- President Touadéra initiates a major blockchain project.
- Land tokenization begins in June 2025.
- Project uses CAR meme coin for transactions.
President Faustin-Archange Touadéra announced the Central African Republic will tokenize over 1,700 hectares of land on the Solana blockchain starting in June 2025.
The project exemplifies CAR’s commitment to blockchain advancement, impacting national and local economies.
The Central African Republic plans to tokenize land west of Bossongo using the Solana blockchain. This initiative spearheaded by President Faustin-Archange Touadéra, uses the national meme coin CAR and aligns with the country’s broader digital asset policy.
“We are giving everyone access to the riches of our land. In other words, we are transforming them into equally valuable and important digital assets through an unprecedented new administrative and economic movement.” – President Faustin-Archange Touadéra
The land tokenization project is anticipated to leverage Solana’s capabilities, with segments designated for potential resource extraction like gold or diamond mining. The initiative follows CAR’s previous adoption of Bitcoin as legal tender in 2022.
The economic landscape of CAR may see shifts in its GDP composition as digital currency projects integrate with the local economy. Market volatility is expected, especially for the CAR coin, given its connection to tangible national resources.
The use of meme coins in land transactions could influence global blockchain trends, offering insights into future public sector blockchain applications. Regulatory frameworks and advanced blockchain integration pose potential challenges and opportunities for this initiative.
