With Africa's rise in share of global Bitcoin mining hashrate now just under 4%, the question is how this hash power is being used and by whom 📌 In my latest for Forbes Crypto, I look into Africa's "Hashrate Exfiltration Problem" and future outlook. "Put simply, “hashrate exfiltration” is the use of a region's hashrate by a foreign entity or power in furtherance of its interests, often at the region's expense.

"Africa’s resilience against all these odds will set the global template for building resilient money and energy infrastructure, ensuring a future of hope and abundance for all." https://www.forbes.com/sites/digital-assets/2025/11/22/africas-bitcoin-mining-hashrate-exfiltration-problem/
