The article explores how these digital currencies can promote financial inclusion, streamline cross-border transactions, and boost economic growth across the continent.   As Kamal pointed out, “𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘪𝘯𝘵𝘳𝘰𝘥𝘶𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘰𝘧 𝘢 𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘭𝘦 𝘱𝘩𝘺𝘴𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘭 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘥𝘪𝘨𝘪𝘵𝘢𝘭 𝘤𝘶𝘳𝘳𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘺 𝘪𝘯 𝘈𝘧𝘳𝘪𝘤𝘢 𝘸𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘦𝘯𝘢𝘣𝘭𝘦 𝘧𝘳𝘦𝘦 𝘮𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘰𝘧 𝘱𝘦𝘰𝘱𝘭𝘦, 𝘴𝘦𝘳𝘷𝘪𝘤𝘦𝘴, 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘤𝘢𝘱𝘪𝘵𝘢𝘭 𝘸𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘪𝘯𝘥𝘪𝘷𝘪𝘥𝘶𝘢𝘭𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘣𝘶𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘦𝘴 𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘴𝘦𝘢𝘮𝘭𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘭𝘺 𝘢𝘤𝘤𝘦𝘴𝘴 𝘰𝘯𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘦 𝘢𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘷𝘪𝘵𝘪𝘦𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘣𝘦𝘯𝘦𝘧𝘪𝘵 𝘧𝘳𝘰𝘮 𝘴𝘮𝘰𝘰𝘵𝘩 𝘤𝘳𝘰𝘴𝘴-𝘣𝘰𝘳𝘥𝘦𝘳 𝘪𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘢𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯, 𝘩𝘢𝘳𝘮𝘰𝘯𝘪𝘻𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘱𝘰𝘭𝘪𝘤𝘪𝘦𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘴𝘵𝘳𝘦𝘯𝘨𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘪𝘯𝘷𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘧𝘭𝘰𝘸𝘴.”   With countries like Nigeria and Rwanda leading the way in CBDC adoption, there’s a clear opportunity for Africa to enhance its economic integration. However, significant challenges—such as privacy concerns, cybersecurity risks, and the need for strong regulatory frameworks—must still be addressed. The lessons learned from the Eurozone experience offer valuable guidance on building a secure and stable digital economy.   At The Hashgraph Association, we are proud to support Africa's digital future and contribute to this transformative dialogue.
