- COTI’s partnership with the Africa Tokenization Council positions it as a leader in driving blockchain adoption and asset tokenization across Africa.
- The growing demand for blockchain-powered cross-border payments and tokenized assets could boost adoption for both COTI and Stellar (XLM) in emerging markets.
COTI, a leading blockchain infrastructure provider, has announced its partnership with the newly established Africa Tokenization Council (ATC). This initiative aims to accelerate blockchain and artificial intelligence (AI) adoption across Africa and the Middle East, uniting African officials, global blockchain leaders, and investors to drive innovation and investment in the region.
Africa Tokenization Council’s Vision
The Africa Tokenization Council (ATC) is focused on fostering blockchain-powered financial inclusion and real-world asset (RWA) tokenization across Africa. As Markets Insider reported:
It is the stance of the Africa Tokenization Council, thanks to the direct involvement of high-level figures (Government, investors, and practitioners) and esteemed Saudi Arabian Leadership, alongside COTI leaders and best-of-class compliant privacy technology that the same leapfrogging pattern will persist in the RWA and Tokenization space.
The ATC will host a series of symposia and roundtable discussions throughout 2025, starting with an April 29 event in Dubai, bringing together African governmental blockchain initiatives, global investors, and technical experts.
The ultimate goal is to build a thriving tokenization ecosystem across the Middle East, North Africa (MENA), and Africa, ensuring blockchain adoption in financial and governmental sectors.
COTI’s Role in the Initiative
As a key blockchain infrastructure provider, COTI will offer its expertise in fast, scalable, and privacy-focused solutions to support Africa’s tokenization and regulatory frameworks. Its technology addresses data privacy and compliance concerns, which are critical for real-world asset (RWA) tokenization in Africa.
Africa has rapidly embraced blockchain technology, driven by fast-growing demographics, high mobile penetration, and an increasing need for financial inclusion. This makes the continent an ideal market for digital asset tokenization.
Market Performance of COTI and XLM
COTI’s involvement with the ATC has positively impacted its market performance. As of today, COTI is trading at $0.0807, with intraday movements between $0.0752 and $0.0815, reflecting investor optimism surrounding its strategic expansion.
Meanwhile, CNF recently highlighted that Stellar (XLM) is charting a bullish pattern, with predictions suggesting it could surge 30%. As Stellar plays a major role in blockchain adoption in emerging markets, its mission aligns with ATC’s efforts to drive financial inclusion and tokenized digital assets.
With initiatives like COTI’s council gaining traction, the demand for blockchain-powered cross-border payments and tokenized assets is expected to grow significantly, potentially benefiting networks like Stellar (XLM).
At the time of writing, Stellar (XLM) is trading at $0.3043, reflecting a 3.47% increase in the past 24 hours and a 4.23% gain over the past week. See XLM price chart below.
