcasting media»Role of communication technology in improving work efficiency of AIT staff (a study of AIT Abuja) »Influence of television advertising on consumer buying habits of Guinness stout in Ikeja community of Lagos state»The effect of AKBC tv peak milk advertisement on the consumers buying habit»Effect of public relations on the consumer (a case study of premier breweries plc)
