Will never be successful. The Petro dollar is to strong
Good. Screw mainstream fraud currencies.

Not only an artist but a businessman

He gave electricity to 80 million people
Having a futuristic city, this nigga just turned into the black panther
Akon building his own Wakanda. Now that's what's up.
Man just makes me proud to be Senegalese. Each one of us from Africa must work hard to build some innovation!
“Somalia”
“Detroit”
“Chicago”

Inspired!! Dealing the loss of xxxtentacion has been very difficult! This has given me hope for the future! He would love this !! Miss you 4 real.
Salute AKON !!
Look out for allegations of rape to destroy his character.
Real life black panther
Nice
they should of done this long ago. I'll admit on first reading this title I couldnt help but laugh cause its so audacious but if its a currency for Africa that changes things but crypto currency when the country has nearly only 13 percent of population with internet access idk..
He said "I come up with the concepts, and let the geeks figure it out". Go to the Akoin site, scroll to the bottom and see who these geeks are SMH. If this is supposed to save Africans and their economy, how come this currency is NOT ran by Africans? Don't get me wrong, Im sure these Chief Exec Caucasians are at the top of their game, and have the art and development of crypto-currency mastered. But no matter how many Africans this "helps", you obviously know where the real perpetual WEALTH is going. And in this secular world we live in, WEALTH is the savior.
A what?
LEGEND WOW AKON WILL GO DOWN IN HISTORY AS AN ICON
How do you know you’re in a bubble? When rappers like creates Akoin to help build a city
Bout to make his own Akonomy
Check out https://cryptopiece.com/
2000 acres is only 3 square miles.
Now everything black which is good will be equated to black panther.
Its should have been named 'COINvicted'.
hes gonna go to jail when the SEC tracks him down and charges him for selling unlicensed securities
Nice video
Akoin? Wakanda coin is that?
this guy.. lol.. keep your eyes on em… go to my youtube page and watch these… Akon.. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCYUs55v3YUPIaZiuRDGIPTA?view_as=subscriber lol
This is why I never respected Jay-z more than anything other than a rapper. He has way more money than Akon but isn't doing shit for anyone. He talks so much about the community in his raps but barely does anything of significance. We don't need donations or charities, we need initiatives and a solid investment into our futures.
This guy is a boss
Pioneer much?

Hah 7 months later he was depressed and took a suicide 🤦🏾♂️ right?
Akon Be Careful with the European Elite and Babaylon they will not want you to have a Better currency than the West and Chinise That own America

WTF is up with people and this Cryptocurrency bullshit. Im trying to buy a graphics card for gaming for a good deal but everything is just inflated in price!!
Fuck it ill invest .. Akon had lady gaga, t pain and some other incredible artists signed… dont sleep on akon
Say what you want about Akon….he's been doing DOPE SHIT for the past few years now….black excellence. 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Hold this L Frazier
Our people have become weak no unity no vision. we have become satisfied with what they give us rather than what belongs to us Africa could become a super power only if more of us had the balls and intelligence.
I will buy during the ico. It has enough press and funding that it will at least surge for a moment. If it actually picks up in Africa its definitely worth holding onto.
akoin ?
wakanda coin is akoin ?😂😂 lol
I'm negl i thought of african cryptocurrency back in last august. Either way i'm only 18 idc, at least its out there…
Names I was recommending for the cryptocurrency:
Koinvict,
Smack Dough (reference to the song Smack That),
Freedough (reference to the album Freedom),
AKaChing,
Big Dough (reference to the song Big Dog),
The Sweet eSpend (reference to the song The Sweet Escape),
or
200Bank (pun on 2008, the year Akon was at his peak)
