Too many organizations has existed towards the adoption of this new technology in Nigeria. Sometime around July The Africa Blockchain Hub was launched by KAD ICT Hub, Kaduna in partnership with the Kaduna Government. Also Le Blanc Crypto Group a new organization with the aim of spreading the knowledge about Blockchain Technology will be holding a Blockchain Summit in Lagos this September. All these are aimed towards the mass adoption of Blockchain Technology. The Technology of Transparency.
Recently it was gathered from Localbitcoins by Coindance that Nigeria had traded $258.3m worth of Bitcoin out of the $6.23b traded so far on Localbitcoins. The figure is quite amazing. This puts Nigeria on the International Map as the country with the highest transaction on bitcoin at Localbitcoins from Africa. Thou the Nigerian government seems to be adamant to the new Technology. The trend is inevitable for adoption.
