Open Campus, a community-led DAO developing a blockchain financial layer for education, has entered into a strategic partnership with Animoca Brands, a global Web3 investment firm, and ANPA, a Nasdaq-listed provider of ESG and compliance services. Under the agreement, ANPA will purchase up to $50 million worth of EDU tokens through market and OTC transactions over the next two years. Animoca Brands will contribute an additional $3 million in EDU tokens.
The partnership marks ANPA’s first major foray into crypto as the company expands into the education finance market. ANPA plans to collaborate with Open Campus and Animoca Brands to build a tokenization infrastructure that connects traditional finance with Web3. The company serves more than 190 listed clients in Hong Kong and the United States and aims to support broader institutional adoption of EduFi solutions.
EDU is the governance token of the Open Campus DAO and the gas token of EDU Chain. ANPA plans to use the acquired tokens for staking, governance and market access initiatives.
