This is just one aspect of crypto adoption that is not growing rapidly in Africa. We rely more on P2p trading. Merchants are not openly receiving crypto as payments.

That's the only way we survive here as our leaders seem to be archaic and not appreciate new technology.

I dont think it is too wide spread. The US doesnt have much either, nor does Canada I believe.

It will take time. I think the other areas like lending and collateralization are far more important. That will take off quicker.

For a nation like Nigeria, P2P is essentially the only way to use crypto at the moment. Things may be better for crypto in a nation like the Central African Republic which became the 2nd nation after El Salvador to adopt Bitcoin as legal tender crypto.

Here they started to accept them in some places as an alternative way to overcome the crisis the country was going through. At that time, there was a shortage of local cash and a lot of government controls. I guess it was the perfect scenario for cryptos to enter the scene.
