San Francisco, CA, September 11th, 2024. EasyA, a leading Web3 education platform, proudly announces that it has surpassed one million downloads across iOS and Android. This milestone underscores EasyA’s rapid rise in popularity among developers and crypto enthusiasts.
Success of EasyA App
Founded in 2020 by brothers Phil and Dom Kwok, EasyA quickly became the go-to app for aspiring and experienced developers to learn and build on leading blockchains such as Polkadot. To date, over 100,000 developers have learned about Polkadot via EasyA.
Impact on Developers and Blockchains
Industry thought leaders have likened EasyA’s approach to learning Web3 to that of Duolingo and its transformation of language learning. One Polkadot community member recently referred to EasyA as 'Duolingo, but twice as good.' This demonstrates that developers worldwide appreciate EasyA. For instance, Alexandra, a Harvard junior, notes that the app keeps her interested: 'I tried learning Web3 by going to workshops or online bootcamps but always lost interest quickly. With EasyA, it’s so easy to learn about any chain I want, whenever I want. As soon as a new challenge drops in the app, I’m always one of the first to try and complete it, even if it sometimes means being late to lectures.'
Future and Plans of the Startup
EasyA’s popularity extends beyond the online sphere, attracting massive attention at hackathons worldwide. This summer, nearly 1,000 developers participated in such events, launching 111 startups on Polkadot. At the CoinDesk Consensus conference in Austin, EasyA brought together a record number of developers, leading to the launch of over 100 startups. Most recently, a hackathon winner founded Cognition AI, valued at over $2 billion. EasyA also plans to launch its own fund to invest in startups by its users and expand into the Asian market.
EasyA remains a leader in Web3 education platforms, attracting more developers and fostering new startup launches. With such ambitious plans, the future of EasyA looks very promising.
