Hey folks. 

One of the leading crypto exchanges in the world, Coinbase has announced has announced a major expansion in the continent of Africa covering 20 countries across Africa. 

With the help of Yellow Card, a well-known stablecoin exchange in Africa, this ambitious project is expected to strengthen blockchain's standing in the country's emerging economies. 

This is said to be signifying a shift in financial accessibility, allowing access to millions of users to USDC and initiating more rapid, cost-effective transactions via Base, Coinbase's decentralized Layer 2 (L2) infrastructure.

Because of this expansion crypto enthusiasts in Africa are even more excited because approximately half of the continent’s population will soon be able to buy USDC directly from the Coinbase Wallet app. 

This move is expected to have an impact in particular on countries like Nigeria and South Africa where the use of cryptocurrency is surging. 

Is this partnership going to revolutionize the remittances and commerce across the continent of Africa? What are your thoughts about this development?
