The African Blockchain Opportunity Book Launch!

BitHub.Africa a blockchain Accelerator based in Nairobi Kenya has spent a considerable amount of time researching and looking into different crypto-currencies and platforms to determine which ones offer either a unique value proposition or innovative solutions to common placed problems that exist in Africa.

This is because African countries like Kenya have been adopting Digital Currencies like M-Pesa faster than any other region in the entire globe. In the book titled The blockchain Opportunity BitHub.Africa has comprehensively reviewed 16 crypto-currency and blockchain platforms that will disrupt existing Incumbents across key sectors like Finance, Technology, and Commerce.

The book targets blockchain entrepreneurs, investors, researchers, and enthusiasts. It will be launched on August 31st at the Aitec 10th Annivesary Conference on technology to secure and transform financial services, which will be held in Nairobi, Kenya.
