Our Bitcoin for Beginners course was designed to provide Africans with a comprehensive understanding of Bitcoin, how it works, and how it can be used. We believe that education is the key to promoting Bitcoin adoption in Africa, and we are bent on empowering as many as we can reach to take control of their finances. Our course covers a range of topics, from the basics of Bitcoin to more advanced concepts such as wallets, transactions, and mining.
Over the past few months, we have had the pleasure of working with a diverse group of individuals and organisations who share our passion for Bitcoin. Our graduates come from all walks of life and from different parts of Africa, but what they all have in common is a desire to learn and a willingness to embrace this new technology.
We are proud to say that our course has been a success, with 300 graduates now equipped with the knowledge and skills to navigate the world of Bitcoin with confidence. We have received positive feedback from our graduates, who have praised our course for its comprehensive content and user-friendly format.
