#27 Mi Primer Bitcoin - Grassroots Bitcoin education in El Salvador
Manage episode 333867074 series 3347694
Laws can help in the adoption of Bitcoin. The Bitcoin Law in El Salvador certainly brought a lot of attention to the peer to peer electronic cash system and removed obstacles for its use as a Medium of Exchange. Without a financially literate population that is proficient in the fundamentals of using Bitcoin, however, real adoption can hardly happen. It requires education, not just decree. Mi Primer Bitcoin is a grassroots Bitcoin education initiative in El Salvador that is bringing Bitcoin education to schools and villages. And recently, they have graduated the first cohort of students from their novel Bitcoin curriculum. We are joined by Gloriana and Raul, two Bitcoin educators, who have been working with Mi Primer Bitcoin since its inception, and talk about achievements and what their plans for the future are.
