Ethereum

Solana

DeFi will undoubtedly enjoy heavy adoption in Africa as the population looks for alternatives to the underwhelming mainstream financial and economic systems. And as this happens, only the most innovative projects, like Solana (SOL) and <a href="https://hedgeup.io">HedgeUp (HDUP)</a>, will be able to tap into the growing crypto market.

<h2 id="strong-a-growing-defi-scene-strong">A Growing DeFi Scene</h2>
Home to the fastest-growing economies in the world, Africa is one of the hottest financial markets. But unfortunately, the continent has been largely underserved by traditional CeFi institutions. It has a fragmented banking and investment scene that has left a good portion of the continent’s population unbanking. 
But things have started to change. The continent is a hub for fintech solutions as startups look to fill the gaps left by conventional financial institutions. And even more exciting is the continent’s shift towards DeFi. 
DeFi is growing fast in Africa. A report by the blockchain data firm Chainalysis shows that despite Sub-saharan Africa having the least cryptocurrency transaction volume of any region, there is a genuine need for crypto in the continent. 
A growing population in Africa is using crypto as an answer to the unfavorable economic conditions of their countries. Reports show that many Africans, unwilling to remain underserved by financial systems, are embracing crypto as a means to trade, save, participate in commerce, and send/receive remittances. 
Africa also enjoys a demographically youthful population that is most welcoming to emerging technologies. Experts believe that all these factors combined give DeFi limitless possibilities in the continent. 
This has naturally made it a target for DeFi projects. Many projects are looking to establish a presence in the African DeFi scene. 
Considering that Africa’s crypto adoption is mostly a result of economic necessity rather than mere speculation, only those projects that offer real solutions will thrive. Of these, Solana and HedgeUp (HDUP) are considered the best positioned to do just that.

<h2 id="strong-solana-s-speed-and-scalability-strong">Solana’s Speed and Scalability</h2>
Solana (SOL) is a blockchain protocol that’s designed to be highly scalable, fast, and secure. Often touted as the Ethereum (ETH)  killer, the network provides a unique combination that allows it to cheaply and efficiently process thousands of transactions per second. 
As such, it&#8217;s an attractive platform for Africa’s DeFi solutions to be built on. Users should be able to complete retail and P2P transactions with the speed and convenience they’re already used to from existing mobile money solutions like Kenya’s M-Pesa and Ghana’s MoMo.

<h2 id="strong-hedgeup-s-alternative-investment-opportunity-strong">HedgeUp’s Alternative Investment Opportunity</h2>
HedgeUp (HDUP) is the world’s first alternative investment trading platform utilizing NFTs. It was built to allow users to fractionally invest in valuable alternative assets worldwide. The project uses NFTs backed by real physical items to allow users to invest in and trade alternative assets, like whiskey, wine, jewelry, diamonds, gold, and watches without having to directly buy the asset. 
This kind of tokenization will make the alternative assets market more accessible to African investors. It provides an excellent opportunity for them to invest in products that are otherwise hard to buy into in the current financial climate. As such, it&#8217;s likely to do well in the growing African DeFi scene.  
HedgeUp’s token, HDUP, which functions as the project’s internal currency, is currently in its presale phase. You can purchase the HDUP tokens at a discounted rate of $0.013. 
Given the project’s immense potential, this rate is bound to increase in the near future. So, interested investors are advised to make the purchase today while the price is still low.
