The founder of financial tech company Block Inc., Jack Dorsey announced he is collaborating with the rapper Jay-Z by launching a Bitcoin Academy in Brooklyn. The Bitcoin Academy’s mission aims to empower and provide education to the region. The project’s website further details that residents of Marcy House, located in Brooklyn, New York will be eligible for free courses and other benefits like internet data plans. I think this is the motivation we need to help create awareness in their various countries and educate our people on the benefits of cryptocurrencies.
Thoughts?
https://news.bitcoin.com/education-is-power-jack-dorsey-and-jay-z-launch-a-bitcoin-academy-in-brooklyn/?webview=1 Good initiative! But I believe the impact will be more if crypto focused courses can be provided here instead of just focusing to bitcoin related courses. Blockchain could be an attractive addition to their curriculum as well where budding programmers will get education.
Good education can have great impact on anything and education about cryptocurrencies is the need of the hour. Not only for the programmers but also for those people who are skeptical about the cryptocurrency, can also be benefitted here.
