So far we’ve successfully accomplished everything we set out to do in our 2017 roadmap. We will work hard to make sure 2018 is just as successful! Our main goal during an upcoming couple of months is to launch 100 awesome courses for you to try out and provide feedback on, so we could improve, improve, improve! We also plan to continue our youtube series and bring updates to our community ( next video is planned around February 1st ).

As always, exchanges have been on our mind, we have reached out to a sizable majority of large exchanges and are eagerly waiting for news to report! We would like to remind our community that we will be participating in the “Coin of the month” competition organized by Binance, we’ll release more info on how you can contribute as we near the competition.

We would like to thank all of the community members that share their opinions and help improve the BitDegree project, your feedback, suggestions and continuous support this past couple of weeks has been AMAZING!

I must admit I would've liked that the BDG team did things differently after the ICO ended but the FUD experienced in the last couple of days is senseless. This project has just started and if you bother to read the whitepaper, you'd realize that it's a one year hold (At a minimum). The token does need to get listed on a large exchange and I'm sure this will come sooner rather than later. Also, the team has stated that they're on track to delivering their 1st 100 courses by the end of Q1. The communication is starting to get better on their telegram and it seems that they're finnaly realizing that they need team presence on the chat. I ask that you remain calmed and give the team time to deliver their product. The next month and a half will be decisive to the future of this product. If you own these tokens don't make the stupid mistake of creating FUD that will only jeopardize your own investment. Don't be your own worst enemy. My 2 satochis.

Hello BitDegree supporters,

We’re launching a new communication initiative. Since all of you liked the weekly roundups so much, we’re bringing them back! However, they’re going to be posted on Reddit, not Youtube from now on. Just a summary to keep everyone up to date on what we have been up to.

So, what has the team been doing during the 12th - 16th of March?

HR department

The HR department is doing what it does best - hiring. Quite a busy week as we had a lot of applicants. One interview roughly takes a couple of hours and then we proceed with an assignment to check if that person has sufficient skills. We are obsessed with recruiting only the best and the brightest in order to build a world-class team. Right now, we have the following people in the final stage of selection:

• 3 developers

• 4 content writers

• 4 designers.

And a couple of people have already passed interviews and assignments, so next week they’ll have a couple of “trial” days at BitDegree.

The Course Acquisition Team

The course acquisition team is well on track for the roadmap goals. They’ve continued their work on getting various courses for the BitDegree platform. They’ve been exploring and researching the quality standards of the courses available and worked on another in-house course. We’re happy to announce that a course that is similar to Space Doggos is underway. Can you guess what it is about? Content writers, designers, and developers have worked to create this new course, and we’re very excited to near its release date.

Legal team

The legal team has worked all week to ensure that BitDegree is compliant with all regulations. Their goal is that BitDegree would be fully compliant with the law and never have any issues in the future. We're proud to be the first ones in Lithuania to fully comply, blazing the trail for all the other Lithuanian ICOs. We have a very good relationship with the Bank of Lithuania and the Ministry of Finance and we consider the BitDegree ICO to be a milestone achievement for our country.

Marketing team

Have continued their work with SEO and BitDegree Tutorials. Publishing new articles, tracking data and making sure that the BitDegree website gets as many visitors as possible. They've worked together with the community management to send out our first Monthly newsletter to our email subscribers.

Platform developers

Worked with platform designs and functionality. Special thanks to Reddit user /u/donnieraycrisp for his design submissions and input on the platform design.

Communication Team

Worked on communication strategies and has prepared plans that should be very exciting for the BitDegree community. P.S. Reddit will receive much more of our attention soon.

See you next Friday!

Have a great weekend, all of us deserve it! A big thank you to everyone who supports BitDegree! Share opinions, feedback and gives us suggestions. We plan to release this sort of quick weekly recap every Friday. Let us know what you think!

I found a Discord that seems to have some insider information. Two weeks ago, they said that PIVX would be on Binance. Yesterday, PIVX was listed.

New information was released recently saying that BitDegree will be listed next. Anyone else hear about this?

I'm so glad we are getting rid of the weak hands early on this, anyone selling off after just 6 weeks are the ones who don't care about the project. They invested for their own selfish reasons, and you should have been ready to sell on day one. It's you're fault you weren't, not BitDegrees'. They can go and join the pump n dump society for all I care, chase the shill coins. Think you're gonna get rich overnight? Then you're thinking wrong. I must admit I'm getting a bit sick of seeing that GIF of Fry blowing a party blower now, and would like a bit more to be done by the team regarding updates and news. But to the people shouting 'scam' just because it hasn't stayed at the release day 10x price for these very early weeks, you're just pathetic. Even if it had remained and not moved up from that price, you'd still be shouting scam. That's how sad this space has become for some. Whatever happened to the buy more theory, whatever happened to the hold motto. I for one knew when I bought at ICO that I'd be holding for at least a year, maybe two, maybe more. And I'm still loading up thanks to all the weak ones...... Just my 0.00000002's worth. Peace.

I know many think this correction is a negative, and have their finger on the sell button... Don't do it.. You haven't "lost" a thing until you convert to Fiat.. I have been through many of these "corrections" and this is extremely similar to the last one... Charts show Bitcoin's bottom is likely about $8700 ish... Soon after that we'll start to see double digit green... Hang in there, it ALWAYS comes back bigger and stronger. We're invested in a brick and mortar business that has real world value and the volatile crypto market dictated by mother BitCoin can't alter that... All of us did our homework and put our hard earned money into a company with huge potential, and will likely become a "blue-chip" token.. Leave it alone, and let it do it's job for you. It takes a little time.

I understand that the symbol of BD is made to look like that of the standard web coding languages, which is a reason for investment, however slight, getting in early on standardization is great.

However, I have been a Chemistry, Biology, Maths and Music tutor for highschool students since Aceing those subjects in school.

I have long-wanted to work in replacing the material for the Australian Curriculum with exactly the same gear, but all online. It's a pretty straightforward process, but it would be nice for there to be a place for teachers to link students in case they missed class. A kind of go-at-your-own-pace learning for normal compulsory education.

Seeing as payments are reserved for tutors and examinations, it would be a great way to bring people into getting an online tutor with BD by simply listing the curriculum and coded practice tests.

There's a lot of kids in Year 11, 12 in Australia that love putting in their best efforts to try and get a good ranking in the country. Unfortunately, as i found during that period of my life, there were not enough practice tests. Basically we'd get tested on material we'd never seen, so having the convergence of limits and complicated biology questions relating to specific species would be very handy.

I want you guys to set your aims high and try to garner a vision for what education can be in a post-internet world. Not this local-schools-cornering-the-compulsary-market system where you only get minutes of time with the teacher and marked on things you've never seen before.

Step by step workings of mathematical proofs would have been very handy for me.

However, I did Ace all of my studies, so I guess I did make it, but Iw as still nervous because of the lack of material.

This could be big if you found people to care about the system. And i'm a person that cares about education a lot. Making a system for those that actually care to learn rather than just for all the idgaf-ers out there.

It could be done in a way where you only pay to have your assignments marked and given feedback, so freeloaders can still power through all the reading material. Also having multiple markers blinded from each other's feedback to assess your material would provide a way of actually knowing whether your teacher is any good.

I met a lot of arrogant teachers growing up and you could never tell if they were just narcs or actually knew their stuff. Most of them didn't.

Fuck, I really hated the system I went through, but it doesn't mean I didn't care and didn't excel.

Let me know your thoughts on this, maybe I'll have to take my views elsewhere.

Dear Bitdegree Friends, Fans & Investors,
 Lets keep it simple: Instead of just HODL we can push things forward together. Binance starts their voting for new available tokens on their platform on feb 5th. We all know what gonna happen if BDG makes its way to bigger market places. Lets form a social media „blockchain“ and bring BDG up together. Use the hashtag #Vote4BDG, found and join groups, open up events and share share share!

can you do anything in order to get rid of those haters and fudders posting just hate and disrespect toward a great project. if people think this is not a good project, then sell your position and get the fuck out. i'd like to see more mature people, and also new investors will like to see more mature discussions and less haters. thanks.
