Most nations especially in Africa lately adopted the modern digital technological, Previously we've been in the primitive and analog system and due to the hardship and lack of standard education, we've been trying to remain ignorant over Internet facilities and its networking was untrust due to underdevelopments.
The mentality was being too poor that our government could always convince us with lies and formalities just so that we don't get to know about the advents of the modern reality world which we're in today.
The impacts of the government towards us was that we don't need to know the truth so that we don't have them questioned, they refused to comply with infrastructures to enhance and build our mental faculties because they're afraid that we might be some kind greater than they may be and that seems as threats to them.
The late enlightenments to the modern and digital world we lives today has caused us setback from venturing into the digital technology systems that's how we've also missed the opportunities to adopt in investing in the BITCOIN when it was earlier introduced. Then we had no knowledge of it and the government fed us with lies that the BITCOIN CRYPTO DIGITAL FINANCIAL TECHNOLOGY was a scam and as then, we strongly believed that the government got our back.

I can categorically say it that we all have that thought about "How possible can a currency be on visual system but can't be physically felt or hold as the fiats"?. We were mislead and wrongly influenced by the government that bitcoin developers were just in to steal our money with the digital financial technology format.
It was further a big doubt when the government was not in support of the bitcoin which we formally believed that the government was much knowledgeable than the masses but not knowing the government was specifically against it because it was a decentralized and non custodial financial system that they can not be politicized with their influence of authorities.
We actually thought the government has our back not knowing they were only being self centered for selfish interests.

If we watch today, individuals has been much creative enough to initiate variety of digital technologies, creativities and entrepreneurships with the potentials of enhancing infrastructures and contributing to both individual and national economy growths.
Time goes as we steps on engaging in discoveries, taking challenges with our unusuals factorizing on meeting with greater opportunities which at most privilege opportunities are of technologies as the world also advances with economy impacts.
Remorsefully, it's worth revealing that the government has been behind back hiding the necessities from us and we were being fooled with all that insights about bitcoin and the reasons why we were being deprived from learning about the new era ecosystem and adapting to the digital and technological world.

However, we've personally gone a long way of investing on ourselves intellectually and otherwise in discovering of new opportunities for greater incomes which the tasks of struggles has as much had us the morale to to ignore the government, move on to life in giving those areas which the government has sabotaged and criticized trial and behold, BITCOIN was one of a great event which the government never wanted us to know the true being of its development on how it could serve as alternative means to facilitate on making payments which is far better than the banking financial system that's centralized under their control and also the fact that it could enhance interpersonal financial upgrade which means it could as well serve as investment purposes with the potentials to enrichments.
The government never gave a damn about us as much as they feel unsafe if the masses could be confident, intellectually morals and self reliance to themselves.
It's obvious that the government is being jealous with the digital technology because the masses are comfortable with it due to the fact that BITCOIN is a self moderating digital assets by which numerous individuals do have their funds saved in the digital system productively holding for source of income as investment.
The governments now fights bitcoin and the cryptocurrencies in general because it's a decentralized non custodial digit system.
Since they failed in twisting the minds of the public that bitcoin was fake and scamming scheme, they've diverted to other dimension just to hinder the bitcoin investors and those vendors accepting bitcoin for payments with a allegedly claims that bitcoin is affecting the economy growth by having effect on the devaluing of the fiat.

I actually came up with this thread after I've put to considerations in researching why most of bitcoin Investors expresses their regrets of coming late to the bitcoin industry was because of the lies laideby our governments and also why the government is being against the non custodian financial system as bitcoin and the cryptocurrencies at large is because the government have in plan to economically imprison the people in the future but was unfortunate for them that one single individual known to be Satoshi Nakamoto came to deliver the world from such disasterous plans of the government to take control over treasures of the people.

OP, this is a long write up with Pretoria's of discussion within it. I agree with you to some extent about the fact that the African people at some point have been disenfranchised from setting information that has been going on, on the global stage. innovation and technological advancement most times comes to Africa at a later stage, however some people would say it is better late than never. The present sanctions most government especially in Africa are throwing on cryptocurrency is basically because of the fact that they find it extremely difficult for them to use their Central Banks to control cryptocurrency, hence they decided to bring up this ideas of subtle policies that try to hinder the free flow or growth of cryptocurrency in some countries.
In as much as the government still try to hinder some of the activities of crypto enthusias, there has been a lot of African youth that have over the years built their own knowledge oncryptocurrency and other Innovations in technological advancement without the help of government. So i believe with time the knowledge so far acquired by this African youth will saturate across sub-saharan Africa.
