Youth in Blockchain Summit

African Blockchain Initiative (ABI) is an ed-tech venture promoting education and knowledge about blockchain technology and cryptocurrencies in the African continent. There is huge information gap about blockchain between Africa and other continents. Our vision is thus to bridge this wide information gap and foster understanding of blockchain and the impact it could have in transforming the continent. We achieve this through our 4 tools and services:• The Crypto-Simulator: A simulated experience of the cryptocurrencies trading market seeking to build practical learning of this relatively new market through virtual money trading.• ABI School Chapters: We create institutional blockchain and cryptocurrency clubs in universities or high schools which we service with weekly content to teach members about blockchain technology.• Basic to Pro Blockchain Course: A non-technical blockchain course that takes beginners/dummies to pros about blockchain technology and its use in industries other than just finance.• ABI Blog: Get updated with content about blockchain, cryptocurrencies or any news in the market through our blog articles, videos or podcasts.
