EasyA, the leading Web3 education platform, has announced that it has reached 1 million downloads on iOS and Android. This milestone highlights EasyA’s rapid increase in popularity among developers and crypto enthusiasts.
Growth in EasyA's Popularity
Founded in 2020 by brothers Phil and Dom Kwok, EasyA has quickly become a popular platform for both aspiring and experienced developers who want to learn and work with leading blockchain technologies like Polkadot. Today, over 100,000 developers are learning about Polkadot using EasyA.
Comparisons with Duolingo
Industry thought leaders have likened EasyA’s mobile approach to learning Web3 to that of Duolingo and how the popular app transformed language learning. One Polkadot community member recently referred to EasyA as 'Duolingo, but twice as good.'
Key Events and Achievements
EasyA's popularity extends beyond the online sphere. At any EasyA hackathon, long lines of developers can often be seen forming hours before the event begins. This summer, nearly 1,000 developers participated in EasyA’s Polkadot hackathons, launching 111 startups on Polkadot. At the CoinDesk Consensus conference in Austin, EasyA brought together the largest number of developers in the event's history. Over 100 startups were launched, with many now successfully securing funding.
EasyA plays a key role in the careers of many startup founders. Hackathon winners attract investments from leading venture companies like a16z and Founders Fund. EasyA plans to expand its activities by launching its own fund to invest in community-founded startups and continue its expansion into Asia.
