But come to think of it, this digital portal and mobile app does it have anything to do with the blockchain and crypto currency?

You have answered your question from your above response. This is not only good for just the economy but for individuals because is likely that cryptocurrency will be more popular and that will create awareness for investment by old and the young into blockchain, cryptocurrency and online education.

Thank Goodness that Nigeria has opened up their heart to embrace technology such as this to boast their economy, at least many young people will have something doing at the comfort of their house

I think its another progression for the splendid fate of bitcoin. Bitcoin is presently getting famous step by step and I know there will be the point at which it buys fiat.
It's incredible news for bitcoin clients and Nigerian people, More People get to think about it more they involve.
There's an exceptionally possibility of augmentation in bitcoin's cost.

I don't think that Digital Nigeria will make them invest in cryptocurrenc, both things are different even though cryptocurrency and Digital are under technology, they are still really different, I took  ICT before aay back on my senior high but we didnt discussed about cryptocurrency becuase it onlwayocused on the basics of technoldidn'tnd some prong languages. Because far from investng in crupto, It would be dangerous for the people to invest if they are just investing crypto.

For cryptocurrency investment in Africa, Nigeria look the largest investor on it even before the system tries going towards the digital system. It may not have the large exchanges in number but on individual base or in single investment, the Nigerian people are investing largely in cryptocurrency.

good movement from Nigeria, things that should be imitated by other African continent countries, I think the African continent has the potential for cryptocurrency that will continue to grow and develop.  they don't want to be left behind with other continents. in developed countries, the development of digital money and applications for buying and selling transactions involving cryptocurrency deserves continued attention.

Indeed,  and its good  more African countries can benefit  from cryptocurrency. They will have access to digital currencies for ease of transaction worldwide. It will also create more opportunities to its people. Hope government should fast track and create more policy friendly towards cryptocurrency.

Africa still far from crypto technology but i see that there is some good activities that can help african people to know about crypto

Unfortenetly the governements of african countries didnt make any Initiatives to help crypto livers but this is not really bad because there is thousands of crypto users there

Pantami stated that governments all over t the world are now favouring skills over certificates, and noted that the newly launched Nigerians APP will help Nigerians gain important skillsAs we know that Degrees are only meant to validate skills. This is a growing trend across the globe. For instance, China recently started the process of turning 600 of the country’s general universities into skill centres. Also, the President of the United States of America signed an Executive Order on the 26th of June 2020 directing the federal government lay emphasis on skills rather than degrees when hiring staff. The curriculum vitae of today should have 2 main parts- soft skills and hard skills.
Now we are waiting for other countries like africa and some Asian countries governments to get step for cryptocurrency.

This is a great news in all its forms. In fact, I give it to the Nigerian government for once trying to do the right thing in the technology sector.

Their effort in encouraging their talented youths to embrace the trending ecosystem of technology and blockchain in particular by laying down a legal framework to regulate the sector and cryptocurrency activities deserves commendation.

This is encouraging than their usual way of suppressing the common masses and the youths in particular, with their pervasive laws and lackadaisical approach to global trends which have led to the country lagging behind in all major tech developments despite being home to some of the most talented young people in the world.

The partnership with AfDB and Microsoft is a welcome development and will definitely contribute to tech skills development of its growing young populations which is the fastest growing in Africa (if not in the world as well).

I have read somewhere that bitcoin adoption in Nigeria is among the top according to research. The reason why they reached that spot is completely a different story. In short, they were exposed to it through scams and Ponzi schemes which lead to wide adoption.

Have to back this one up, African continents tend to rely more on cashless transfers because most of the countries tend to fall into inflation. Not to mention that security and peace is still not that developed for some places I guess, so having your fiat at hand will make things worse. I always see that Nigeria is on the news when it comes to cryptocurrency, I guess they do know the potential that it can bring.

Countries without economy hopes that bitcoin will help them
