Educating the nation on blockchain and digital currencies

To move to Jurgen the CEO and Founder of Xago.io.  Xago leverages the power of mobile, retail networks and blockchain technology to transform the payment industry across Africa reimagining the way money flows, at a fraction of existing cost and settlement times.  The building of a bleeding edge cross border alternative financial and payment system.
