The Stakeholders in Blockchain Technology Association of Nigeria (SIBAN) has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Institute For the Future (IFF) of the University of Nicosia (UNIC) where they identified blockchain adoption and education as a critical need for the growth and development of the emerging blockchain industry in Nigeria. The MOU was signed by the Executive Director of the Institute For the Future (IFF) of the University of Nicosia, Professor George Giaglis, and the Executive Secretary of Stakeholders in Blockchain Technology Association of Nigeria (SIBAN), Mr Obinna Iwuno.
Since 2013, the University of Nicosia has remained the global leader by offering a Master’s degree fully focused on blockchain technologies and digital currency and also a free Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) on digital currencies. With this collaboration, SIBAN will promote UNIC’s leading graduate program, MSc in Blockchain and Digital Currency, and associated academic certification programs within its blockchain and cryptocurrency community in Nigeria. SIBAN will enjoy partial scholarship offers from UNIC that are uniquely available to the organization.

This collaboration was made possible through the efforts of Mr Jude Ozinegbe, a founding member of SIBAN and past VP on Membership, who doubles as the Nigerian Ambassador of the Institute of the Future and is currently undertaking his Master’s degree in Blockchain and Digital Currency at UNIC. He laid emphasis on the UNIC being the global leading institution that offers accredited Blockchain Education, the first institution to receive tuition in bitcoin, and the first to issue certificates that are verifiable on the Bitcoin Blockchain, solving the issue of false academic claims and results in manipulation.
