She said the African continent has the fastest adoption rates in the world, saying at such rate, the continent may surpass America, Europe, or even Asia.
She noted that the maiden African Bitcoin Conference scheduled to hold in Accra, Ghana between December 3rd and 5th would attract about 800 people across the globe to speak about new innovations in the sector.
Speaking on Bitcoin investment, she urged Nigerians to be careful.
Nabourema said, “when people say can I invest in Bitcoin? I just tell them, can you invest in naira? Can you invest in dollars? The whole idea of Bitcoin making money out of Bitcoin is buying it and holding it.”
