Akoin is the crypto project of the rapper Akon, and they have just included the tech entrepreneur on their board of advisors, with the aim of recruiting useful talent for the project. 

Crystal has been selected particularly because of her experience 

in building blockchain-based communication tools and decentralized applications. 

Crystal Rose Pierce is a leading tech entrepreneur and investor who has already been included by Forbes in the Top 10 Women in Blockchain, she is also the founder and CEO of Make Sense Labs. 

She has been developing dApps since 2014, leading her company to release the first blockchain-based messenger that supports cryptocurrencies. 

However, she is not exclusively involved with blockchain and cryptocurrencies, as she has founded several companies and foundations in many areas of technology and media, including artificial intelligence, IT and mobile. 

She also is one of the founders of shEOS, a blockchain node manager and mining network managed by women, and is also director of the philanthropic organization she co-founded, Integro Foundation. 

It is thanks to her commitment to philanthropy that she has discovered the benefits of open data initiatives and the positive impact of digital currencies in the development of struggling nations and states.

Crystal said: 

“I’m very excited to be joining as an advisor for Akoin, Their innovative and groundbreaking approach to utilizing blockchain technology in Africa is a glance into the future. I’m enthusiastic about the potential for positive impact across the rising economies of Africa and beyond”.
