Bitcoin is more than just a digital currency, it’s an entire technological movement. To build on Bitcoin, you need a deep understanding of its foundations, and that’s exactly what the Mastering Bitcoin pathway offers.
This 8-week structured learning track is designed for developers, designers, and Bitcoin enthusiasts who want a comprehensive study of Bitcoin’s inner workings.
Using Mastering Bitcoin (3rd Edition) by Andreas Antonopoulos as our primary resource, participants work in peer-learning study groups to discuss Bitcoin concepts and engage in hands-on learning.
This Pathway Covers:
✅ How Bitcoin works; from cryptographic keys to network architecture.
✅ The mechanics behind wallets, transactions, and mining.
✅ Bitcoin scripting & programming concepts to deepen your technical knowledge.
✅ Decentralization & security.
Participants attend weekly discussion calls, prepare presentations based on Socratic discussion questions, and engage in partner discussions.
