The MEXC Foundation has extended its worldwide Web3 education initiative to Northern Nigeria, hosting a landmark live trading workshop at Yobe State University on 6 September. The event represents another significant step in the Foundation’s ongoing commitment to advancing blockchain literacy in underrepresented regions.
As part of its broader educational drive, the immersive workshop formed a core component of MEXC Foundation’s three-pillar strategy of Education, Empowerment, and Community Giving. Designed to give participants a solid grounding in blockchain fundamentals, the programme included hands-on demonstrations, market analysis techniques, and insights into cryptocurrency technologies.
Beyond technical training, the sessions placed a strong focus on safety and risk awareness within the digital asset space. Attendees were guided through best practices for safeguarding their crypto holdings, equipping them with the knowledge to spot potential threats and adopt a security-first approach when navigating the evolving crypto ecosystem.
The seven-hour educational session delivered concrete results for participating students. Over 60 students completed live account setup and deposit processes during the workshop, gaining real-time experience with spot and futures trading demonstrations using actual market positions. The event culminated with a mini trading competition that awarded MEXC rewards to top performers, while establishing Yobe State University’s first crypto trading study group. The university also signed a partnership agreement for ongoing blockchain curriculum integration.
“For blockchain and the broader crypto industry to leap forward, we need more than just technological breakthroughs—we need the supporting power that drives real-world adoption,” said Ojoche Victor, Business Development Manager at MEXC Nigeria. “As we expand our global footprint, Nigeria represents the kind of high-growth market where MEXC Foundation can demonstrate how blockchain creates positive, practical change worldwide.”
