We are proud to announce that Ayobami-Akanbi Fareed has been appointed as our Head of Operations & Strategy. Fareed is a veteran of Africa’s crypto and fintech scene, known for his visionary approach to marketing, education, and user growth in the emerging markets. His arrival comes at a pivotal moment as Bankii accelerates its mission to empower financial inclusion in Africa through blockchain-powered solutions. With Fareed on board, we are confident in taking the next steps toward our bold vision.
Fareed’s career is a testament to his passion for the Web3 ecosystem. Early on, he joined FTX Africa’s expansion team, focusing on content and community initiatives. In that role, he helped educate and onboard users across the continent , from university students in Nigeria to crypto communities in Ghana, Kenya, and South Africa. FTX was instrumental in Africa’s crypto boom, processing billions of dollars in local transactions each month and Fareed played a key part in making that platform accessible to new users.
In addition to his startup work, Fareed has been active in Web3 media. He has authored Hundreds of articles for crypto publications and collaborated with web3 media platforms helping to deliver unbiased blockchain news and education. His articles on topics like African crypto regulations have earned him a reputation as a clear, insightful communicator. In every role, Fareed has demonstrated exceptional content strategy and go-to-market skills.
Importantly, Fareed has also contributed directly to Bankii’s journey. Prior to this promotion, he served as Bankii’s Content and Communication Manager, aligning our messaging with the needs of African users. This insider perspective on Bankii’s platform and mission means he can hit the ground running in his new leadership role.
We’re thrilled to have Fareed helm our operations and strategy because his experience matches Bankii’s ambitions perfectly. Bankii’s founding mission is to solve financial inclusion and cross-border payment challenges in emerging markets through blockchain. Fareed’s deep knowledge of these markets and proven track record will help accelerate our growth. He understands firsthand why Nigerians, Ghanaians, Kenyans and South Africans are adopting crypto – often due to high inflation and limited banking access, and he knows how to communicate solutions effectively in these contexts.
Fareed will be instrumental in refining Bankii’s go-to-market strategy. His expertise in content and campaign execution means Bankii’s messaging will be sharper and our user education even stronger.
Together with the Bankii team, he plans to leverage partnerships and local insights to build brand trust and user bases in target markets like Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya and South Africa. His appointment also signals Bankii’s commitment to Web3 leadership, blending visionary crypto strategy with real-world fintech usability.
Looking ahead, Fareed is focused on expanding Bankii’s footprint across Africa and beyond. He shares our vision of bringing more people into the digital economy. This means not only growing our user base, but also educating communities about decentralized finance (DeFi) and how it can preserve wealth and facilitate affordable remittances. By customizing Bankii’s offerings to local needs, he aims to make our hybrid finance solutions as impactful as possible.
Bankii’s strategy is to roll out products like the Bankii Card and digital asset services in markets with rapid crypto adoption. Under Fareed’s leadership, we will continue to innovate, enhancing the Bankii app, launching new features, and strengthening partnerships , so that anyone, anywhere can manage and grow their money safely and seamlessly. His forward-thinking approach to operations and strategy will be key to scaling those efforts.
As Fareed steps into his new role, Bankii is more energized than ever. His arrival marks the beginning of an exciting chapter. Together, we look forward to breaking new ground in crypto financial inclusion across emerging markets

At Bankii, transparency is more than a value, it’s a commitment. A commitment to our community, our partners, and to everyone who’s believed in our vision from day one. While the road hasn’t been perfectly smooth, it’s one we’re proud to be on, and we want to bring you along for every part of it.
Today, we’re sharing a clear and honest update on the journey of the BKNY token, what’s worked, what hasn’t, and most importantly, what comes next.
Last year, we launched a three-phase presale for BKNY. The goal was simple: onboard early believers, raise the resources needed to scale, and build a strong tokenholder base.
We’ve taken the lessons to heart. And instead of forcing what isn’t working, we’ve chosen to pivot and focus on execution and delivery.
Despite the mixed presale results, BKNY is moving forward with real momentum.
As part of our product rollout, we’ve started testing the Bankii Card, a major step forward in our mission to create borderless, usable finance across Africa and beyond.
This isn’t just testing, it’s co-creation with our community.
We’re not here to play short-term games. We’re here to build long-term value. Even through presale challenges and shifting markets, we’ve continued delivering:
To every token holder, tester, contributor, or critic, thank you. Your involvement shapes what we build, how we communicate, and what we become.
We’re not perfect. But we’re present, and we’re persistent.
BNKY is not just a token, it’s the heartbeat of a financial future that’s open, accessible, and African-first. And while we’ve had setbacks, we’re more committed than ever to making it real.
Let’s keep building, together.
With purpose,
— The Bankii Team.
We’re thrilled to share that the long-awaited $BKNY token claim is now officially LIVE! This marks a major milestone in our journey, and we’re excited to begin this next phase with you , our valued community and early supporters.
Whether you participated in our presale or joined us via IEO, this post will walk you through how to claim your tokens, what to expect next, and how to get support if needed.
If you participated in the Bankii IEO on P2B Exchange, claiming your tokens is simple:
➡️ Log into your account on P2B Exchange
➡️ Navigate to your dashboard
➡️ Follow the instructions to claim your $BKNY tokens directly
This process is now live and fully active — your tokens are ready for collection!
We’ve already started distributing tokens to all eligible presale participants who submitted valid SPL-compatible wallet addresses. If you’ve received your tokens , welcome aboard .

Launching the $BKNY token has been a journey, and it wouldn’t be possible without your support, feedback, and belief in what we’re building.
We’re laying the foundation for a more inclusive financial future , and you’re part of it from Day One.
Big things are coming.
Let’s build together. 💙
