Education Ecosystem

LiveEdu is a decentralized peer-to-peer project learning platform for people to improve their job skills in future technologies. LiveEdu is building the YouTube for online education and professional development and targeting the $306 billion professional development market. We are taking one category out of YouTube and building it out into a bigger category of its own. Just as Twitch took the category gaming out of YouTube and built it into its own large vertical, LiveEdu is taking the category professional development out of YouTube. The main participants in the LiveEdu network are project creators, viewers, moderators, API developers, colleges, schools, libraries, businesses and third-party online education companies. We are an existing business, with team members from Amazon and Y-combinator. LiveEdu is building the world’s largest project learning network starting with the eight topics: artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, game development, data science, cryptocurrencies, programming, design, and augmented and virtual reality. Our network will be all opened for all topics in 2019. We aim to develop a decentralized online learning network that is not reliant on learning theory, but practical career skills by using real complete projects. Project creators create educational projects and are paid monthly, lifelong royalty fees as viewers learn from their projects. We are emulating the token model of Steemit and applying it to LiveEdu. In this paper we explain the token mechanics for the blockchain EDU smart contract tokens and how we intend to fully integrate EDU into the whole product, internal and external ecosystem.
