Leverage
“Whereas most technologies tend to automate workers on the periphery doing menial tasks, blockchains automate away the center. Instead of putting the taxi driver out of a job, blockchain puts Uber out of a job and lets the taxi drivers work with the customer directly.”
– Vitalik Buterin, co-founder, Ethereum.
SANBA leverages the power of the collective by using the blockchain ecosystem as a lobbying platform to tackle issues blocking blockchain adoption in South Africa.
