The hype was real. When Trump first indicated a pro-crypto position (most notably with the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve plan that sent Bitcoin’s value skyrocketing). The reality? That’s a huge disappointment, particularly to Africa’s rapidly growing fintech market. In the process, the often-forgotten continent is again, er, forgotten. We were sold...
