Binance Academy Teams Up with AWS for BNB Chain Course, Offers $9,000 Rewards

Binance Academy has launched a new course, “AWS Blockchain Node Runners for BNB Chain,” in partnership with Amazon Web Services (AWS).

This course is aimed at developers and blockchain enthusiasts and includes a 15-minute tutorial on deploying BNB Chain nodes using AWS Node Runners.

As an open-source initiative, it simplifies deploying and managing blockchain nodes on AWS. The course combines theoretical knowledge with practical demonstrations, allowing users to host their BNB Chain nodes effectively.

In celebration of the course launch, Binance offers up to $9,000 in BNB rewards to verified users who complete the course between January 27 and February 10, 2025. Starting at $3,000 for 2,000 completions, the reward pool will increase based on the number of users who finish the course, with a potential total of $9,000 for 5,000 completions.

To qualify, users must complete KYC verification, register for a Binance account, and finish the course and quizzes successfully. The rewards, distributed within 21 working days after the activity ends, will be credited as BNB token vouchers. These vouchers will remain valid for 14 days from the distribution date. Only verified users from eligible regions can participate in the activity. Binance also reserves the right to disqualify users engaged in dishonest behaviour, such as market manipulation or wash trading.

In another development, Binance has launched a feature enabling users in Pakistan to convert USDT (Tether) to PKR (Pakistani Rupee) and withdraw funds directly to bank accounts or mobile wallets. This streamlined service simplifies cryptocurrency-to-fiat transactions, offering users a seamless process via the Binance app. By selecting “Add Funds” and the “Sell” option, users can specify the USDT amount, complete the conversion, and track the transaction status. Funds are transferred to the chosen account, ensuring convenience. This initiative highlights Binance’s commitment to improving cash-out accessibility for crypto holders in Pakistan.
