It is titled, &#8220;Where did cryptocurrencies come from?&#8221; and it introduces viewers to the basics of digital assets and their origins. Along with the Ukrainian government, industry players like Binance, Hacken, and Crystal Blockchain are also lending input to the project.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"\u0412\u0441\u0435 \u043f\u0440\u043e \u0431\u043b\u043e\u043a\u0447\u0435\u0439\u043d, \u0431\u0456\u0442\u043a\u043e\u0457\u043d \u0442\u0430 \u043a\u0440\u0438\u043f\u0442\u043e\u0432\u0430\u043b\u044e\u0442\u0438. \u0421\u0435\u0440\u0456\u044f 1. \u041f\u043e\u043d\u044f\u0442\u0442\u044f \u0444\u0456\u0430\u0442\u043d\u0438\u0445 \u0433\u0440\u043e\u0448\u0435\u0439 \u0442\u0430 \u043a\u0440\u0438\u043f\u0442\u043e\u0432\u0430\u043b\u044e\u0442\u0438\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/al_ihWqxK80?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The web series is a part of the government&#8217;s &#8220;Diia.Digital Education&#8221; program. It will run for weeks, comprising eight episodes, each six to twelve minutes long. It is moderated by local businessman and former banker Andriy Onistrat, and it will also include interviews with several top industry players.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Beyond just educating viewers, the course will also certify those who manage to watch all episodes. The government hopes to use these videos to achieve improved digital literacy in the country. It is a part of a set of digital courses, with others, including &#8220;How to become a YouTube blogger&#8221; and &#8220;digital lessons for teachers.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Education has become a significant part of the crypto industry and its push for greater adoption. The belief is that people will be more comfortable with cryptocurrencies when they get to know what they&#8217;re about, and at that point, governments will be more comfortable accepting them.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Several governments and private institutions have made some significant progress on this front across the world.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Paxful and #BuildWithBitcoin\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In September, peer-to-peer cryptocurrency exchange Paxful\u00a0<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/paxful.com\/blog\/paxful-breaks-ground-on-fourth-school\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">announced<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u00a0that it had broken ground on a new school in Nigeria. The school is a part of the company&#8217;s #BuildWithBitcoin initiative, which it plans to use to provide quality education to emerging economies.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The school is located in the northern state of Kaduna, and it will serve an estimated 200 students between the ages of three and six. It will also function as an adult education center in the evenings. In the press release, Paxful CEO and co-founder Ray Youssef explained:<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">&#8220;We chose this particular community because of the lack of necessary resources and limited school infrastructure. They are in dire need of quality learning spaces and this school is an honest representation of the impact bitcoin can have on societies as a whole, and more specifically, how it can enhance education.&#8221;<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Paxful added that the school comes with a state-of-the-art solar power facility. This will ensure that it doesn&#8217;t get affected by power outages, which the region is notorious for. It will also cut expenses, and a water filtration system will allow locals to sell filtered water at a reasonable price in their communities.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The exchange plans to build 100 such schools across the world. Its #BuildWithBitcoin initiative began in 2017, and it has seen two schools in Rwanda and one in Kenya.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Read more:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/insidebitcoins.com\/news\/kentucky-based-plant-owned-by-ukrainian-businessman-pivots-to-bitcoin-mining\">Kentucky-Based Plant Owned by Ukrainian Businessman Pivots to Bitcoin Mining<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"fin-excerpt\">With crypto industry insiders searching for new ways to improve adoption, any form of help is undoubtedly welcome.
