    In the past year, the sports industry has ridden the crypto wave without a summit in sight. From ambassador and sponsorship deals with athletes to sports clubs allowing fans to pay for game tickets with crypto, the sports sector seems to have adapted to crypto pretty quickly. 

    In addition, the gaming industry, media, and art industries are also joining this new wave as we gradually but surely enter into a new age of financial freedom. 

    According to an article by Ahmed Shabana, founder of Parkpine Capital, an early-stage venture capital fund – the entertainment industry is poised to reinvent its business functions and facilitate secure, transparent, and traceable transactions with crypto.

    Crypto is progressively becoming a preferred option for the entertainment sector at large and, more specifically, for the music industry.

    Collaborations between crypto and the music industry, which were at first unprecedented, have advanced in recent times as more artists and record labels join the crypto train. A few notable examples are Grammy Award-winning Nigerian artiste Burna Boy and his partnership with Chipper Cash, and prolific South African rapper; Casper Nyovest representing Bitcasino as an ambassador.

    More crypto companies like Roqqu, Luno, and Quidax, to mention a few, are joining the music partnership bandwagon.

    Crypto has even made its way into music videos. In the recent hit “Cryptocurrency” by Kuami Eugene and Rotimi – they explore a futuristic sci-fi world in which they mine cryptocurrency individually, then collaborate to mine it together.

    In this video, leading African crypto exchange and financial platform, Yellow Card is referenced, and a transaction is carried out on the Yellow Card app. 

    A partnership like this is an indicator of just how well crypto and art can be integrated for more robust expressions in the entertainment industry.

    Rachel Akalia, Regional Marketing Manager, West Africa at Yellow Card, says, “We see music as a special purpose vehicle with the potential to drive the message and acceptance of crypto for everyday use, helping the continent gain financial freedom and prosperity.”

    Other than this alliance with Kuami Eugene, Yellow Card has also collaborated with Nigerian musician; Psycho YP, who featured the company in his recently released music video for his Stronger song which features Zlatan.

    The company has other partnerships with Nigerian Urban artist; Odumodu Blvck and Ghanaian artist; Stonebwoy. 

    Through partnerships like this, Yellow Card hopes to encourage youths to embrace a new age of financial opportunities. This is keeping in alignment with its vision of enabling a continent with seamless financial inclusion across borders.

    The possibilities are endless for what can be achieved with cryptocurrency, digitisation and Decentralised Finance in entertainment. From smart contracts to automated payments, better-organised teams across borders, and more, cryptocurrency might be the key to unlocking a greater dimension of how entertainment is created and shared across Africa and the world at large.

    As Kuami says in his song, with cryptocurrency, we’re indeed on a new level. 

  • The African gaming industry is on the cusp of a new era, driven by the soaring popularity of live streaming. From casual enthusiasts to professional e-sports players, gamers across the continent are flocking to live streaming platforms to showcase their skills and engage with their audience. This has given rise to a vibrant and constantly expanding community of gamers throughout Africa.

    The last five years have seen a remarkable transformation in the African gaming industry, with gamers no longer confined to outdated internet cafés. With the proliferation of smartphones and high internet penetration, 95% of gamers on the continent now play from home. And now, with the seismic shift to online streaming, the African gaming scene is poised for explosive growth, creating limitless opportunities for gamers and developers alike. The future of African gaming is here, and it promises to be nothing short of thrilling.

    The Future Of Gaming In Africa is Live Streaming 

    According to a report by Newzoo and Carry1st, the industry recorded a massive uptick in the number of gamers in Sub-Saharan Africa from 77 million in 2015 to 186 million in 2021. This is mainly due to the expansion of internet connectivity, digital technology, and social media, combined with the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. 

    Africa’s gaming industry is experiencing exponential growth and is making a significant impact on the global esports scene. According to Statista, the Games Live Streaming market revenue is projected to reach US$346.00m in 2023, with an estimated 166.00m users by 2027. The impressive numbers aside, African gamers are also gaining global recognition, with top players like Sylvia Gathoni (QueenArrow) and Grant Hinds making a name for themselves. Gathoni was recently listed in Forbes 30 and won the best female player award at the CANOC eSports Series in Guadeloupe, while Hinds has collaborated with top brands such as Red Bull and Xbox and has amassed over 40,000 YouTube subscribers. These talented individuals are leading the way for the growing e-sports movement in Africa. 

    With the African gaming industry only just getting started, the future looks bright for this dynamic and rapidly evolving industry.

    Game On: Empowering Africa’s Next Generation of Esports Champions!

    It is impressive to note that despite the numerous challenges such as limited resources and unreliable internet connections, the gaming industry in Africa is experiencing growth and gaining wider recognition. Game studios are now embracing ownership concepts, offering players the ability to possess and trade in-game characters, while also incorporating African cultural heritage into their games. We cordially invite you to join as we delve into the dynamic and exciting world of African gaming

    One such example is Qene Games, a pioneering game studio that aims to transform Africa’s gaming landscape with award-winning titles such as Kukulu and Gebeta. Kukulu won the 2018 AppsAfrica award for Best Media & Entertainment App, while Gebeta won the prestigious Best App of the Year award in 2020.

    Qene Games is dedicated to supporting African gamers and their unique challenges. That is why they’ve introduced Kinet Live, a feature that could revolutionize how gamers earn with their talent.

    “Live-streaming is the future of gaming, and we want to ensure that African gamers are not left behind,” said Dawit. ” With Kinet Live, we are creating a level playing field where everyone has the opportunity to succeed. And it’s not just limited to pro gamers – anyone with a passion for live streaming can now take advantage of Kinet and earn money by streaming their gameplay.”

    The rise of live-streaming in the African gaming industry is a testament to the ingenuity and creativity of African gamers. With the power of live-streaming, African gamers can now compete on a global stage and showcase their skills to a wider audience

  • Memes about life are the most popular type of meme. Memes are a popular form of humour and have become a primary online entertainment source. They are shared online and can be found in groups, forums, and chat rooms.

    They are an effective way to get a laugh with your coworkers or friends. They help keep the mood light and can be a stress buster when tired, which is relatable to students as they often create and share funny memes about their teachers, tight schedules, lots of homework and paper writing tasks, deadlines, etc.

    Memes have a strong influence on people. They make us happy, bring us together, and bring a smile to our faces.

    Let’s look for the main reasons people love funny memes so much.

    Hilarious memes have a remarkable impact on people’s physical health and life in general

    Memes are primarily fun as they’re relatable. They make us laugh, and laughing impacts the longevity of our lives. Studies show that if you laugh a lot, you decrease stress levels and increase endorphin levels, which make you happy and thriving. In addition, laughing can prevent cardiovascular diseases and make you feel physically strong and energized.

    When you’re feeling down, and life isn’t going your way, a little laughter can be just what the doctor ordered. Here are some funny memes that will make you laugh and remind you that everything will be OK.

    Funny memes are a huge benefit for the mental health

    Psychologists say that laughing improves emotional health, and it’s great if you even smile at a joke because your subconscious mind will pick up the signal that you are happy, and you will feel that way yourself. Memes about life are also a great way to see something positive in everyday hustles and routines and, therefore, prevent depression and apathy.

    Some studies also show that positive memes can be beneficial for people who are struggling with psychiatric conditions. These include anxiety and depression.

    They can also help people understand how to cope with a stressful situation and offer a new perspective. This helps them overcome their fears and feelings of isolation.

    Individuals with psychiatric disorders have been reported to find memes about life humorous and relatable. These memes have also been found to provide social connections for individuals experiencing psychiatric difficulties.

    Amusing jokes, pictures or videos bring people together

    People love funny memes about life because they make us laugh and feel happy. They help us see a different side of a stressful situation and realize we are not alone.

    Such memes are relatable and are a great source of social bonding. They connect people to others facing the same stressors and can help them find humor in their situation.

    Memes about life are an underrated topic of conversation. They are a great way to lighten the mood, make people laugh, and even give you a break from all that serious stuff.

    Memes are also an excellent way to see what others say about your experiences and emotions, making them a natural conduit for communication. They have been proven to improve relationships and even make for a fun icebreaker during a tense situation.

    One of the more critical reasons people love funny memes about life is that they often solve a problem or show the world how to do something previously inconceivable. This is especially true of social media and online forums. The most effective ones will entertain and inspire a slew of new ideas and innovations. They could be the catalyst for the next breakthrough in a field that’s existed for millennia.

    They also help us connect to others around the world and communicate with them. They help us understand and learn about other cultures, as they often have references to other countries or events.

    Summary

    Funny memes about life are a great way to bring humor into any social media group or messaging system. They have many benefits and you can easily share them with your friends, family, or coworkers to lighten their day and have fun together.
