After the announcement of a new course, the number of applications from potential students exceeded expectations so much that the university administration doubled the size of the flow – more than a hundred students were enrolled in the course.
The blockchain and cryptocurrency knowledge of teachers and administrations of American universities is not only theoretical.

We are talking about money from the so-called endowment funds – donation funds replenished by philanthropists, former graduates, etc.
There is no exact information yet about the course fee, however, it is known for sure that it will not be for free.
Coinbase Earn
The well-known cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase provides an opportunity for its users to obtain the necessary knowledge to earn digital assets. At the start of a program, during the training, students had the chance to earn 0x tokens for each webinar. But today the list has expanded considerably, now it includes Dai, EOS, Zcash, Basic Attention Token and Stellar Lumens. For the study of information about these coins can be obtained from $ 6 to $ 50.
It is worth noting that the course is based on the platform of the well-known startup Earn.com, which allows users to receive an award in the form of coins for completing various tasks. Currently, courses are available for citizens of more than 100 countries. As part of the program, the company intends to pay users cryptocurrency worth more than $100 million.
