About Crypto Kids Camp
While S.T.E.M and S.T.E.A.M have traditionally been the standard for the world of science and tech education, it often fails to keep up with the lightening fast pace of technological innovation. Crypto Kids Camp combines emerging technology with financial literacy to create a unique educational experience that not only improves upon these conventional programs, but stands in a lane of its own. Their innovative BEASTMODE curriculum helps kids stay ahead of the curve and start the journey to become crypto and tech experts and enthusiasts.
