this project is great because one of the innovations that many people are interested in is proven by the many people who shared about this project on various social media accounts, I hope this project will be able to answer the future challenges of crypto.

Open Source University is the World's Academic & Career Development Ledger in the process of making. It is to be empowering 7 billion learners to connect to world's top academic education and professional development opportunities on the Ethereum blockchain.

Ah! I have only just found out about this project, this one really interests me as I am thinking about doing some more courses myself and I love the model of this business.

I missed out on the pre sale but I can still get into the main sale 04 JUN 2018 – 01 JULY 2018 – 1 ETH = 750 EDU

I'm looking forward to following the progress of OS University

You may have missed the pre sale but the main sale is still on and a good price.

The team look really good and they know their stuff.

I'm excited for the launch of this one.

Open Source University looks very interesting and I can see its relevance in this modern time. As a student myself I can see the value in being able to connect to the world’s best academic education as well as to professional development opportunities. When businesses are able to have access to a database of candidates with the right education or learning, skills, and experience that will certainly help with the costs that recruitment and training entails. That makes it easier and efficient for businesses to hire people who are right for the job. I hope the best for this project dev and to your team!

.           Looks like an exciting new project whitepaper is very interesting

These guys are up for an award at the Blockchain Expo in Amsterdam at the end of June.

    Definitely loving the idea still going thorough the whitepaper at the minute but a library full of knowledge stored on the blockchain that’s a massive benefit for the students

Thanks for the positive feedback @purplesugar!

@AleksBozhinov, thank you for your assistance with the announcement.

Hello everyone, we are very happy to announce our initiative on the Bitcointalk forum!
We are here to answer any questions you might have.

OS.University Team

      Definitely I couldn’t agree more, opportunities could be endless educational & career this could be so cost saving for students & adult

Your project is sure to be confused with another project, Educoin, as it already use the EDU ticker symbol.

Hey, @envist, OS.University is a decentralized platform to provide an industry-standard way for learners to keep track of their verified credentials, as well as to find the best learning & career development opportunities by getting connected to Academia and businesses.

We are the first to practically implement the concept of a "global credentials wallet" and a "global learning ledger", working on the project since early 2015, but we are not the only ones when it comes to application of the blockchain for various educational purposes. So, indeed, there are other cryptocurrencies as the one you mentioned, but their use-cases are far more limited. From what I read (we've done our preliminary research) this other edu-coin would serve only as a tool to buy and sell crypto-course offerings from a single content vendor, and not as a mean of exchange in a global decentralized educational marketplace.

So yes, similarities stat and end with the name itself the same way similarities in ticker symbols of Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, Bitcoin Gold, can be confusing. Once we approach the moment of listing on the first cryptocurrency exchanges in H1 2018, we will pick a unique ticker symbol to represent the ''EDU Token", but also to avoid confusion with other "EDU"-projects. We will also trademark it, the same way all open source projects protect their brand symbols.

This is something that is in our roadmap. But never the less, thanks for giving me the opportunity to underline it.

Best,                 Very interesting project changing the way are kids will learn forever bringing education into the future

And to think that in the beginning, blockchain was just a simple ledger idea. It's expanding in uses as fast as people's imaginations. The future looks bright.

Just coming out of education and going into my first bussiness. Found this project at the right time. I love how they want to bridge the gap between Businesses and Education. This is going to help so many other out there

Exactly. Isn't it surprising that all these connections don't seem to have been made in the past? When I was at Uni (back in the day) there was very little link to the outside world. And these guys already have built up connections with industry. Think about it. Ernst and Young, IBM... the list goes on.

[HarryCal]

Token sale starts tomorrow. Bonuses start big, so I'm getting in early

[stamingabro]

[RogTheDodge]

Yeah it looks like a good solid project this one, I am waiting for the token sale to start on 4th June.
