After days of speculation, Charles Hoskinson, the CEO of Input Output Global (IOG), the firm behind Cardano, has hinted at the official signing of a deal dubbed ‘Africa Special’ with the Ethiopian government.
Hoskinson tweeted a picture puzzle decoded by the Cardano community offering strong clues that the Ethiopian government was ready to use the Cardano blockchain.
He shared two photos in his tweet, with one image showing a white-cheeked Turaco bird with an Ethiopian origin. Alongside the bird, there was an image of John Hancock, an American merchant and former president of Congress during the Declaration of Independence. He is known for his large signature on the Declaration.
