  • Is Bitcoin the solution to keeping your savings “safe” as financial institutions continue to close down?

    Is Bitcoin the solution to keeping your savings “safe” as financial institutions continue to close down?

    According to reports, a massive ‘clean up’ of Ghana’s banking system has left tens of thousands of people wondering where their savings have gone. The crackdown has reduced the number of lenders by a third and resulted in the closure of 23 savings and loans firms. It also triggered a run on fund managers which caused a selling spree and mass liquidation of holdings.

    An estimated $1.6 billion has been wiped out, which is over a third of the assets that private fund managers supervise for retail and institutional investors. Ghana’s primary financial regulator, the Securities and Exchange Commission, has increased pressure on at least 20 fund managers it suspects of violating the rules.

    The SEC has blocked asset managers from receiving any new investments as they may be used to pay out existing investors. The massive run on holdings has left as many as 70,000 people desperately seeking answers as to where their savings have gone. Lord Mensah, a senior finance lecturer at the University of Ghana, commented;

    It’s cutting across all the finance houses and when it happens like that the government needs to step in to build confidence again. There’s nothing we can do apart from making sure that we create that necessary environment to regain investors’ confidence again.

    The issue Ghana faces is more about having adequate system and controls in place to ensure that there is no room for such things to happen.

    Bitcoin is The Solution

    Crypto industry observer ‘Rhythm Trader’ said that financial management should not need a middleman and bitcoin, with its ever-expanding network, is the answer.

    The savings of tens of thousands wiped-out overnight. This is why saving your wealth should be simple and not need a middleman. Bitcoin fixes this.

    Many would argue that bitcoin’s volatility is keeping the masses at bay, coupled with the fact that it is a high-risk investment. But for thousands of Ghanaians, what they perceived to be traditional investments have proved to be a much higher hazard.

    Ecommerce shops in Ghana are now getting much better and powerful. With the increase in demand for digital products and the rise in peoples’ trust in the online business, a lot for online shops has been created.

    Today, people feel ease to key their credit cards on the internet stores to purchase any goods they want with a high percentage believe that they will get their products. We have seen the coming into being of many online shops in Ghana for the past years. Each day, new Ghanaian online shops are being created and these stores offer a wide variety of products that anyone from Ghana and beyond can buy have it shipped to wherever he/she stays in Ghana.

    The like of Jumia and that of Kikuu has been the talk of the day. Most people feel like these two popular stores are the only shops in Ghana that offer great products at a cheaper price. But little do they know there are others that can compete with these stores. In this post, we are going to look at these Ghanaian owned online shops you can buy from. So without wasting further time lets dive to the point.

    Below are some of the online stores you can buy from in Ghana:

    • Jumia
    • Kikuu
    • Zoobashop
    • Superprice
    • Melcom Ghana

    Now let’s look at these sites in details. What they sell and how you can purchase from the site.

    Jumia Ghana

    Jumia is currently one of the leading online shops in Africa selling all categories of products. It has operations in almost all the Africa countries including Ghana. Jumia Ghana has grown to the stage where all their products can easily be accessed from every corner of the country.

If you are from the capital city, you can use the Jumia food section to order food and get it delivered to your location within the city.

    Kikuu

    Kikuu is a Chinese based store with operations in Ghana. Kikuu has been one of my favourite stores for online shopping. the products offer on this shopping site are amazing because of the price, the time taken to get the goods in Ghana, and the payment method used for buying items. A lot of people have fallen for this site also.

    The Kikuu shop is well patronized by students and unemployed graduates. Most students use this site for their benefit. I got to know of this site way back in 2016 when I was in the university through a female friend. This friend of mine by then knew of this shop which she uses to make some decent amount of money on campus.

    During that time, the store was not all that popular among the students. So most people who were aware of it bought products at cheaper prices and then sold them to their colleague students at a profit margin. What makes Kikuu the best is the fact that they have their agents all over the regions and district capitals of Ghana.

    Once you shop on this store, you are given a tracking page most especially when you use the app. With the tracking, you get to know the status of your order at any checkpoint.

    Zoobashop

    Another great e-commerce shop in Ghana that has been in the system for some time now is the Zoobashop.

    It offers products ranging from home appliance, phones, groceries, food and drinks, beauty, fashion, baby products, books & games, kids and toys. This site was once among and still belong to the largest market online shop in Ghana.
