Bitcoin is a currency of refuge, if Africa has poor people these people will eventually invest in bitcoin, I believe that in a few years all countries will be allowing the use of bitcoin. I always say that the biggest obstacle that we Africans have faced is the corruption on a large scale, Africans have a very retarded way of thinking... If an African becomes president of a country, this African takes the government as if it were property of him, this African enriches his entire family with the hard-earned money of the people.
The African is poor, but he lives in luxury. All members of that president's political party live in the greatest joy and wealth.
Africa's poverty started from the colonization of European countries. History dictated how the poor continent wanted to overcome the problem. Africa is a rich continent, different natural resources can be found in Africa, black diamonds can be seen in Africa (the most luxurious diamond in the world). Unfortunately, the continent is under corrupted government. The development becomes stagnant and almost all citizens are deprive for education. There is no more changing, there is no more progression for the Africa, the problem needs to deal by the government. If the government cares about the citizen and the country, they will make improvements for the Africa.
When does the Africa moves on? I believe that there are time for something, Africa will reach its peak if all of the people are united as one and when the government will take care for the welfare of the citizen. The adaption of trends is possible if they resolve first the undying problem of Africa, the corruption.
