The current good news in africa aside.
The recent blockchain conference in africa aside.
When some people hear of africa, they imagine helpless people, hunger, civil wars, diseases and natural disasters.
Just of recent i wrote a post about the struggles and successes of some countries in the africa about the blockchain technology adoption.

While africa may not seem like the most natural place to take on the 4th industrial revolution, it surely is suitable for the kind of improvement.
Amongst all continents around the world,we have so far seen the improvements tackle some of the most disturbing issues in Africa.

Political manipulation, with things to do with the authenticity in voting of the leaders.
Land and property registration with blockchain, also wrote about it. This improving on the transparency of property ownership, all along have we seen authorities opressing the poor, taking their property, manipulation ownership through documents again through high positions in the government.
Employment, as a must.
Looking at steemit or platforms like it as one of the future opportunities for alot of youths in uganda.
Checking, steemit.com/created/uganda we see alot of graduates that have made some more money from steemit than they would have made on their jobs which they can't even find.
The binance commitment to embrace even more of this technology, starting up an office in uganda with one of the aims of providing employment across uganda or even africa entirely.
Check out this my post for more.

Replacing of banks, with most people living in remote areas, where it is even harder to access banks, few own cars to come to these little towns that have bank services, incurring more transport changes to go to banks which even very often take advantage of the people themselves.
When i started using the most convenient digital money that there has been in uganda and that is mobile money, i felt the freedom that cryptocurrencies or blockchain technology altogether would bring.
Education and medicine.
Using OST’s technology, Block Commodities will build an ecosystem comprised of multiple e-commerce partners. It will feature not only local vendors and service providers but key medical and educational institutions as well.
FACES tokens can then be redeemed for vital services when people need them, providing masses of underprivileged individuals with the care they need to help prevent the spread of disease and improve life expectancy, which is just 53.05 in Nigeria.
Had an insight from credit
Still there alot to be done, but there is no doubt, this adoption is going really fast.
Glad am part of it.
As always
