BNB Donations to Giggle Academy
Binance Founder Changpeng Zhao shared that Giggle Academy received $3 million BNB donations in 36 hours. CZ earlier shared that donations worth $1 million BNB were received in 12 hours from the commencement of the initiative. He praised the community and underlined that 90% of the donations were from a meme coin.
Changpeng CZ Zhao added that he does not plan to complicate the model of free education with tokenomics. Therefore, he further stated, there will not be a token from Giggle Academy. CZ noted that Giggle Academy was capable of smooth operations under donations from alumni who would get better jobs through the academy’s quality education.
Utility of BNB Donations
Changpeng Zhao emphasized that it was important to incentivize creators despite the academy following a zero-revenue model. So, the donations that it receives would be utilized to incentivize creators. CZ said that the academy would continue to provide education for free, and at good quality.
Giggle Academy has shed more light on the utility of donations. It said through an X post that donations would also be utilized in developing the ecosystem and impact expansion. These are in addition to the promotion of the product and building of the community.
Being a free (0 revenue) education platform, it’s hard to incentivize contributors. Donations will be used to solve that, and expand coverage.
All donations will be in crypto, on-chain, fully traceable. No fiat.
Education continues to be free. Do what you can. 🙏 https://t.co/pVNUm3iIBc
