Another positive news came from Africa, where the Central African Republic approved Bitcoin as the official currency. The decision was based on a unanimous vote of MPs.
The move, the presidency said in a statement, puts the Central African Republic ‘on the map of the bravest and most copacobana99 visionary country’.
The Central African Republic is one of the poorest countries in the world. But it is rich in diamonds, gold and uranium.
Today, the Central African Republic uses the French-backed CFA franc currency along with most of the country’s former African colonies.
However, this Bitcoin approval is not in line with the internet infrastructure in the country, where the coverage of internet users is indeed very low. In the 2019 World Data report, only 4% of Central Africans have access to cyberspace.
This triggers one of the computer scientists, Sydney Tickaya, who says that adoption tends to be premature and irresponsible. He highlighted the retarded internet access there.
“Internet access is still underdeveloped in the country while Bitcoin is completely dependent on the internet,” said Tickaya
