EasyA, a pioneering Web3 education platform and incubator, has recently achieved a significant milestone by surpassing 1 million developers within its ecosystem.
In conjunction with this achievement, EasyA has unveiled plans for a Polkadot education initiative. This initiative aims to guide developers interested in mastering the blockchain network and ultimately deploying decentralized applications on the Polkadot platform.
Phil Kwok, co-founder and CEO of EasyA, highlighted the platform’s expansive developer community as evidence of the burgeoning interest in Web3. “Reaching one million developers underscores the growing demand for Web3 education,” remarked Kwok.
In parallel, 2024 has witnessed a resurgence of interest in Web3, cryptocurrencies, and digital assets, spurred largely by developments originating from the United States. These include the launch of a Bitcoin (BTC) exchange-traded fund (ETF), a current market upsurge, the approval of Ether (ETH) ETFs, and cryptocurrencies becoming focal points in the 2024 presidential campaign.
As enthusiasm for blockchain technology intensifies, educational initiatives tailored for both software developers and the general electorate have emerged. Noteworthy among these initiatives is the Bitcoin Voter Project, a nonprofit organization educating American voters about decentralized currencies.
Earlier this June, MultiversX, a distributed blockchain network, in collaboration with Cornell University’s online program, introduced a joint blockchain educational course for students. Participants completing the “Blockchain Essentials Program” will receive certification and may pursue further mentorship opportunities with MultiversX.
The 2024 U.S. presidential election has propelled cryptocurrencies into the national spotlight, catalyzed by remarks from former President Donald Trump. He has transformed what was once a niche topic into a central campaign issue, aiming to resonate with the crypto industry.
Trump recently engaged with representatives from prominent Bitcoin mining firms, including CleanSpark, Riot Platforms, and TeraWulf. Shortly after their meeting, these firms established the Blockchain Voter Project.
Trump has positioned himself as the favored candidate among single-issue crypto voters, pledging to halt President Biden’s perceived “war on crypto” should he secure reelection in November.
