On the Techpoint Africa Podcast, we discussed Ghana’s bid for a digital currency and Kenya Power’s plans to enable customers to share electricity units.

In Ghana, the Bank of Ghana has piloted the eCedi in Sefwi Asafo, a rural part of the country and joins the likes of Nigeria in creating a digital currency.

Over in Kenya, plans are underway to allow users to share their electricity bills. If you’ve shared your data with a friend, you understand this.
