With this new funding, Chalq aims to rapidly grow both its team, user base and position as a leader in the blockchain education space.

SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA, USA, September 26, 2022 /EINPresswire.com/ — Gabe Hill, venture capital investor and blockchain operator, and Austin Dickerson, owner of Lux Productions and professional videographer, announced today that they are actively raising $2 million in Seed Round funding to take their blockchain EdTech startup Chalq to market.

Grounded in neuroscience and proven modern learning methods, Chalq creates a blockchain educational online platform through its bite-sized, digestible micro-learning course videos alongside its real-time cryptocurrency simulator. In doing so, Chalq is on a mission to “de-confuse” the blockchain space by taking an education-first and invest-second approach to blockchain education.

“We want to bring blockchain education to the masses by taking an interactive and innovative learning approach through Microlearning,” says Gabe Hill. “Our mission at Chalq is to democratize blockchain education on a global scale. The blockchain space is an incredibly fast-moving and confusing space to understand and navigate, so it’s critical to have an education platform available where users can educate themselves on blockchain technology and practice crypto investment techniques, all on one platform.”

Chalq was accepted into Silicon Valley’s most prestigious pre-seed accelerator program, The Founder Institute, which has a global acceptance rate of 14%, in August. With a rapidly growing team of 7 and an experienced advisory team including Elizabeth (Beth) Smith as Chair and EdTech leaders Matt Knapp and Douglas Solomon as Senior Advisors, Chalq is poised for success.
