MetaMask Learn is an educational platform designed to immerse you in the world of web3— what it is, why it matters, and how to get started. You will learn core concepts in fresh and engaging lessons from the world’s leading self-custodial wallet.
- You’ve been interested in web3 but just don’t know where to start
- You’ve bought some crypto on an exchange but don’t know what to do with it
- You still don’t understand web3 principles because they’ve been too jargon-heavy
- You want to know what the fuss about web3 really is
- You just want to keep up with your friends who babble about this new digital era and its possibilities
The list could go on. But at its core, Learn is designed for anyone who wants to take the leap to explore uncharted waters. At a self-moderated pace, you can jump into any and all lessons that interest you, interact with features in the simulation, and experience those satisfying “ah-ha” moments when you finally grasp important concepts. As you may have heard, crypto wasn’t created to make you rich, it was created to set you free. And we like to think freedom is fun.
