Earlier this week, Kenya's National Treasury issued draft regulations permitting companies to raise funds by issuing digital tokens, with mandatory approvals from the Central Bank of Kenya (CBK) as the licensing authority and the Capital Markets Authority (CMA) for investor protection. Everything will be tokenized. What will you tokenize?

Every few weeks, James Mugambi meets another freelancer who has done the work but can’t touch their money. Payments from Upwork or PayPal arrive late, sit in limbo for weeks, or vanish into a maze of bank partners and compliance checks, while rent and school fees don’t wait. techcabal.com/2026/03/18/hur…

Senegal’s president casually updates his social profile pictures to include the AFCON trophy behind him. How do you say “come and get it if you can” in Wolof?

Building a fintech at this scale isn't a joke. It would be very unfair and ungodly for someone to make such allegations without evidence.

Just when I was about to try this Fintech app, a significant number of tweeps started bathroom allegations against them. Now they are struggling like our middle east big daddy to prove that he's alive. In finance, the first currency in your exchange must be trust. What happened?

@RayyanKW I'm a promoter of sum positive innovation. It's pretentious to hold onto one negative review on Play Store, as the only source of credible evidence against them. There's a whole industry built on gamed reviews. I celebrate them as entrepreneurs pioneering beneficial use cases.

@BasedKago I guess you're from the company or a promoter. Um, it'd be better if you pretend to address the claim not deflecting but good for you, your target audience is below your IQ.

Read the bios of commenters and you'll realize they are mostly not real humans. It's a classic bot attack likely from a low self-esteem competitor... you'll realize the negative comments are coordinated and none has shown actual evidence of a negative experience.

@BasedKago I was to actually today but the comments made me a little bit skeptical.
