From the data gathered at the workshop, it is clear that a lots of people in Africa and around the world still do not know much about blockchain and cryptos to talk of Steem and Steemit. Therefore, this is a special call on everyone to take it as a personal task to talk to people in your local community about this new technology and the new gifting economy that comes with it just like and others did on Saturday.
More report about this particular event will be up soon from the Steemjet media department.
