It appears the educational sector is also jumping on the technological bandwagon and trying to keep up with the wave that is involving more and more big brands and people.
Also in the education industry, SUMA Wealth has created the world’s first NFT-enabled financial education certificate program.
Last February, Sungkyunkwan University announced the release of NFT-based award certificates to deserving graduates in recognition of outstanding achievements.
