The future belongs to those who can build it, not just use it—and that's the powerful premise behind our latest Tech Talk podcast episode on educating the next generation about Web3. When we discovered that over 400 million people unknowingly use blockchain applications while 99% of schools teach technology like it's 2005, we knew something had to change.
What exactly is Web3? It's not just crypto jargon or technical complexity—it's fundamentally about ownership. Instead of surrendering your data to corporations and juggling dozens of passwords, Web3 gives you one wallet, one identity, and full control over your digital life. It's the difference between renting and owning your online presence. This shift impacts everyone from artists and teachers to future product managers and community leaders.
The exciting announcement at the heart of this episode is the launch of our comprehensive Web3 Digital Identity Curriculum—an eight-week course designed for STEM schools, charter schools, and vocational programs. This isn't theory or hype, but a practical, hands-on program covering blockchain fundamentals, Web3 wallets, NFTs, on-chain credentialing, and digital sovereignty principles. We're launching with a pilot cohort of 10 students who'll not only become our first certified graduates but will receive a $100 USDC "reverse scholarship" for their participation and feedback. The curriculum is non-biased and focuses on the core principles that will prepare students for a blockchain-powered future.
The next Steve Jobs won't be in a boardroom—they'll be in a DAO with an ENS name and a blockchain resume.
