Blockchain.com Bets Big on Africa as Crypto Rules Finally Crawl Out of Regulatory Limbo

Crypto’s wild west era in Africa may be ending—just as Blockchain.com doubles down. The platform announces aggressive expansion plans across the continent, timing its move as governments scramble to draft frameworks. Smart play or desperate land grab? Only the volatility gods know.
Regulators move at tectonic speeds—unless there’s tax revenue involved. Meanwhile, unbanked populations leapfrog legacy finance with mobile crypto wallets. Traditional banks? Still charging $25 wire fees for 5-day transfers across borders.
Africa’s crypto adoption already leads global rankings. Now watch institutional players rush in—after retail traders did all the risky pioneering work, of course.
