[TheTribesman]

Kobocoin has been listed as one of the Top 100 FinTech companies in Africa and been nominated for an African Fintech Award

The African FinTech 100 and The African FinTech Awards

There are other cryptocurrency projects listed such as BitSoko, a project that aims to use BTC as a payment method on the African continent and has already received a $100,000 grant from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation - Coindesk Article

This is great news for Kobocoin which is now entering it's second year of existence. We've survived a very challenging first year and are looking forward to recognition in the market and growth in the coming years.

No IPO, no ICO, no premine, no forks, no external investment, and a fair launch on 7th February, 2015. This is a major achievement for a small project aiming to break into the largest mobile finance market on the planet.

Thanks to the Kobocoin Community for all your support and encouragement.

We're getting there!!
