Akon is all set to build a smart green cryptocurrency city in Senegal. AKON city will use AKOIN. The vision for the cryptocurrency city project was publicized back in 2018, and Akoin will be the sole cryptocurrency of the city. Solar power will be the defining concept of Akon City. The city is set to be powered by renewable energy and, therefore, is set to be an “Eco-Tourism Destination.”

On January 13, 2020, Akon Tweeted: “Just finalized the agreement for AKON CITY in Senegal. Looking forward to hosting you there in the future.”

Akon’s AKOIN Cryptocurrency to Advance Themselves Independent of Government

Sydney Ifergan, Crypto Expert Tweeted: “Akon is moving ahead with something that is still in the form of an idea in the minds of many. Waiting to visit the smart green cryptocurrency city in Senegal.” He further tweeted: “Akon’s love for Africa is seen in his Lighting Africa Initiative. More than ownership, it is philanthropy and empathy to ensure improved lifestyle facilitated with basic necessities.”

Sall, Senegal President, gave 2000 acres to the legendary rapper. The construction of the project has already begun, and the second phase of the project construction is allotted for 2025.

Akon stated, “Cryptocurrency and blockchain technology offers a more secure currency that enables people in Africa to advance themselves independent of the government.”

AKOIN Cryptocurrency City in Senegal

For those who are not sure about the humane feelings that make this project, Akon, in the past, spoke about how it felt to see young children, grown men, and women crying in wonder because it was the first time that they are witnessing artificial light. Children were able to study at night using artificial light, something that was not possible before the coming of the artificial light. The Akon Lighting project changed the world of the “Akon Lighting Area in Africa” for better.

The blockchain technology is proving to be a savior for Africa in several ways by giving power to the people through cryptocurrency. Thus, governments cannot force people down when cryptocurrency can lift them.

The 100% crypto-centric city will serve as a model city for several unbanked economies across the world. The realities of the power of blockchain technology are showing up in real-time in the real-world through philanthropists like Akon.

The website of the legendary rapper states that Akoin will soon be available in 54 African Countries. Their goal is to empower Africa by uniting Africa with cryptocurrency.

The White Paper of Akoin Coin will be live by February 2020.
