And just like the event at Ibadan, the crowning point was the inauguration of the students officially into BCAT Club Uniport Chapter. The legacy of Campus BCAT is the perpetuating impact of the blockchain technology by making sure the buzz about the pervasive impact of the revolutionary blockchain technology doesn’t continue to live in the realms of hype.

Students through the BCAT Clubs in their respective campuses are afforded the opportunities to continue the learning process through active facilitation of classes and workshops while also carrying the torch of innovation through the application of what they have learned in their schools such as conducting Departmental, Faculty or Student Union Government elections on the open and transparent ledger of the blockchain.
And since we are in the era of asset tokenization, through the BCAT Clubs, several regulatory concerns that exist will be exposed to the students through the experts that will come visiting as either lecturers or Club facilitators. This is surely a breath of fresh air to Nigerian students that is set to spread across all of Africa.
With a characteristic spectacular outing at University of Port Harcourt, CryptoTVPlus the national convener of the CampusBCAT movement announces plans to host the event at the prestigious Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU) on the 2nd of November 2019. The month of November is actually super-packed with #CampusBCAT2019, while OAU’s event is slated for 2nd, University of Benin and Covenant University is scheduled to take place on the 9th and 15th November respectively.
