Blast (BLAST) is the governance token of Blast, an Ethereum Layer 2 that offers native yield for ETH and stablecoins by automatically earning staking and T-bill yields for users. Blast attracted massive TVL with its unique native yield model before launching its mainnet and token in 2024. African crypto investors can buy and sell BLAST on Bitget and Bybit.
Crypto is in a legal grey zone in Ethiopia. The National Bank of Ethiopia (NBE) has not banned it, but has not issued formal regulation either. Millions of Ethiopians access it via P2P. Some ISPs block exchange websites — a VPN resolves this. Use reputable platforms and monitor NBE announcements for any changes.
