• Akon a popular pop singer has been in recent headlines following his venture to build a 100% renewable city that will run on a digital cryptocurrency token called Akoin. He sets his sights and dreams to ensure the future of africa to be a hub for something never done before in history. His foresight and his bravery to take such a huge risk and use his time and energy to create such a massive project makes me believe akon will go down in history as a person who changed the world. At least africas world.

    With African nations crumbling infrastructure and over inflated currency many Africans seek new ways to trade and earn currency through cryptocurrency. If done correctly and with the help of the African people they could really spark a new era for the african continent. The project will be in three phases and as i watch closely for news about this project it makes me consider getting a travel visa to someday visit this tech city. Talks of the city being a hub for the greatest doctors and hospitals in the world, including a seaport with a hospital ship. Having clean air powered by solar energy. Africa definitely is in need of something big. Is akoin city what africa has been waiting for?

With its untapped resources and work force its potential is huge.

  Akon sees what africa can become through using his cryptocurrency Akoin to fuel the economy of his city. He has secured the land and the rights from the president of senagal and its all been green lighted and construction has begun as i speak.

   Me being from the united states unfortunately i can only wait and watch as USA citizens ansd Canadian are unable to purchase akoin utility token from Bitfinex. Is theres a work around to get around this? Im really not sure. As for now the utility token will only be able to be used in the eco system within the city once complete. With there wallet you are able to easily swap in and out of the ecosystem with a sine click if ylur looking to convert akoin to another currency.

 For now we can only imagine how this will play out. It sure is am exciting thing to see happening and if all goes well can really show the rest of the world society and cities can function freely with a digital currency backes by its people to builda new way of life and give those developing nations a chance to rise up. Until more is released i sit anxiously waiting to get a hold on some Akoin...
