It's good to know that gamers in Africa can now send and receive small amounts of BTC while playing classic titles like Counter-Strike.
I love seeing how GameFi is expanding worldwide, even though I wasn't at first a huge supporter of these types of games, but now I play several of them – Axie, MagicCraft, and Splinterlends.
I read that Zebedee has partnered with the crypto exchange platform Bitnob to offer payments and gaming reward options in Africa using the Bitcoin Lightning Network.
Within the partnership, African users can earn Bitcoin through Zebedee-powered apps and games.
From what I found out, Zebedee's offering serves as a second layer in games that allows developers to replace vague in-game points rewards with satoshis, the smallest denomination of Bitcoin. Through the partnership with Bitnob, these in turn can be converted to a local currency like the Nigerian naira.
In general, Africa has been a growing area of interest for the Lightning Network, partly due to the LN's ability to facilitate microtransactions.
