Many people active in the world of digital currency will know the BitNation project as a platform that is working on bringing various services to the blockchain. Ranging from identity registration to notary services and even becoming a developed blockchain-based virtual nation, the BitNation team is tackling all angles. But very few people are aware of their educational efforts and the partnership with Exosphere.

Exosphere Starts Accepting Ether Payments For Education

The educational efforts organized by Exosphere — as part of the BitNation educational network — are quite impressive, as this entrepreneurial learning community focuses on enhancing life as we know it. Bringing new experience and lasting relationships to the table as some forgotten aspects of our society these days, and it is good to see educational efforts focusing on those key elements of human society.

Regardless of how people want to look at things, the world we live in is facing a fair amount of problems, all of which need to be solved sooner rather than later. Exosphere is designed to merge first-principles thinking with the desire to improve ourselves and the world, making it a perfect community for entrepreneurs, enthusiasts, and startups.

Exosphere will be running an eight-week residential program, putting participants at the cutting edge of learning experiences. Rather than attending a course where professors drone on about the things printed in the textbook, immersive learning will take center stage. Additionally, there is a big focus on collaboration and exploration, allowing attendees to master their current skills and dive head-first into the world of exploring new subjects.

Exopshere representative Moritz Bierling stated:

“Exosphere Academy is the institution that prepares new generations to adapt and thrive in the new economy. We host immersive and interdisciplinary learning experiences. In the past 3 years we have run 7 long form programs, 2 summits, and 28 workshops (in 25 cities) for more than 1000 participants from 45 countries.”

Attending the Exosphere Academy 2016 is for everyone looking to play a role of importance in the Creative Economy over the next few years, as the current selection of “streams” is focusing on coding, UI/UX development, entrepreneurship, and biohacking. There are limited spots available, and interested parties will need to fill in an application form first and foremost. Do keep in mind the Exosphere headquarters are located at Vina del Mar in Chile.

As one would come to expect, this eight-week journey does not come free of charge, but this is where Exosphere shows its firm belief in the future of digital currency. By accepting Ether as a payment method, any Ethereum enthusiast can attend this educational program, assuming their application gets approved.
