The price of Bitcoin has hit a new all-time high of $68,000

Bitcoin and ether both reached fresh all-time highs, extending their upward trend from the previous day. Bitcoin's price jumped beyond $68,000 at one point, surpassing a previous high set in late October, according to Bloomberg. A rise to $68,521 in the world's most valuable digital currency was followed by a decline to $67,106. It has risen more than 2 percent in the past 24 hours as of 10:30 a.m. local time on Monday. According to Coin Metrics statistics, it is currently 3:00 p.m. ET. Ethereum (ETH), the cryptocurrency that runs on the Ethereum blockchain, reached a new high of $4,840 on Tuesday. It has now broken beyond the $4,800 barrier for the first time. The coin has traded at a price of $4,805, representing a 1.3 percent increase in the last 24 hours. They are part of a bigger rise in the cryptocurrency market, which has reached a fresh high of almost $3 trillion in the last few days. Solana and cardano, the so-called "Ethereum killers," have seen their prices rise by 21 percent and 16 percent, respectively, in the last seven days.

Some analysts anticipate that bitcoin and ether will continue to trend upward in the next weeks, despite the fact that it is difficult to link short-term price fluctuations to any specific event — and cryptocurrency price charts are notoriously volatile.

To boost trade, Africa is simplifying international payment systems

It's hard to transfer money between African countries. The Ghanaian king settled a bill with a Nigerian attorney. His experience highlights a systemic problem impeding Africa's economic growth: high transaction costs and inconvenience. 15% of all imports and exports occur between 55 African countries. 60% of Asian trade is within Asia. 70% in EU. The difficulty of international payments hinders African trade. There are also high tariffs, long border procedures, and congested roads. Proponents of AfCFTA say easing trade restrictions will boost trade, FDI, and economic growth. 50 million people will be lifted out of extreme poverty by 2035 due to the accord's positive impact on real income, which is projected to rise 9.1%.  Another issue: In Africa, currency values fluctuate. From July 2021 to 2022, Ghana's currency fell from 6 to 8. Volatile currencies make financial transactions more costly and risky. To overcome these problems, PAPSS facilitates financial transactions ...

How will Blockchain boost trade in Africa?

Despite a regional economic slowdown in 2020, over a dozen African countries grew last year. Complicated trade rules and lengthy border processes stifle African economies. These long-standing issues need creative solutions. Blockchain is becoming more practical and scalable in developing markets. It has just opened a regulatory "sandbox" for innovative blockchain-based goods in Ghana. Standard Bank has joined Marco Polo, a trade financing network. Here are four ways blockchain may help African trade: 1. Customs The AU-EU trade deal is still in its infancy. Traditional customs bureaucracy prevents SMEs from joining global trade networks. This procedure can be automated and simplified, saving time and money. 2. Traceability Tracking cross-border goods correctly is critical for standard and certification verification.
