but Africans seem just interested by BTC, few of them use the BTC!

Kind of strange that there would be such a divergence of opinion concerning the utilization of crypto in Africa verses the need for assistance in developing nations.  Naturally Africans need a stable currency to thrive (after-all a destabilized currency causes hyperinflation and that is the last thing an already fragile economy would want).  Infrastructure in the form of roads and rail together with clean drinking water and energy supply are all needed, but sadly more and more examples are arising where people in remote areas are connecting to the outside world with cheep phones and even cheaper cell phone plans.

It will be interesting how the introduction of Facebook's dedicated crypto currency into the mixture will affect the use or otherwise of both bitcoin and their in-house Libra token.

Cryptocurrency is not so massive yet, because people just don’t know how to work with it. I think that cryptocurrencies could be a good way to promote young talented developers. That is why people need to be given access to cryptocurrency. So you can invest in the development of the country.

But a crypto currency such as bitcoin's volatility would only add misery to an already suffering nation if the price plumeted such as it did recently before returning to more accepted levels.  A villager isn't going to accept that the bitcoin they ammased has suddenly halved in value in the same way fiat deflates via hyperinflation.  They get rid of bitcoin and will be scared off of it for a long, long time.  Build up the nation first and gradually introduce bitcoin to the masses.

Blockchain and cryptocurrency is the factor that helps create balance in the world. If wealthy people can afford shares on the stock market, even young people can afford cryptocurrency. Bitcoin is not just a valuable coin, it is an access to the world of realized people, capable of creating something new.

In many countries, international companies for transactions either have very high rates or have limited services. And therefore, decentralized Bitcoin allows you to make transactions with less loss on commissions and restrictions. For many countries, even those that do not have sanctions cryptocurrency can be very useful.

The same thing will happen in the western world when the price of bitcoin goes about a certain level.  Probably $100,000 (a million?) Hard to say really, but with only 21 million bitcoins the likelihood of everyone owning bitcoins will get further and further beyond the reach of most people.  Altcoins will have their place alongside bitcoin which will act as a clearing house for larger size transactions which is why in Africa bitcoins adoption is unlikely to occure anytime soon.

Bitcoin and charity are two different thing.  I just wish bitcoin should be well known in Africa like other countries so as to open Africans eyes that bitcoin is one of the best way to invest their money.

Wow grear post.. also informative.. yeah i knw people of africa are using bitcoin..

I don't agree with this. It's more like the lack of interest to learn. Pretty sure, a lot of Africans have access to facebook and other social media where they can learn more about Bitcoin.

But then again, we see a lot of airdrop and bounty hunters from Africa.
