Tezos and Ethereum with an eye on developers’ future

It is a positive indicator that these two big names in the cryptocurrency industry, the Ethereum Foundation and the Tezos Foundation, are making announcements about their education program. Such programs or initiatives, in the case of Ethereum Studios, are designed for developers.

Both foundations seem to be focused on spreading and expanding existing learning tools, introducing new designers to new tools, giving free training to everyone, everywhere in the world.

The Tezos Foundation stated that more than 100 students from about 30 countries will participate in this cohort of its Blockstart program.

In addition, part of Tezos and Ethereum’s initiative has been to create incentives for designers. For example, rewards or contests. In this way, not only do Ethereum and Tezos benefit from community input, but developers can see their potential in the making.

In that sense, Tezos hosted the TEZOS INNOVATOR in Seoul, South Korea. The Foundation is proud that this was the first contest sponsored in Korea with the idea of continuing to promote the education and progress of developers.

The event had 35 teams. Then, 6 teams were selected to participate in the innovative Tezos summit. The winning team of the event, selected by Tezos Korea, was HasMob for its blockchain video storage service based on blackbox.
