Bitcoin Education Expands to Nashville
Mi Primer Bitcoin has officially revealed that the third edition of its Bitcoin Education Unconference will be held at The Cordelle in Nashville on July 24. This follows the highly successful events held previously in San Salvador and Madeira, showcasing the organization’s dedication to spreading Bitcoin knowledge globally.
The event is set to bring together top Bitcoin veterans and is designed to foster collaboration and networking among attendees. Unique to this conference, participants are encouraged to actively engage by pitching their ideas and contributing to the event’s schedule. This decentralized and participatory format reflects the core principles of the Bitcoin community.
A Platform for Collaboration and Innovation
By partnering with industry leaders like Jeff Booth, Preston Pysh, and Ben Perrin, the Unconference aims to create a dynamic environment where participants can share knowledge and ideas. These sessions are not just for listening but for active involvement, allowing each attendee to leave with new insights and connections that could lead to future collaborations.
Promoting Global Bitcoin Education
Mi Primer Bitcoin, known in English as “My First Bitcoin,” actively promotes Bitcoin education, especially in El Salvador. The organization has teamed up with El Salvador’s Ministry of Education to enhance the understanding and adoption of Bitcoin through formal education channels.
The initiative plans to integrate Bitcoin education into El Salvador’s public school system by 2024, with a pilot program slated to train 700 teachers who will then educate students across the nation. In April, 97 teachers completed their training, with several new groups embarking on a ten-week course shortly thereafter.
Worldwide Outreach and Impact
Launched in early 2022, the Bitcoin Diploma has gained worldwide traction, with the curriculum being translated into 23 languages and adopted by educational institutions across countries ranging from Uruguay to South Korea. This program covers a broad spectrum of topics, including the history of fiat money, its complications, and the transformative potential of Bitcoin.
John Dennehy, the founder of Mi Primer Bitcoin, has frequently underscored the organization’s mission to make Bitcoin education accessible on a global scale. With El Salvador being the first country to adopt Bitcoin as legal tender, Dennehy believes that the nation has a unique opportunity to set a global example through education.
“As the first nation to adopt BTC, El Salvador will be an example to the world; we get to decide what sort of example that will be. Our vision is to teach a nation and change the world. I know that sounds crazy, but I think we are well on our way and the Bitcoin Diploma is a big part of that.” — John Dennehy
Conclusion
The upcoming Bitcoin Education Unconference in Nashville represents a significant step in Mi Primer Bitcoin’s mission to disseminate Bitcoin knowledge and foster a global network of crypto enthusiasts. By offering a platform for collaboration and active participation, the event promises not just to inform but to inspire and empower its participants. With its expanding educational initiatives, Mi Primer Bitcoin is laying the groundwork for a future where Bitcoin literacy is widespread, ultimately contributing to the broader adoption and understanding of this revolutionary technology.
