We at Extra Credit, are the first company to start empowering people to learn about cryptocurrencies. It is a twofold effort with Bitcoin Homework, the new venture combines blockchain technology with educational programs designed to teach people about cryptocurrencies, even as they share in the digital payment for perhaps the first time.
The success of cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum has increased awareness of the benefits that blockchain technology offers. As a result, many industries are scrambling to adopt blockchain technology. However, they are unable to get skilled blockchain experts to help them grow. Even firms like Deloitte, PwC, and KPMG are struggling to get enough employees for their blockchain departments. This is because there is no formal place where individuals can get the prerequisite skills to work in the industry.
Extra Credit provides a solution to this problem by providing a platform where students can get knowledge on Bitcoin and other blockchain technologies. The platform is suitable for novices who are getting an introduction into the cryptocurrency world or experts who want to keep their skills sharp. The platform incentivizes learning by offering students an opportunity to earn XTRA tokens when they complete courses or achieve good scores in any of the competitions. Contributors will also earn by providing modules that students can undertake.
It also offers an opportunity for investors to earn through the multiple revenue streams of the firm. They include course commission fees, paid promotions and paid sponsorships. Users can also earn through the affiliate program on the platform. You can get additional information on the website or any of the social media pages. Join Extra Credit as we seek to provide a platform that will increase the number of cryptocurrency and blockchain experts required to push Satoshi Nakamoto’s vision forward.

I like the concept. Whitepaper is a bit light - more like a Lightpaper. But the vision is really strong. Team is a bit small - needs advisers and some more staff to give more credibility. But all in all, the concept of rewarding people for learning is solid. As someone who has a Blockchain education company I can see this working in some form or fashion.
