Bitcoin Association, the Switzerland-based global industry organization that strives to widen the scope and uses of the Bitcoin SV blockchain, launched Bitcoin SV Academy before the year 2020 ended, and is now offering the online course “Introduction to Bitcoin Theory” for free.
“Education is a cornerstone of the work we do at Bitcoin Association, as we help businesses and individuals alike understand the Bitcoin system envisioned by Satoshi Nakamoto, and how Bitcoin SV is the only project implementing that Satoshi Vision. Bitcoin SV Academy will be a key component of that work moving forward, providing a platform to deliver a robust curriculum tailored to all levels of ability and knowledge, as we educate the world about just what’s possible with the power of the original Bitcoin protocol,”
Bitcoin Association Founding President Jimmy Nguyen said.
Bitcoin SV Academy was established to make learning about the original Bitcoin design accessible to a wider audience through an online education platform that provides academia-quality and university-style courses and learning materials. This is in line with the objective of not only propagating awareness about Bitcoin SV, but also correcting misconceptions about Bitcoin that have been spreading across the Internet.
And this is precisely why the Introduction to Bitcoin Theory course has been made available for free to all beginners. The course discusses the original Bitcoin design according to creator Satoshi Nakamoto, known in the real world as nChain Chief Scientist Dr. Craig S. Wright.
The course is taught by Brendan Lee, head of technology at blockchain management consultancy Faiā, and Evan Freeman, an experienced technology educator and researcher passionate about Bitcoin innovation. There are 13 lessons totalling to nine hours of online classes. Bitcoin SV Academy is committed to educating people about what the Bitcoin SV blockchain actually is, its use cases and benefits.
“The most important piece of infrastructure that Bitcoin can have is access and availability of education—not only does it broaden the pool of talent available to work and build with Bitcoin, but it also helps to spread awareness of what Bitcoin as an entire technology system can do and is truly capable of,” Steve Shadders, Technical Director of the Bitcoin SV Infrastructure Team, commented.
Bitcoin SV Aacademy is soon to open the Bitcoin Development and Bitcoin Infrastructure courses for enrolment, all available in three levels: introductory, intermediate and advanced. There will be an assessment at the end of the course, and students will be awarded a certificate once they pass it.
