What is Akoin? Akoin is a cryptocurrency being developed by artist, entrepreneur, and philanthropist, Akon. Akoin is a token thatās used within something its team calls theā Akoin ecosystem.ā The ecosystem is their platform, within which token holders will be able to use Akoin to interact with different DApps in the marketplace and into the local economy. The ecosystem will launch with a single DApp, but will scale to include more as the platform is tested. The Akoin platform includes a private exchange mechanism (via an Atomic Swap model) that allows Akoin holders to easily move between Akoin tokens, other alternative cryptocurrencies, their local currency and a number of other fiat currencies (dollar, euro, pounds etc). These functionalities coupled with the first DApp theyāre launching can be seen to represent the Akoin MVP (Minimal Viable Product). The reason I bring up Akoin in regards to the unbanked is because of its first DApp and use case:Ā BitMinutes. #appreciation #TokenOfAppreciation #OneCoin4Africa #AkonCryptoCity #Blockchain #TorontoElevate #Malta #OneAfrica #No2AfroPhobia #DeliveringSocialJustice #Akoin4Africa #BeDaring #GetAkoinTOAs #DevelopingTheImageOfACreativeSociety #Blockchain4SocialGood (at Gamalakhe) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2vF2CKD2wo/?igshid=65d2cqsu0z17
