A slick QR code check-in kept things digital, while a social media challenge gave everyone a chance to win 10 USDT and exclusive hampers by sharing their experience online.
Chang, OKX Regional Director, opened the floor with a keynote titled “OKX: Powering the Future of Finance in Africa.” His message was clear: Africa’s potential in the crypto world is massive, and OKX is investing in its future.
Aditya, OKX’s BD Operations Manager, led a live walk-through of the OKX app from account setup to advanced features, capped with a Q\&A to address real user needs. This was followed by a session with Seun Orolu on OKX P2P and OKX PAY, demystifying everyday crypto transactions.
Keeping the energy high, the “Two Truths and a Lie” game returned with a crypto remix. Winners bagged OKX swag, including water bottles and totes. Later, Wilson, an OKX ambassador, hosted a Kahoot quiz testing guests on all things crypto, with the fastest fingers grabbing cool prizes.
Seun returned to highlight OKX’s affiliate program, breaking down how users could earn passive income through referrals and content creation. Tips on building a crypto side hustle hit home with a crowd eager to monetize Web3.
The day’s standout moment came during a fireside chat with OKX leaders; Chang, Joshua, and Seun, discussing crypto adoption across Africa. With honest insights and open questions from the audience, it was a powerful conversation on community and opportunity.
The day closed with the announcement of the social media challenge winners, a group photo, and a laid-back dinner. More than just an event, the OKX Nairobi Meetup was a celebration of Africa’s role in shaping the global crypto movement.
The future of finance is digital, and if Nairobi’s energy is anything to go by, Africa isn’t just joining the crypto revolution. It’s leading it.
