Company Summary

Kyle refused to go to Junior high school when they wouldn't pay him to be there. Instead he taught himself to code so he could build GlobeOfGeek.

On GlobeOfGeek students share school work online and are paid a new kind of money they call Bitcoin. Kyle says Bitcoin will "be the best kind of money ever because you can't stop kids from getting it"

GlobeOfGeek has grown to 10k+ active users and is fundraising to build a more rewarding school.
