Otherwise, Africa sits on the richest mineral and diamond deposits, they can be the richest continent on earth. But due to failed administration, they have become the poorest continent! Blockchain or cryptos can't do much unless the governments want it, apart from having control on their own wealth!
I pretty much agree with avikz.
If Africa doesn't have the ability to stand as a better continent despite they have the most valuable minerals in their lands than how a cryptocurrency will help them to benefit from. Maybe some African nations are doing good now, but most of the nations are still struggling with wars.
The nasty politics and also the first world manipulation will never let Africa stand on their own until they suck out all the minerals they got imo.
I have seen some images where African locals work in gold mines as labor for foreigners but they don't have the ability yet to mine on their own. Why do governments lease the lands to outsiders?
