A tough call, but word on the blockchainverse had it that Sui Kenya had better food (yes, that matters), now that kenyans are looking for a way to automate chapati making, one must realize how much we love and respect the food, thank God for the 45th tribe of Kenya and a buffet of different colored juic...

Web3 is fundamentally reshaping the way people interact with digital economies. One of the most powerful innovations emerging in this space is yield sharing, where platforms distribute a portion of their revenue to users simply for participating. This model is gaining traction globally, but its impact in Africa could be particularly revolutionary. From crypto wallets that reward users, to decentralized finance (DeFi) platforms paying interest on stablecoins, and blockchain-based music streami...

Web3 is growing on us, but here’s the thing—blockchain adoption doesn’t just depend on technology. Nope, it’s about people. It’s about culture. It’s about whether your country has the chaotic energy to make decentralization work. Take Kenya, for example. Kenyans don’t just hustle; they multi-hustle.Kenyan Hustle: Why M-Pesa Was Just the BeginningLet’s talk about our parents. They didn’t have one job—they had all the jobs. A 9-to-5?
