MetisEdu（$MTS）是一个韩国大规模开放在线课程（MOOC）教育平台，其代币 $MTS 同时在以太坊和 Klaytn 区块链上发行。
Metis 相信通过教育使个人能够发挥自己的真正潜力。 然而，由于难以获得教育，教育经常得不到充分利用，学生可能并不总是有正确的动力完成学业。 Metis 通过为用户提供直接的经济激励来解决这个问题，该激励代表了用户自身无法获得的社会经济价值。 通过 Metis，学生有经济动力去学习和掌握社会所需的技能。 这些学生学习和掌握行业缺乏的技能，可以在接受教育的同时赚钱。
The MTS token have several use cases:
1. Governance Token
a. MTS token owners can create governance proposals and vote on proposals that will directly affect the MetisEdu protocol.
Some of the decisions that are influenced through voting are:
- i. Total rewards distributed upon completion of each course (courses in-demand by society can be voted on to increase rewards earned from course completion to incentivize more users to pick up the course)
- ii. Type of courses and education institutions that will be allowed to participate in the provision of courses on the MetisEdu platform
b. MTS token can also be delegated to trusted educational institutions/organizations who can cast votes on behalf of the MTS users.
c. MTS token holders can vote on MetisEdu tutor applicants after viewing their sample lectures.
- i.If the tutor that you voted on won the majority of the votes, you will receive dividends from the revenue earned from the tutor’s lectures. Dividends will be paid with the TriumphX project’s native token TRIX monthly.
- ii. Furthermore, you will receive the NFT representing a part of the ownership of the tutor’s videos. You can trade them on the marketplace with others. If more users take the tutor’s lectures, there will be more dividends distributed to NFT holders. Therefore the value of NFT will rise.
2. Staking by educational institution
a. To qualify for the provision of courses on MetisEdu, each qualifying educational institution will need to stake a particular amount of MTS tokens to provide their courses on the MetisEdu platform.
b. Institutions can get discounts for platform commission.
c. Differentiated marketing packages, which will increase lecture exposure on the platform, will be provided based on the amount staked.
3. Staking by students to boost incentive rewards
a. Users can stake a certain amount of MTS token as a signal of their dedication to completing the class. Upon completion, they can receive multiple times of their rewards. (e.g. a user who has staked tokens may receive up to 5 times more token rewards as incentive).
- i. This system gamifies the lessons taken and increase the incentive for users to complete their classes. Users are also incentivized to work harder to complete their classes earlier as it increases their rewards upon completion.
- ii. Staking can also reduce fees for certain selected classes and platform access in view of their supports and belief in the MetisEdu system.
4. MTS tokens can be used as a currency for payment of classes or for the redemption of rewards for their work in completing the classes.
a. Class fees may be discounted if payment is made using MTS tokens
b. Given that MTS token price may fluctuate, MetisEdu platform will be connected to external oracles to obtain data on realtime prices of MTS token and peg the price of the classes and incentive according to the current market price. This ensures
that the incentive of the students from completing the courses and the payment received by the education institution remains stable.
c. MTS tokens can also be earned by students through a mentorship program. Students who have completed the course can introduce new students to study in the program and they will serve as mentors to guide the new students. Upon completion of the course by the new student, the mentor will also receive a portion of incentive as a reward for
helping new students. Through our experience, we have discovered that mentorship has greatly enhanced the learning experiences of new students and increased the efficiency of their mastery of new skills.
