Established on January 28, 2021, the Blockchain Industry Coordinating Committee of Nigeria (BICCoN) emerged from stakeholder discussions initiated on January 13, 2021, to address crypto scams. BICCoN aims to maximize blockchain opportunities while mitigating threats across industries through collaborative efforts.
The interplay of opportunities and threats presented by blockchain technology applications in varied measures across various industries inform the need for stakeholders to work together towards maximizing the opportunities while mitigating the threats.
This is where the idea of an intercommunity working group for Nigeria’s emerging blockchain industry comes in. The idea was initiated on 13 January 2021 after a stakeholder engagement on the need to check the proliferation of crypto scams in the country. It eventually became the Blockchain Industry Coordinating Committee of Nigeria (BICCoN) on 28 January 2021, reflecting the status and broader scope of the intercommunity working group.
To provide an inter-community approach to blockchain technology adoption towards achieving a more collaborative, innovative, and safer blockchain ecosystem in Nigeria.
