I have a little bit of money invested in Bitcoin, using BitX as my exchange. It’s a bit of an investment in a possible future.
Today i got a note from BitX telling me about all the stores in South Africa accepting Bitcoin.
The fact that I can trade in a virtual currency and not use a bank is amazing to me. All these options online for me to use the Bitcoin – It’s sci-fi come to life.
Africa is adopting new technologies quickly and will likely leapfrog some older infrastructures as new developments take hold. That is what happened in Kenya with MPesa. It is happening in Rwanda with drones. Maybe it will happen with Bitcoin too.
