Everything involving money transfer from one location to another may become obsolete as the world transitions to cryptocurrency for a digital economy.
This digital currency is changing the narrative in the financial world, and those with unique personalities are not being left behind. The majority of the work for other currencies, such as the US dollar, is handled by blockchain.
According to a recent study, over 10,000 different cryptocurrencies exist, with an estimated value of $1.7 trillion. Bitcoin (BTC), Tether (USDT), Binance Coin (BNB), and Dogecoin (DOGE) are some of the most popular cryptocurrencies in terms of market capitalization.
Social media is a popular venue for cryptocurrency influencers to express their views. As a result, they could give the public a complete picture of the blockchain industry’s value using social media.
A “Crypto influencer” is anyone with even knowledge of cryptocurrency. So, in this article, we’ll look at some of Africa’s top crypto influencers.
