Description

My name is Tim Zinin, I am the founder of Botanica crypto school. We have been in existence since March 2022. We hold offline and online events to train specialists in web3 technologies. Among our teachers and partners are employees of such companies as Binance, Rarible, XDao, Coinbase, Kucoin and many others. Our team consists of 3 founders and 20 teachers and speakers. My personal experience consists of 18 years in marketing, of which 7 years I have been engaged in marketing communications of centralized crypto exchanges.

The name Botanica comes from the Russian word БОТАТЬ (to make botany). In Russian slang it means “to learn lessons” or “to play a nerd”. We started this project because we want to help millions of Russian-speaking people (both Russians and Ukrainians) who find themselves in exile find a new job in the web3 sector. Our education is focused on future employment in companies operating in the blockchain industry.

During 2022 we held two offline campuses. Each campus consisted of 2 weeks of hardcore training: lectures, workshops and a hackathon. At the end of the training, our students defend their work to representatives of VC ( Afford capital and Garage syndicate). At the end of 2022, we launched an online education program. Now it includes 2 months of basic training for future employees of crypto companies. The program includes subjects:

blockchain theory decentralized finance legal part of crypto marketing and communications Metaverses basics of cybersecurity DAO basics. NFT basics We have the necessary infrastructure for education and active marketing of courses. Upon request, we can provide access to our existing course.

We are requesting a grant to develop and improve our existing metaverse content. In our existing course, there are 2 lessons about the metaverses. Using existing content, we want to prepare a 1-month long educational course that will allow new users to immerse themselves in various aspects of the metaverse.

The course will address the following questions:

history of the metaverses creating a business in the metaverses legal basis for the operation of the metaverses success stories speakers will be invited from at least 3 different companies working daily with the metaverses. blockchain and metaverses.
