Hello Everyone,
This is Andrius from BitDegree with our weekly news!
As our token sale date approaches BitDegree team works around the clock to ensure best partnerships and stable development of the platform.
Today I’m happy to announce that two more brilliant advisors are now on BitDegree team — Roberto Santana and James Scarborough.
Roberto Santana, from Coursera is an amazing addition to our team. For the last couple of years Roberto has been the Product Management Growth Lead at Coursera. As you probably already know, Coursera is one of the frontrunners in the Massive Open Online Courses industry. Roberto joined our team, because he knows that BitDegree has features that other platforms don’t — blockchain and smart incentives that will solve today’s extremely small average Massive Open Online Courses completion rate of 5%.
If you saw our last weeks video, you already know about our meeting with Stanford’s PhD. James Scarborough. His main focus of studies is bringing gamified experience to classrooms and workspaces. And today I would like to announce that showing a huge interest and belief in the future of BitDegree led him to become our gamification advisor.
One more great news from BitDegree that tomorrow, on November 14th, we’ll be participating in d10e — the leading conference of decentralization in Davos, Switzerland. We will participate in the ICO Pitch Competition, there we’ll compete with 26 more promising ICOs and will present our idea to the Blockchain Investors Consortium.
So wish us good luck and we hope to bring you great news after the competition. If you are participating in d10e, come and say hi to us and if you have any questions, let’s meet and have a live discussion.
The third announcement — our Bounty program has been updated. BitDegree token Smart Contract is now open-sourced on Github and you can participate in the bug bounty program. We invite all developers to investigate it carefully and if you find any bugs, notify us and get generous rewards in tokens.
Also, check our pilot course on solidity.bitdegree.org. It was updated with video learning material during last week. Let us know what can be improved on our Telegram channel.
