Recently the crisis in Zimbabwe have increased the focus of the country towards cryptos. In Zimbabwe, Bitcoin is being traded at premium and about double the international price due to recent military takeover. Africa lacks bank accounts and has many countries with falling economy, in such a situation Bitcoin or cryptocurrencies are like savior. Use of cryptocurrencies have increased a lot in Africa and it is safe heaven to people who don't believe in their governments either because of corruption or inefficiency.

Don't know how many Africans involved in bitcoin revolution, getting close would help create solutions using blockchain and cryptocurrency
There are so many Africans here in this forum and crypto currency is a global currency without boundary, just that the awareness has not gone so much wide on the importance of bitcoin or crypto currency that many shopping store will start accepting it as a mode of payment. There are mining company here in Africa though not a large scale.

am delighted to meet up and learn from other Africans.

It's also a very interesting market because of the disproportionate mobile usage.
High rates of mobile devices even amongst the poorest.
The right solution could really take advantage of that.
Even by the fact that mobile money transfer is very expensive a disruption of the industry via crypto would be beneficial to the poor. Some company using blockchain technology tried to rival leading mobile money firm but they ended up being 'shipped' by the same 'monopoly' company over infrastructure issues. But the idea of money transfer would really to be simple because of low penetration of internet and mobile phone devices not to mention literacy rates in the country I guess across africa! High rates of mobile devices even amongst the poorest.

Joined this platform to learn more about bitcoin and the blockchain technology

Sure I agree lots of opportunities available in Africa for cryptocurrency adoption in Kenya for instance, sorting out house problems for low income earners, access of credit among SMEs, data insights for SMEs too this is a problem even in Africa at large among so many other issues need solution via tokenization
Kenya is an amazing area for bitcoin adoption.
Great balance between developed infrastructure and massive unbanked population

It is true Bitcoin uptake in Africa is very poor but slowly grounds are shifting. For instance, this end month 30/11/2017 me and my partners at Coinweez we organizing a Bitcoin Meet Up in Nairobi-Kenya to try and create crypto awareness especially Bitcoin. The interest is amazing and blowing cant wait.

There are many Africans that are involved in Bitcoin, I am an African from Nigeria and I have been doing some met up lately with other Bitcoin Enthusiasts in the country.
Infact, there is a large community of Nigerians and Africans on Steemit.com. Many Africans are waking up to the possibilities and opportunities that are attached to Bitcoin

There's kobocoin, prosperipro both not very good projects.. Then there is humaniq(not originally from Africa but Africa is their focus. Humaniq is probably the only project worth looking at.

Some governments are implementing private blockchains for various purposes... Regarding cryptocurrencies for public - i dont know any. Why not just stick to BTC, ETH etc?
I dont see much use in 100s of various altcoins... its comfortable to work with a few major ones.
