Commitment to Complete the Programme: The six-week course is intensive, covering various complex topics. Participants must be committed to completing the entire curriculum, including weekly homework, workshops, and a final project.
Ability to Engage in Hands-on Learning: The program involves practical, hands-on learning experiences. Candidates should be prepared and capable of engaging actively in these activities.
Willingness to Collaborate and Learn in a Group Setting: Since the program includes sponsor-led workshops and group activities, applicants should be open to collaborative learning environments.

No point in dry lecturing without any practical work in a bootcamp! All the participants will work on weekly homeworks with their teams, as well as on the final project during the final week of the bootcamp.
-
The bootcamp is completely free!
You are required to stake a 250 USDC deposit if accepted—the full deposit will be returned after successful graduation!

The bootcamp is designed to be a part-time commitment. Other than 90-minute daily sessions, you’re required to check Discord for any updates and group tasks.

All successful bootcamp graduates receive a certificate, either as a PDF or as an NFT. It serves as an official graduation certificate, which means you can feature it on your CV and LinkedIn profile.
