LeBron James, a three-time NBA champion and forward for the Los Angeles Lakers, has partnered with digital currency exchange Crypto.com to boost educational and professional development initiatives focused on Web3.
According to the Akron Beacon Journal, the cooperation will enable 1,600 schoolchildren in LeBron James’ hometown of Akron, Ohio learn about the technology behind cryptocurrencies and how it can improve their future job pathways.
“Our economy, sports and entertainment, the art world, and how we interact with one another are all being transformed by blockchain technology.
I want to make certain that communities like mine are not left behind “James remarked. In virtual and in-person workshops with professionals from Crypto.com, students will learn about the various opportunities accessible in the area. The following are remarks made by Kris Marszalek, co-founder and CEO of Crypto.com:
With a daily trading volume of $3 billion, Crypto.com is now the 5th largest exchange. It has a customer base of over ten million people.
Some Crypto.com users were not happy with the update
However, not everyone was pleased with the new feature. Some people believe the corporation should have focused more on improving the consumer experience rather than investing in such collaborations.
