  • Will decentralized system be used for conducting election in africa ?(YES)

  • Will bitcoin suffer set back by going back to $29,000 by 30/12/2022(NO)

  • Will STEEM be use as payment in my country by 2024?(YES)

  • Will ethereum surpass bitcoin by 2022?(NO)

  • will hard fork happen on STEEM before middle of 2022?(NO)


WILL DECENTRALIZED SYSTEM BE USED FOR CONDUCTING ELECTION IN AFRICA BY 2022 ?
(YES)

The electoral process of some african countries has been turned upside down, in africa so many countries in Africa has s suffered deep setback due to political instability where by massive act of corruption,rigging and announcement of false winner.

The role of blockchain technology in Africa nations electoral voting system will improve so many things in Africa and it will eliminate disagreement which can lead to killings and destruction of both individual and government property.

Blockchain technology will help African nations conduct more transparent election provided its been installed well
and it will reduce cost and any attempt to alter any records in the system database will be easily spotted and disqualified.

blockchain technology will be the best option in electoral process in Africa in which I know some of the top African countries will soon adopt the blockchain decentralized system.

Therefore,I will be reaching a conclusion that blockchain is the best system to adopt for electoral system because we have some people that have the mind of do or die which will want to attain that particular post by force, but blockchain technology will not tolerate any form of manipulation and the peoples choose will emerge winner and everybody will be happy, with this African Nation will experience development in other form apart from elections.


WILL BITCOIN SUFFER SET BACK,BY GOING BACK TO $29,000

Bitcoin (BTC) suffered a setback march 2021 which made the crypto community looks as if it's over.
bitcoin went far back to $29,000 from $64,000 and this has been the lowest drop down in bitcoin's history
The causes of the sudden drop down in bitcoin was as a result of some negative headline, from the CEO of Tesla El on musk and the Chinese government new regulations.
and this serve as a catalyst to the drop down.

Though btc is actually gaining back strength as at now bitcoin is at $49,000 and bitcoin is going up to $100,000
by the end of 2022 because more companies are adopting bitcoin as payment and more organization and more countries are adopting bitcoin into their system which will boost bitcoin so much that it can't drop till $29,000.

In conclusion, I see bitcoin getting to $100,000 by the end of 2022, because more eyes are on btc and more investors are coming in to invest on bitcoin though Tesla CEO elon musk made Some negative statement about bitcoin, but as time goes on bitcoin will recover fully.

With these development cardano has gotten so much attention and has risen to the top 5 cryptocurrency, cardano hard fork will benefit Cardano and the entire Cardano community, it was announced some weeks weeks back that the Alonzo hard fork will be launched, and everyone is anticipating toward that day.

QUESTION 4
For you, what will happen to Predictive Markets with blockchain technology? Who will benefit from them?

images (1)_1.png

Predictive market created on blockchain is very nice ideal, though not yet known to so many people.
Gambling and predictive market are almost the same and when both are now built on blockchain is will be well know and so many people will have trust in any gambling company built under blockchain technology.

Blockchain with gambling app will be really cool because all the users of the gambling app will have full privacy to their account and there will be not intermediary in any transaction and this will give betting companies owner opportunity to make more profit and more people will be willing to invest in gambling because they see it very safe.

Conclusively, blockchain technology is growing at a very fast rate in the world because it offer people what they want,
Predictive market with blockchain will soon be known to all the world as a whole.
