Empowering Web3 Education with GetCrypto Card Game

Project Description:

GetCrypto is a unique and engaging card game designed to demystify the world of crypto and Web3 for newcomers. As a traditional card game on paper it eliminates technology hurdles and reinforces security best practices before any funds are at stake.

Our project aims to utilize Gitcoin Community Grants to further advance educational initiatives and promote community engagement. Here's how we plan to leverage the grant:

In-Person Meetups:

Host interactive and educational meetups in collaboration with local community groups mainly in Barcelona, Spain and Lisbon, Portugal, but also in Seoul, South Korea and Ho Chi Minh City in Vietnam. These events will provide participants with hands-on experience, fostering a deeper understanding of blockchain concepts and community culture.

Global Outreach:

Extend our educational efforts to other regions, especially Korea and Vietnam. While in-person meetups may be less frequent, we'll explore partnerships with local organizations to host workshops and events, ensuring a global reach for Web3 education.

Crypto Influencer Collaborations:

Collaborate with crypto influencers to use GetCrypto as branded educational material. This includes co-branded decks featuring the influencer's logo and content. The influencers will integrate the game into their educational content, introducing their audience to fundamental crypto concepts in an entertaining and accessible way.

Sponsoring Local Events:

Provide sponsorship in the form of giveaway decks for local crypto events and meetups. This initiative not only promotes the game but also facilitates hands-on learning experiences for attendees, creating a lasting impact on community education.

Educational Materials:

Develop supplementary educational materials that align with the game, such as online tutorials, guides, and workshops. These resources will enhance the learning experience for players and serve as valuable tools for educators and community leaders.
