ConsenSys Launches MetaMask Learn, The Next Step in Democratizing Web3
Today, ConsenSys, a blockchain technology company, announced its newest initiative, MetaMask Learn, a free-to-use resource available in 10 languages for anyone interested in learning about web3.
It provides an interactive MetaMask UI environment that will help onboard those new to self-custody safely onto MetaMask, and guide users through the most common topics to help them get started in web3.
Recent systemic shocks in the crypto ecosystem have undermined investor trust in custodial platforms, however there is still a lack of understanding of the alternatives to custodial solutions.
A recent survey consulted by Morning Consult and commissioned by MetaMask among 1505 crypto holders in the US, found that three quarters of respondents did not know or were unsure of what self-custody was.
MetaMask believes supporting web3 enthusiasts to learn about self-custody in a simulated environment will increase trust and give consumers the confidence they need to participate in the web3 ecosystem in a safe, self-managed way.
As one of the world’s leading self-custodial crypto wallet, MetaMask recognizes the steep learning curve when it comes to web3 technologies and wants to ensure that those barriers are deconstructed in a sustainable and simple manner.
MetaMask Learn will be available for free starting today at learn.metamask.io.
Providing foundational learning materials for the adoption of web3 is imperative to MetaMask’s mission of democratizing access to decentralized technology.
MetaMask Learn is a practical tool that allows the company to play a leading role in ensuring the next generation of participants in web3 are well-informed and comfortable with navigating the space.
As mentioned above, the platform will be available in 10 languages for now. It will initially be available in English, Bahasa (Indonesia), Chinese, Portuguese, Tagalog (the Philippines), Spanish, Russian, Ukrainian, Turkish and Vietnamese, with more to come.
The MetaMask Learn syllabus will guide users through many topics, including: what is Web3, what is a crypto wallet, the era of digital identity, what is a self-custody wallet, NFTs and creators, and decentralized finance.
