RE: Venezuela and Nigeria Climb the ranks for Steemit.com traffic
Think about it this way, Nigeria has a reputation for online scams, which is why Nigerian credit cards are considered high risk. That makes it harder for honest Nigerians to engage with the online economy -> it is a place with a real need for cryptocurrency, where there are no chargebacks.
Fair point.... hence why I said I was cautious about stereotypes.
Nigeria also has the largest population on Africa, maybe makes growth there less remarkable.
V. Difficult question to answer for any population: what motivates people to join the platform!

To a degree but web ranks accounts for that fairly well. It's a much bigger element for China, India and the US where the online population is absolutely enormous, but Nigeria is in the top 10 online populations so it is a factor somewhat.
Thank You
