The stock of a little-known Korean game company has soared into the blockchain technology

Stocks of companies based in Korea Wemade's stock price soared by more than 400 percent, resulting in a market value of around $5 billion. MIR4 has been downloaded more than 1 million times from Google's Play Store, and it generated 11.5 billion won (about $10 million) in revenue in just one month, in September. MIR4 is one of the few games built using blockchain technology, and it was produced by a big game company. As cryptocurrencies become more widely accepted in the mainstream, such games are becoming increasingly popular. Players can earn cryptocurrency by converting in-game things into cryptocurrency assets such as Wemix, which is Wemade's proprietary cryptocurrency.

Other Korean game developers have experimented with the technology in the past, but none have had the same level of success as MIR's founder Park Soo-Hyeon.

Wemade generated sales of 63 billion won (about $55 million) in the third quarter of this year, an increase of 167 percent over the same period last year. The majority of the money comes from users in other countries, particularly in Southeast Asia, Europe, North America, and South America, accounting for 54% of total revenue. Park Yong-Hyeon is a Korean video game developer. Park Tae-Kyung is considered to be a pioneer in the field of blockchain-based gaming in South Korea. He believes that by making the genre more accessible and inexpensive to all gamers, it will become a big component of the overall gaming business.

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. Already, blockchain is allowing ethical supply chains for a variety of African goods. Its open-source but secure design makes certificates easy to issue and verify...
