Afrikabal Inc. The commercial layer of the AXK protocol.

Founded in 2024 and headquartered at Norrsken Kigali, Afrikabal Inc. is the regulated commercial entity that operates the implementation of the AXK Network protocol.

We sell infrastructure — identity, settlement, compliance, producer onboarding — to institutions across Africa, the Gulf, and Southeast Asia.

The protocol is public. The implementation is ours.

Mission

Built from inside, for inside use.

Africa's commercial infrastructure has been built by outside institutions for outside purposes. We build it from inside, for inside use. Identity that belongs to the holder. Settlement rails owned on the continent. Compliance that meets the standards of European, Gulf, and Asian buyers — and is enforced where the transaction actually happens.

Afrikabal is the commercial vehicle for that work. The protocol is public; the implementation is ours; the value compounds where the goods are produced.

Architecture

Afrikabal is to AXK what Ripple is to XRPL.

AXK Network is the open protocol. Afrikabal Inc. is the regulated entity that builds enterprise products on it, signs the SLAs, and runs the institutional relationships. The protocol anchors on the XRP Ledger.

Operators first, founders second.

Runs the institutional relationships with banks, DFIs, ministries, and commodity exchanges across the continent and into the Gulf. Knows what an MoU costs and what an SLA means.
