Bitcoin’s origins in defiance of traditional banking have evolved into practical applications, especially in Africa. Yellowcard, founded in 2016, has become a pioneer in simplifying crypto access across the continent. CEO Chris Maurice emphasizes crypto’s role in providing financial services to underserved markets. As governments in Kenya, Nigeria, and Rwanda embrace crypto regulation, the shift from speculative trading to real-world use cases accelerates. Yellowcard capitalizes on stablecoin adoption for remittances and payments, positioning Africa as a leader in crypto innovation. With increasing global acceptance, the future of crypto in Africa focuses on accessibility, infrastructure, and everyday utility.
