Blockchain Academy bridges Asia to the West through Web3-focused education that consists of in-person courses, digital events and hackathons.
While the blockchain industry is often perceived as being heavily reliant on the performance of crypto prices, 2023 demonstrated that Web3 development and innovation thrive independently of market fluctuations. Even amid the so-called “crypto winter,” new trends like Web3 gaming and real-world asset (RWA) tokenization emerged, highlighting the industry’s resilience and adaptability. This raises a crucial question: does the current talent pool possess the capacity to support the rapid expansion of the Web3 ecosystem into untapped niches?
The short answer is no. Blockchain is an advanced multidisciplinary technology requiring a new layer of education on top of software development and engineering skills. The lack of talent, combined with the industry’s accelerated growth, will create a bottleneck hindering innovation and further developments of Web3, reports say.
Blockchain Academy, an educational platform and community dedicated to Web3, aims to foster Web3 adoption through education. The Hong Kong-based education platform combines academic needs with industry practice through a curriculum created with the support of top universities.
