NXT Brings Cryptocurrency to Czech University Curriculum

The development team behind Nextcoin, or NXT as it’s more commonly called, has reached out to their users everywhere to crowdfund the hands-on crypto education of Czech university students.
As a result, the University of Economics in Prague now offers a class called ‘NXT for Students.’ It has 60 participants, each of whom received coins donated by the NXT community. The main thrust of the course is for the students to develop applications for NXT on their own or in groups, and to use those applications to earn more of the cryptocurrency. The students who’ve earned the most additional money at the end of the semester will be rewarded an additional 10,000 NXT each for their accomplishment. (Who knew that college could teach real life skills?)
