Key Features

LiveEdu Platform and API Ecosystem

1. List of Topics and Categories 
   LiveEdu covers seven topics; programming, game development, design, data science, virtual and augmented reality, artificial intelligence and cryptocurrencies.
   Each of these seven topics contains its own sub-categories.
   The six other new topics were launched in August 2017 and LiveEdu does not yet have significant content for them. Currently, there is no premium project content on LiveEdu except for programming.
   Our plan is to use part of the funds from the ICO to incentivize streamers to create premium projects.
2. Main Product Features: Live Streams, Videos, Chat 
   Content on LiveEdu is organized around projects. Each project contains a live streaming channel, video project playlist and live chat window. ​Each live stream is archived automatically as a video. LiveEdu gives content creators the ability to deliver their projects via live stream or offline recording.
   There are two main types of projects on LiveEdu; premium tutorial projects and non-premium projects.
   The interactive live chat is the main mode of Q & A communication between a content creator and viewers. Learners ask questions, give suggestions for improvement and also socialize with other learners. When a learner opens a live stream he can see the live channel, chat window, project description, curriculum and downloadable resources. Content 10 creators use the streaming software client Open Broadcaster Software (OBS) to stream their desktop, audio and camera to one of the LiveEdu streaming origin servers.
3. Premium Tutorial ProjectsPremium tutorial projects are projects created with the sole intention of teaching learners. They are fully narrative, structured, contain well drafted project descriptions, streamed at same weekly schedule and have downloadable project resources.
   The creation of premium tutorial projects undergoes a strict content moderation process to ensure the highest quality standard. Creating a premium tutorial project requires the content creator to spend time preparing the content. The content creators selected for premium tutorial projects have vast real industry experience, with at least four years in their field.
   Below are examples of premium tutorial projects from the fields of data science and programming that explain how LiveEdu teaches learners how to build real products:
   - Project Title: Python Data Analytics and Visualization
   - Project Title: How to Create a Dating Web App in Node.js
   - Project Title: Machine Learning Model: Python Sklearn & Kera
4. LiveEdu API Ecosystem and Third-party Apps As 
   LiveEdu seeks to position itself as the major tutorial learning platform in the world, an API will help to make this into a reality. Authentication and access controls are performed using standard and widely supported OAuth2 protocol.
   The API is available over HTTPS and follows RESTful conventions. Third-party developers can build their own complete applications on top of the LiveEdu API. This can be bots, mobile apps, websites, widget or plugins. One of such example is the LiveEdu streamer Iamvalerio who is using the API to build a LiveEdu Android app.

Technical Implementation of EDU Tokens

1. Smart Contract Implementation
   The EDU smart contract is fully implemented and set-up by the experienced blockchain and ICO experts from New Alchemy.
   The token is based on the ERC-20 standard with minimal deviations. This was designed with inspiration from other ERC-20 tokens such as Bancor, Filecoin and Civic.
   The smart contract accepts only ether. investments made with other coins and fiat will be converted to ether.
2. Token Model
   investors can buy EDU tokens directly with Ethereum (ETH), Bitcoin (BTC), Litecoin (LTC), fiat (USD/EUR) and with other coins indirectly via Shapeshift.
   An EDU token can have maximum eight decimal points. There is a soft cap of $1M and hard cap of $8M for ETH investments (non- ETH investments do not count toward the hard cap).
   The total number of EDU tokens to be minted for the LiveEdu ICO will be determined after the ICO closes.
   The total token supply is limited by the hard cap. As soon as the hard cap is reached the ICO closes.
   For both the pre-ico and main crowdsale, minimum investment amount per transaction is $3.
   If you send less than $3 per transaction, you will lose that.
   The token is denominated in US $:
   1 USD = 10 EDU tokens
