Bitcoin, taught properly.
A university-level curriculum covering money, cryptography, mining, self-custody, and the economics of a fixed monetary supply. Built for serious students, not speculators.
The BitcoinSchool curriculum has been taught at Universidad Francisco Marroquín in Guatemala.
The curriculum
Six modules. One discipline.
-
The History of Money
Money is a technology that societies have revised many times. This module traces commodity money, coinage, banking, and the gold standard to establish the criteria any money must satisfy.
-
How Bitcoin Works
Bitcoin is a protocol with precise moving parts. Students work through hashing, digital signatures, transactions, blocks, and consensus until the whitepaper reads as plain engineering.
-
Mining and Energy
Proof of work anchors the ledger to physical cost. This module covers mining hardware, difficulty adjustment, and energy markets, using primary data from grid operators and mining firms.
-
Self-Custody and Security
In Bitcoin, ownership is control of keys. Students practice wallet setup, seed storage, multisignature arrangements, and inheritance planning in supervised lab scenarios.
-
Bitcoin Economics
A fixed monetary supply changes how saving, lending, and pricing behave. This module applies monetary theory to a money whose issuance schedule is public and final.
-
Building on Bitcoin
Bitcoin supports layers of software and services above the base protocol. Students design a capstone project on payments or custody infrastructure and defend it in open review.
Philosophy
Why a school.
BitcoinSchool exists because understanding money is a prerequisite for using it well. The curriculum treats Bitcoin as a subject worthy of real study, with reading lists, labs, and examinations, the way a university treats any serious discipline.
Every module begins from first principles. Students learn what a ledger is before they learn what a blockchain is, and they learn what money does before they weigh any claim about what Bitcoin will do. Headlines age. Principles hold.
The outcome is sovereignty. A graduate holds their own keys, verifies their own transactions, and explains the system they rely on. Understanding is the durable form of confidence in money.
