CoinMarketCap, the world’s most-referenced price-tracking website for crypto assets, launches an educational platform starting with Band Protocol (BAND) which will allow users to earn crypto assets by completing educational tasks. All CoinMarketCap users will be able to learn about the oracle problem, a key infrastructure of the blockchain industry that powers decentralized finance, and how tokens like BAND are instrumental in creating a decentralized and scalable oracle network.

The collaborative campaign with CoinMarketCap and Band Protocol will last for eight days, with $160,000 worth of BAND tokens evenly distributed to each eligible qualified user who successfully completes the quiz after watching a short series of engaging and educational videos. For anyone with a smartphone in a supported country, it’s easily accessible to earn crypto while they learn about its use-case and utility.

“Education is key to accelerating the use of cryptoassets and we are thrilled to be part of CoinMarketCap’s efforts to help users to learn more about their underlying technology and have hands-on experience in utilizing cryptoassets like BAND to secure DeFi and smart contract applications.

About Band Protocol
Band Protocol is a cross-chain data oracle platform that aggregates and connects real-world data and APIs to smart contracts. Blockchains are great at immutable storage and deterministic, verifiable computations — however, they cannot securely access data available outside the blockchain networks. Band Protocol enables smart contract applications such as DeFi, prediction markets, and games to be built on-chain without relying on the single point of failure of a centralized oracle. Band Protocol is backed by a strong network of stakeholders including Sequoia Capital, one of the top venture capital firms in the world, and the leading cryptocurrency exchange, Binance.
