Topic: Niger State Government About To Adopt Bitcoin As A Trade Subject - page 2. (Read 360 times)

The first time I heard about Niger was after the military coup a few weeks ago, which was followed by an attempt by them to remove the French role in controlling the aspects of the state, especially uranium. Therefore, I did not think that they would be open to discussing issues such as blockchain or teaching Bitcoin to children. Will this decision include the entire country or a group? Specific schools or how will it be included in the educational curricula? Because including such things in our educational curricula takes an average of 5 years and 3 years before it is approved, as the curriculum is amended every 5 years.

You do an extraordinary job and not many of us are capable of doing that at the government level. this way you can more easily provide many new opportunities especially encouraging the younger generation to know all the benefits. However in my opinion this will be a big responsibility because the government also wants control that can provide positive feedback. Hopefully your struggle can produce the expected results.  This action is certainly considered  brave because we usually avoid government matters  when it comes to bitcoin. You know for yourself our ownership does not want to be kissed and taxed. Haha

I would be very happy if  there is any new news that you can share here the government there is definitely considering many things because this will involve the freedom sector.

I did not read your last topic but you really have made a success here, I am really happy, because I came to know the condition of those who have adopted the crypto and how they are treated when get caught by the authorities. For that member who was on a routine checking of a bus was held by police and then asked forced by police to send them $1000 dollars when they saw crypto apps on his phone. That's really scary but I think this step will take you all from the dark cave which you are talking about.

I hope this will work out for you all and crypto will be legalized in your place. I am happy for you, keep it up dear. Things will change for crypto adopters.

Hey congratulations for what you have achieved, man. Despite the difficulties placed by the central government in Nigeria, or I do not know if thanks to them, I see many people in the forum very active with initiatives to normalize and popularize the Bitcoin. Receiving such recognition in the state of Niger is not a minor issue.

A question for those who do not know the area: I imagine that Niger state, part of Nigeria, is completely different from Niger country? I guess if they share name is because of the river.

Hey guys!

I was so elated to receive a call from the SSG (Secretary to the State Government) of Niger State almost a week ago after we've all waited anxiously for a response from the state government following the letter we submitted two months ago about "Introducing The Bitcoin Technology Into Our Secondary Schools Curriculum as a Trade Subject".

Although I have traveled out of town and could not make it there physically, I sent my team members to represent me at the meeting with the SSG.

The SSG received my delegates at his office on Tuesday, 5th to give them a brief of the discussions they have with the governor and their resolution.

Prominent in all the discussions they had was the aspect where the SSG mentioned to them that although they are ambitious about the new evolution inbuilt in the digital world, the fintech and the digital currency, they are still xraying the advancement aspect and are desirous of the very positive results the state is interested in especially as it resonates with their agenda.

He then issued the letter dated December , 4th to to my delegates as an official reply to our demand on the adoption of bitcoin technology and request that we remain patient while the government employ the necessary human resources to acqualize this ambitious dream.

My delegates were very happy about this development while I requested that they scan the letter and send to me.

Below is a reciept of the scanned copy of the official response from the SSG.
