Indian cryptocurrency exchange CoinDCX has launched a new educational campaign aimed at addressing the knowledge gap around cryptocurrency investments in India. The initiative, called “Learn Karo, Crypto Karo”, seeks to educate the country’s large investor community—targeting up to 160 million people, including over 5 million equity traders, who may be hesitant to enter the crypto space due to a lack of understanding.
Empowering Indian Investors with Crypto Knowledge
The “Learn Karo, Crypto Karo” initiative is designed to equip Indian investors with the foundational knowledge necessary to confidently navigate the world of cryptocurrency. According to Prashant Verma, CoinDCX’s Chief Marketing Officer (CMO), many potential crypto investors in India are wary of making mistakes, a sentiment rooted in the complexity of the asset class.
Verma said, “This hesitation largely stems from a lack of understanding of the asset class. We aim to be the trusted ‘Crypto Coach,’ simplifying the complexities and empowering users with the knowledge they need to make well-informed and assured decisions.”
Educational Content for All Levels
The initiative will provide a variety of educational content, including beginner-level material, technical and fundamental analysis, and advanced trading strategies. The platform also plans to cover important topics like taxation related to crypto investments, helping users understand the broader implications of their investments.
CoinDCX’s DCX Learn platform already offers a range of student-friendly, hands-on learning modules that cover everything from the basics of cryptocurrency to more advanced topics. As part of the campaign, the exchange will also host community events, interactive webinars, and learning resources to ensure holistic crypto education.
Celebrities Join the Campaign
CoinDCX’s campaign will be initially endorsed by Indian cricketer Gautam Gambhir, a popular figure who is expected to resonate with the target audience. The exchange plans to bring on additional ambassadors in the future who share the goal of promoting responsible investing and financial literacy.
Trump’s Impact on the Indian Crypto Market
Sumit Gupta, the Co-founder of CoinDCX, also discussed the potential impact of Donald Trump’s recent re-election on the Indian crypto ecosystem. Gupta believes Trump’s pro-crypto stance, especially his focus on regulatory clarity and support for crypto projects, could increase global market confidence and encourage countries like India to adopt more balanced and favorable crypto regulations.
Gupta explained, “A U.S. move toward favorable crypto regulations might encourage other nations, including India, to adopt a more balanced regulatory approach, potentially easing restrictions.” He also emphasized that Trump’s policies could attract international investment into the crypto space, accelerating growth and innovation, which would have a positive impact on India’s crypto market.
