It’s an undertaking that can’t be exaggerated: Akon – the American-Senegalese R&B singer, songwriter and producer – is creating a new cryptocurrency called “Akoin.”
As Akon tells it, the forthcoming coin will serve as the currency for a yet-to-be-developed city in the country of Senegal.
The “Akon Crypto City” will occupy a reported 2,000 acres of land gifted to the singer by the president of Senegal and is envisioned to be a “100% crypto-based city with Akoin at the center of transaction life.”
Triple threat
It bears mentioning that part of the enthusiasm and support on social media for Akon has been a long time coming.
Back in 2014, the Grammy-nominated singer started a for-profit company dubbed “Akon Lighting Africa” with the help of his two friends, Thione Niang and Samba Bathily.
