Domineum Blockchain Solutions, a leading distributed ledger technology company in Africa, took task to popular blockchain education by holding the Blockchain Developers Summit (BDS) on 21 & 22 July in Nigeria’s capital, Abuja.

Themed “Stimulating Blockchain Adoption in Nigeria”, the summit was powered by BSV Blockchain, a distributed data ledger for enterprise-grade applications and services, and supported by National Information Technology Authority (NITDA).

Blockchain Developers Summit (BDS) is an international blockchain event aiming to help startups build solutions that can help address local needs by bringing together developers, startups, government, blockchain enthusiasts, industry and academia, offering exposure to BSV Blockchain resources and networks, and leading to the activation of the BSV Blockchain ecosystem in Africa.

The BDS 2022 Edition welcomed a record number of 1,500 participants, making it the largest Blockchain gathering in Africa. BDS 2022 was hosted over 15 sessions – networking sessions and panel sessions with industry experts – to discuss Blockchain and its adoption in Africa.

BDS aimed to educate, impact and develop attendees with proper knowledge of Cryptocurrency and Blockchain, teaching them to leverage blockchain technology in everyday life.

The two-day event was held at Baze University, Abuja. As an official partner of Domineum Blockchain Solutions, the Industry plus Academia partnership officially launched the Blockchain-AI Lab at the summit. This is the first of its kind in Africa, poised to build and unlock potential by exploring the powerful capabilities BSV Blockchain offers, thereby accelerating blockchain adoption.

Speaking for the vision and motive behind the summit, Local Organising Committee Chairman and Domineum co-founder Mr Mohammed Ibrahim Jega said, “Blockchain is a technology that houses Cryptocurrency and many various ideas.

Domineum Blockchain COO Mr Chima Achu, who gave the welcome address on behalf of the Domineum team, said, “The goal of the summit is to unravel the mysteries behind Blockchain, debunk the myths and reinstate the facts clearly. As well as to provide exposure to youths to the many opportunities in the space.”
