In what way precisely would it be better for Africa and eventually for us all. I mean what makes Africa such a good candidate for crypto in your eyes?
Well, for one thing... some of the poorest people on earth are living in Africa. Most of these people do not have access to Banking systems or they simply cannot afford it.
A lot of these people are already using M-Pesa on their mobile phones, but the fees are pushing a lot of the poorest people out of the financial system. People will be able to charge a few cents for micro tasks and also collect those deposits, to be used for micro payments.
Ah ok cool, thanks for your answer/explanation. Will they have issues with trust though, in the sense that is it easy for them to trust this digital solution, I can imagine that there might be some hesitation surrounding this transition. But than again you say that they use M-Pesa, not familiar with it but I assume that it is also an electronic means of payment. Like with sms or something?
