Bitcoin for All African: A Vision for Financial Freedom is a project that aims to increase the adoption and use of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies in Africa as a way to empower individuals and communities, improve financial inclusion and freedom, and foster economic growth and innovation.
The project is based on the idea that Africa has a huge potential for crypto adoption due to its underdeveloped infrastructure, high inflation rates, strict capital controls, and large remittance flows. By using Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, Africans can access a global and decentralized financial system that is more accessible, affordable, transparent, and secure than traditional banking systems.
The project also seeks to provide education, training, and support for African entrepreneurs, developers, and users who want to leverage Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies for their personal or professional goals. The project collaborates with various stakeholders, such as local crypto communities, exchanges, platforms, NGOs, and governments, to create awareness, trust, and regulation around crypto in Africa.
The project is inspired by the success stories of some African countries that have embraced crypto innovation and growth, such as Nigeria, Kenya, South Africa, and Tanzania. The project hopes to replicate and scale these models across the continent and beyond. The project also draws inspiration from Sango, a blockchain infrastructure project designed to modernize and uplift the economy of the Central African Republic using the newest and most innovative technologies.
The project’s vision is to make Bitcoin for All African a reality by 2030. By then, the project hopes to see millions of Africans using Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies for their daily transactions, savings, investments, remittances, donations, and more. The project also hopes to see hundreds of African startups and businesses using crypto to create value, solve problems, and generate wealth for themselves and their communities. The project also hopes to see Africa becoming a leader and a hub for crypto innovation and development in the world.
Yes, Bitcoin has been approved as legal tender in the Central African Republic (CAR), making it the first country in Africa and only the second in the world to do so.

I wonder if you could answer this question? A few months back there was a report that the Central African Republic had abandoned bitcoin and Sango. It is hard to find updated, reliable information on this. Is bitcoin still an official currency in CAR?
