Blockchain master’s degree program will now be possible at the Dublin City University in partnership with the tech company network ICT Skillnet. This will be the first master’s program in the country based on the blockchain and we read more about it in the latest cryptocurrency news.

The new program is named ‘’The Master’s In Blockchain: Distributed Ledger Technologies’’ degree which is the highest spot for ICT Skillnet’s efforts to acknowledge the skills that the upcoming blockchain engineers need to learn with the help of the blockchain educational program Blockchain Ireland.

There was a 12.5% corporate interest rate and Ireland established itself as a country that has a preferable jurisdiction for tech business in recent years.
