Sad to be leaving the continent…for now. Africa will define the future (especially the bitcoin one!). Not sure where yet, but I’ll be living here for 3-6 months mid 2020. Grateful I was able to experience a small part. 🌍 pic.twitter.com/9VqgbhCXWd

In a tweet, CEO of Twitter, Jack Dorsey, has said that the African continent will define the future of crypto, specifically Bitcoin.

The Twitter CEO has attended various bitcoin meetups in Nigeria, Ghana, and Ethiopia. This is not surprising considering that he has been a big advocate and supporter for Bitcoin and the Bitcoin Lightning Network payment solution. He has also pledged to integrate Bitcoin payments into both of his startups, Twitter and Square.
The wave of crypto adoption across Africa continues to gain momentum and Jack Dorsey’s endorsement is evidence of this growing interest and acceptance of cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin on the continent.
