To me huu ni moto wa kuotea mbari.I guess if i can make money within the realm of the known i have no business risking venturing into uncharted frontiers.

This fear of the unkwown won't make you wealthy. You risk, you learn.
Now if Kenya were to be among the countries taking this seriously instead of a blanket ban by people in their desks with little knowledge (and appreciation) of the tech behind bitcoin. That would be truly ground breaking.
As for the volatility, have a look at each stock in NSE from 2010 too and compare.
E.G .
- KQ was trading at 45.00 now at 4.60 [395 million units traded within the period]
- Mumias was at 9.75 now at 1.60 [1.5 billion units traded within the period]
- Safaricom was trading at 4.70 now at 16.20 [16 billion units traded within the period]
- Unga was trading at 11.00 now at 35 [23 million units traded within the period]
And we are in a bear market!
