Whitebit proposes using remittances and tokenization for transactions in Ghana

WhiteBIT's Ghana country lead Fred Frimpong said at the Africa Virtual Asset Summit (AVAS 2026) in Accra that the exchange wants Ghana to expand crypto use beyond trading into international remittances, real-world asset tokenization and property ownership verification. The company argued that adoption in Ghana is only beginning and that the opportunity lies in using digital assets to support businesses, widen investment access and make financial services more efficient. The push matters because it frames crypto as financial infrastructure rather than a trading product, and it comes as exchanges compete for share in African markets. What to watch next is whether Ghana's regulators and local partners move to support tokenization and remittance use cases, and whether WhiteBIT builds out services around them.
