RE: Some Long-Term Speculations I'm Interested In: AcademyToken, CryptoHunt, and RavenCoin
When I read the name academy token, my immediate thought was that it must be similar to BitDegree (the would-be blockchain based education platform). It is not. It is an academy to create more blockchain developers. It might mean a lot if the instructions come from known blockchain developers who have done exceptional work in the field already. People with Bitcoin, Ethereum, Steem and other notable blockchains background should be an important part of this academy in any capacity in my opinion.
Interesting project and the one that affects our future in many ways. I listened to @aantonop's Blockchain vs Bullshit keynote. I think the academy will help a lot in creating blockchains and not the BS consequence of this amazing technology.
I would keep an eye on what this project does. Seems an interesting one to me.
You answered my question apparently, what a coincidence :-)
I am so glad that I did. Thanks for acknowledging!
Here's what the FAQ says about BitDegree:
I agree, the real-world, hands-on development experience we're collecting should hopefully be part of how we educate the next group of blockchain developers.
Very thoughtful of them to clarify the difference in the FAQs. I was able to guess the difference from your post.
Exciting project!
