Crypto Africa: Paying for a Bottle of Beer With Bitcoin in Kenya

in #bitcoin5 years ago

Hello everyone, welcome to today's edition of Crypto Africa.

Crypto Africa is the name I choose for my posts on blockchain and cryptocurrency adoption across Africa.

In today's edition, I was able to find a very interesting article about paying for a drink with bitcoin in Nairobi as well as the nature of Cryptocurrency in that country.

Bitcoin lounge, a joint located in the out sketch of Nairobi, capital city of Kenya accepts bitcoin as a method of payment to the beer purchases.

Even though majority of the clients have no knowledge of bitcoin and the Kenyan had warned citizens of the risk of dealing with digital money, this joint is not backing down on its Cryptocurrency activity.

Also, a survey carried out the university in Kenyatta university of Ghana proved that many of the students know about bitcoin but have never carried out a Bitcoin or just any Cryptocurrency transaction.

Check out the full story in this article;

Personally, I wish many firms and businesses can pick up this bold step to foster the usage of Cryptocurrency in the country.

Thank you for your time!
