Nice, that is really good to read. I love that Bitcoin and crypto in general getting more and more recognized. Good that people in Afrika are supporting and embracing the opportunity. Hopefully we will see this kind of adoption all around the world soon.

 Bitcoin is truly unstopable and now africa allowed their people to buy bitcoins they dont wanna left behind. They know bitcoin is a good investment and secure block chain technology africans really a business minded. Bitcoin is really easy to use and now some are accepting bitcoins as payment.

You just cannot keep bitcoin down, corrected and bounced right back

Bitcoin is now very popular in Egypt. I have several Egyptian friends. They often discuss bitcoins and other encrypted currencies together. They even organized a training of bitcoin knowledge in a middle school.

Zimbabwe is one of the countries that using bitcoin more often that their national currency because of the more potential of bitcoin rather than their sinking currency. If bitcoin will be 100% implemented in Zimbabwe, i think that their country can be saved by just working and saving bitcoin.

Did you see the 'time traveler' post?  https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2482799.40  Bitcoin takes off in Africa which helps lead to economy collapse.
Good for them though.  Those Zimbabwe dollars are just not the best store of value and who knows maybe we will make Africa rich.  They could use that.

Saw a really good video on YouTube about this. Bitcoin has not only help individuals free themselves from government controls, but also the governments to free themselves from unfair economic sanction which have left Africa in a disrupted state. Bitcoin is the revolution we have been waiting for.

Bitcoin could lead to a new economic revolution in Africa, because there are a lot of reasons people use btc instead of there national currencies.
one of the best example is driven by Zimbabwe https://news.bitcoin.com/after-mugabe-zimbabwe-pushes-bitcoin-to-17875/
where each btc is traded more than 60% in the rest of the world. Maybe next satoshi will be a citizen from an african country

Wow! That's interesting stuff - local developers are a great asset to have. thank you for finding and sharing

It is real opportunity for Africa to cope with economic problems. Local currencies haven't got stable value as dollar or euro. So, it is one of the few opportunities to help africans save their money (and invest).

Not surprisingly, Bitkoin.Africa is launched by a team of Nigerian developers. In my opinion, Nigeria is one of the progressive countries of this region on an equal footing with the UAE and Southern Africa.

How about Zimbabwe? It has been sad news of what has happened in that country.

Anyone have any news of how things are going in Zimbabwe?

Not just Africa but Nigeria is the leading country bitcoin is gaining  the momentum from. Many Avenue and awareness with a lot if local exchangers

Great move for the people of Africa because they are now adopting great technology that can lead them for a brighter nation. Bitcoin will surely use by many people in the coming years and I am happy that Africa are now using it, more country to come with bitcoin.

I expect you should first and foremost be excited that a brother have taken a bold step to fly the flag of Bitcoin somewhere in Africa and I also expected you to be in a position to make concrete suggestions or constructive criticism to show that the adoption of Bitcoin (cryptocurrency) across Africa matters much to you and not to write him off. I must say here, that nothing will change in Africa, until African become the change they want. Learn to stand up for a brother, no one else in the world would do it for you and every well established venture today didn't start half as sound! Here's the first Rolls Royce, I hope it says something to you!

                                                          
You do not have a proof for that, yet you've gone ahead to propagate it! And if at all, that's going on, the greedy fools and accomplices that patronizes them should have their heads examined!

Africa's one and major problem is its mostly egocentric and stone age rulers, take them aside and Africa would know its best days. Interestingly, Bitcoin is such a solution provider! I think the present generation of Africans ought now to break the jinx by starting to think outside the box - waiting for their governments to generate power or provide infrastructures or food is surely a forlorn hope. By embracing Bitcoin, they can afford the best and latest technologies like green power and with reverse engineering at work, not reinvention of the wheels, things will definitely start to fall into place!

Its actually great to see that bitcoin has already started expanding even in the African countries, which is good in my opinion, in the sense that bitcoin will gain more recognition and popularity within those African countries. This might result in the value of bitcoin skyrocketing to new highs since demand will be increasing than the circulating supply.

Thumbs up!

Africa with Bitcoin is currently led by South Africa, Nigeria, and Kenya.

Probably  the greatest bitcoin achievement in the history. Yet i am still hoping that it could go through to the poorest countries around the world. There are really good developers in nigeria they used create games yet now good to say they are also adopting

It'll help them get favorable exchange rates if they need to buy anything using USD again. Bitcoin is becoming the world's 'gold standard'....currently somewhere around 1% adoption. we can see 2% adoption in a couple of years, and probably 5% world adoption in five years.
Anything above 5% = mainstream.

Africa is host to many great resources, truth and education is key to establishing better futures for her people.
