Learnoverse, an education-focused Metaverse created by BitDegree, announced on June 6, 2022, that it had raised over $1 million in funding. BitDegree, a leading education platform, powered by the blockchain with over a million users, announced it was working on the Metaverse project.

Details of Learnoverse and the Funding

By launching Learnoverse, BitDegree plans to create an engaging means for users to learn about crypto, the blockchain, and Web3 topics in the Metaverse. The $1 million I funding will be channeled via Mistletoe, a venture ecosystem builder, and investor created by Japanese billionaire entrepreneur Taizo Son. Mistletoe focuses on making investments in projects that solve global challenges, which include learning, and education. Since its launch in 2013, it has supported over 200 startups and VCs.

How Learnoverse Works

Learnoverse is designed to gamify how people learn. It will enhance the learning experience by offering learners a virtual world designed for Web3 learning where learners, instructors, and brands can interact and express knowledge, and status via NFTs. Additionally, a unique concept dubbed Learn & Earn will reward users for the learning effort. As a result, students are motivated to complete a course.

What the Leadership Team Had to Say

According to the CEO of BitDegree, Danielius Stasiulis, in the past few months, their novel concept of a learning Metaverse had received the attention of major players in the crypto and education world. Stasiulis added that they were excited to have attracted a trusted investor like Mistletoe, whose support would open many doors.

The MD of Mistletoe, Atsushi Taira had some equally positive sentiments regarding the announcement. According to Taira, Mistletoe believed that education was key to the Web3 internet revolution. Taira noted that BitDegree had a powerful vision to attract more learners to the space via an immersive Metaverse experience. He concluded by stating “Its more than 40 people strong team, experience, and a big existing user base are important factors that led us to this decision.”

What is BitDegree?

BitDegree has been around since 2017. Since its launch, it has been developing various education-related blockchain applications. They include blockchain credentials, P2P blockchain scholarships, and various incentive-based products such as gamification. During SDG 4, the company was named Global Champion for the improvements it has made to the education sector via ICT by the UN’s World Summit Awards 2020.

What is Mistletoe?

Mistletoe calls itself a Collective Impact Community with the goal of re-creating a sustainable and human-centric future that is powered by deep tech. This is the mission that Mistletoe describes as its mission. It is made up of people who are at the forefront of the global movement of startups, such as business owners, investors, researchers, and visionaries. It is of the opinion that it is necessary for innovation to take place in an atmosphere that allows for the collaboration of individuals with different skills.

Taizo Son established it in 2013, and since then, it has provided assistance to over 200 startups and venture capital firms. Taizo is the visionary behind the gaming unicorn known as GungHo, which he established in 2002. Masayoshi Son, the founder of Softbank and the current CEO of the company, is his older brother, and he is Masayoshi Son’s younger brother.
