BitDegree Learning Foundation Working on New Crypto Development Course

Got an email today stating that BitDegree has teamed up with the creators of Zcoin - peer-to-peer cryptocurrency based on blockchain. Zcoin is the first cryptocurrency to implement Zerocoin that secures your financial privacy using zero-knowledge proofs! Zcoin will develop a course about the Zerocoin protocol and the cryptography behind it. This course will be one of first created on the BitDegree platform by a partner blockchain company. All curious learners will able to join it in the upcoming months.

Their press release states:

" The target audience for the jointly-created upcoming cryptography course is C++ developers. It will run on the BitDegree platform. BitDegree is a pioneering decentralized education platform, which will revolutionize education by offering blockchain-powered IT and tech courses. It was created by the founders of Hostinger and 000webhost. Zcoin is based on the academic paper of the Zerocoin protocol. It differs from a number of other cryptocurrencies in that it offers privacy through the use of an inbuilt protocol that allows users to remove transaction history of coins. This process involves burning up coins and redeeming a brand new coin with no transaction history by producing a zero-knowledge proof. It does this while retaining auditable coin supply and using venerable cryptography techniques such as RSA accumulators and the Fiat-Shamir transform.

BitDegree CEO Andrius Putna commented: “Zcoin is one of the pioneers of using blockchain technologies with cryptocurrencies. Working together to create a cryptography course is a huge step for BitDegree in establishing itself as a strong decentralized education platform, as well as a promoter of blockchain-based education and technologies.”

BitDegree’s token sale will start on December 1st 2017."
