Open Campus, a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) known for onchain education, has launched its layer-3 blockchain, EDU Chain, on Arbitrum Orbit. Introduced on Jan. 17, this blockchain is tailored for educational apps and onchain education utilizing the EDU token. A key feature of EDU Chain is the Open Campus (OC) Achievement system, enabling educational institutions to issue tamper-proof records of learners' qualifications. These achievements are self-sovereign records stored in a learner's digital wallet, ensuring data privacy. With $150 million in total value locked (TVL), EDU Chain is the largest layer-3 blockchain. The mainnet launch follows a successful testnet campaign, with developers now deploying their DApps. Open Campus has also initiated a hackathon series and an incubator program to support DApp development. The platform rewards users with Yuzu points for engaging with DApps, emphasizing the potential of tokenized educational content and AI-powered learning experiences in revolutionizing global education by 2025.
