My First Bitcoin
Empowering The World Through Decentralized Bitcoin Education
Welcome to the Education Network, Bitcoin Center Seoul! ๐ฐ๐ท
In Korea, most people first meet Bitcoin through exchanges and price charts. Bitcoin Center Seoul set out to change that: a real place in Hongdae, open every day, where anyone can walk in, ask questions, learn at their own pace and try self-custody with their own hands.
They teach in small in-person sessions of up to 16 people, from beginner classes and self-custody workshops to a multi-week protocol course for developers, now in its second cohort. Add monthly developer meetups, a newcomersโ meetup, a library of Bitcoin books in Korean, and events paid in sats so people use Bitcoin as money from day one.
That is exactly what the Education Network exists to support. Independent educators, empowering others, in their own language and their own city.
We are glad to have you with us.

For Bitcoin to grow beyond charts and market cycles, people need to understand why it matters. That happens through education.
One educator can reach a classroom. One classroom can influence families. Those families can change a community. And when communities have the knowledge and tools to educate themselves, Bitcoin becomes something bigger than an asset people buy.
Thatโs why we empower independent educators around the world and why our work is funded by the community we serve: the Bitcoin community.
Help us create more Bitcoiners, not just more headlines.

On August 11th, we continued our mission to advance Bitcoin education worldwide. This time, in collaboration with Paystand, We had the opportunity to work with the Arhuaco community in the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta, Colombia.
โ Who are the Arhuacos? The Arhuacos are an Indigenous people who view their territory as the โHeart of the World.โ Their culture emphasizes harmony with nature, guided by their spiritual leaders, the Mamos. They speak Iku, dress in traditional white clothing with symbolic conical hats, and are known for crafting mochilas, handwoven bags with deep spiritual meaning. They are deeply connected to the land and actively defend it against threats like mining, armed conflict, and environmental harm. As โElder Brothers,โ they see themselves as guardians of Earthโs balance.
How Bitcoin Entered Their Lives The Arhuacos were introduced to Bitcoin at the Bitcoin Conference in Medellรญn, where Spanish-speaking members were invited by paystand.org to explore how Bitcoin could serve their community. There, they also met MotivPeru, whose work with the Quechua people sparked interest in visiting Peru to see Bitcoin in action.
๐ฑ A Connection with the Quechuas In Peru, the Arhuacos saw how Quechua communities use Bitcoin for savings, commerce, and tourism. Their shared values helped form an instant connection: Nature-based spirituality Spiritual leadership Sustainable agriculture Communal living and reciprocity Preservation of language and identity Defense of territory and culture.
๐Three Days of Learning Building on this experience, Paystand and My First Bitcoin organized a three-day educational program in the Arhuaco territory.
๐ฏ Goals The goals of the training include roughly four long term goals. Firstly, to introduce Bitcoin as a tool to complement traditional bartering. Secondly, to promote financial autonomy through respectful, locally relevant education. Furthermore, we aimed to train community leaders to guide conversations around value, money, and freedom. Finally, the program included philosophical dialogue, hands-on activities, and value-driven lessons. At the end, each participant received a certificate of participation, symbolizing not just completion but a meaningful step toward financial empowerment.
Weโre grateful for the opportunity to bring free and open source Bitcoin Education to all corners of the earth, especially to communities like the Arhuacos in Colombia.

May 13, 2025 โ We are proud to announce that My First Bitcoin has received a $1 million grant from #startsmall. With this financial support from Jack Dorsey's philanthropic initiative, we will continue to serve grassroots Bitcoin education initiatives worldwide.
This grant accelerates our work in the creation and distribution of free and open-source Bitcoin education materials and infrastructure. It will not only help us improve existing resources, such as the Bitcoin Diploma, Bitcoin Intro Course, and teacher training workshops, but also to scale our digital platforms like our Online School and Community Hub.ย ย
As a non-profit, founded in 2021, we have grown from a local project into a global movement. Besides creating curricula and frameworks, our team has directly taught tens of thousands of in-person students, as we workshop and refine our materials based on real world feedback.
In 2023, we launched the Independent Bitcoin Educators Node Network, providing a space for others to join us on our mission. The network spans 65+ projects from 35+ countries, including circular economies, meetup organizers and other grassroots projects. All commit to the same six pillars: that their education is independent, impartial, community-led, Bitcoin-only, quality, and focused on empowerment over profit.
While we support that network, it is now self-governing. We always seek to give power-to, rather than have power-over.
John Dennehy, founder and Executive Director of My First Bitcoin, explains:
โThe revolution of Bitcoin education is that it teaches students HOW to think, not WHAT to think. Funding from sources with their own incentives is the greatest vulnerability that threatens that. Education will be captured by whoever funds it. We will never take any government money and frequently turn down funding from corporations and companies. The subtle influence of funding has ruined fiat education and we need to create alternative models for the revolution of Bitcoin education to realize its full potential.โ
Funding for Bitcoin education must be transparent.
This grant is a huge win for all of us. For Bitcoin itself, but even more for Independent Bitcoin Education as a whole. It enables us to serve the global community better than ever before. It shows everyone what can be achieved if you stay close to your values. โMy First Bitcoin is a proof-of-concept for all independent Bitcoin educators that if you stay on the mission, even when it's challenging, then you will come out the other side even stronger,โ added Dennehy.
Arnold Hubach, Director of Communications of My First Bitcoin, continued:
"Open source money deserves open source education. Over the past few years, weโve seen growing demand for our resources around the world, and we remain committed to serving everyone in the Bitcoin space who needs support. This funding enables us to plan further into the future and continue being the first-stop provider of free educational tools."
Weโre grateful to #startsmall for believing in our mission and for understanding that Bitcoin education should always be free from external influence. Weโre also grateful to the community for helping us to arrive at this point where we are ready to receive such a grant. You lead us to where we are today. You have been our primary funding source. You will continue to lead us forward.
We will always serve the community.
Weโre also grateful for our amazing team and their proof of work. The grant will accelerate the work that they are already doing, such as curricula development, teacher training programs, the expansion of the global network, building online platforms, and providing in-person classes.
We will continue to lead by example, we will continue to push the limits, and we will continue to reimagine whatโs possible. We do not seek to please power in this world, we seek to create a proof-of-concept for a better one where the individual is empowered and able to think critically.
If you are an educator in need of tools or infrastructure; please contact us. If you can help us continue to build out these tools and maintain this growing global movement; please contact us. If you are aligned with our mission and are a supporter of independent Bitcoin education, please donate.
We work for the public. In public.

โจ https://github.com/MyFirstBitcoin/Bitcoin-Diploma-2025
Our mission is to open source #bitcoin education. To not just be a leader in El Salvador, but to be an inspiration for the entire world.
This starts with making our educational resources available to everyone for free, and the Bitcoin Diploma may be the best example of this idea. ๐ธ๐ป๐ฏ๐
In 2022, we started teaching this workbook to 38 public school teachers in El Salvador. Last year, it was embraced by over 50 educational projects from more than 30 countries. The Bitcoin Diploma is indirectly supporting grassroots initiatives with tools to implement in their local community.

Weโre always looking for synergy, and the translation of the workbook in any possible language plays a big part in that.

The #Bitcoin Diploma covers topics varying from the history of money, the emergence of fiat currencies, all the problems that todayโs government money introduced to society, and how these issues lead to solutions.
It introduces Bitcoin, the Lightning Network, how to use it in your daily life, the technical workings, and why we need Bitcoin.

I have a sad share story to share--but it's also a potent reminder of what we are fighting for
We had invited @MukunguFelix to come to @BitcoinAtlantis last week, as part of the @MyfirstBitcoin_ team
Felix is a Bitcoin Education superstar--last year he joined the @MyfirstBitcoin_ Node Network and taught the #BitcoinDiploma to 16 students. This year over 300 have already signed up. That's in addition to his goal of onboarding 100 local businesses in Nairobi
He teaches online so while it is mostly Kenyans, students can join from anywhere. A star pupil last year-- @PallabJD1 -- was so inspired that he continued studying, translated the Diploma into his local language of Assamese, started his own Bitcoin Education project and is the first node to join our network from India
All of the above accomplishments were achieved with almost no financial support
For the Feb 29th @MyfirstBitcoin_ Education Unconference we set aside 21% of all ticket sales to a grant for the network. The network is self-governing and choose Felix to receive this grant of about $1,000
The closing of the Unconference was meant to be the announcement and transfer of funds to Felix--showing a tangible example of how we can support each other
Felix wasn't there. Despite having all the required papers, supporting documentation, paid hotel and travel reservations, he was not granted a visa. There are no stamps in his passport--he has still never left Kenya in his life
Felix will still receive the grant--because #Bitcoin does not require permission
I've never met Felix in person and was disappointed that that will have to wait, but this is a potent reminder of what we are fighting for. We are fighting for a world in which Felix was there with all of in Portugal last week. We are fighting for a world in which we--not some politician or bureaucrat--get to define our own destiny
Hope to see you soon @MukunguFelix!

Hello World, weโve been hard at work the past year finding circular economies and education teams all over the world to build open source bitcoin education together.
We call this initiative the โNode Networkโ โ it is a group of educators from all over the world who believe that bitcoin education should be impartial, high quality, and led by educators in the community.
Over the next days, weโll be sharing the progress that weโve made together.

Bitcoin is more than a currency; itโs a tool for empowerment.
Our unconference model reflects the core ethos of decentralization.
Join us in Madeira, Portugal on Feb 29 as we pave the way for independent, community-led Bitcoin education:
https://miprimerbitcoin.io/tickets/
In November we tried something new
We hosted an Independent Bitcoin Education Unconference in El Salvador
We planned some speakers, but also left time at the day's start for everyone present to participate in filling out the rest of the schedule. The goal, like so much of what @MyfirstBitcoin_ does, was to try and learn from #Bitcoin itself and move toward decentralization and giving agency to the individual
It was a wild success. So much so that we decided to organize them internationally in 2024. We will continue to learn, document the process & open source everything by this years end. We believe that our particular version, focused on grassroots Bitcoin education efforts, will create stronger communication channels to share best practices, strengthen individual projects and speed up the timeline. We also hope to encourage others within the Bitcoin space to apply the concept in their own way, within their own focus
Our first Unconference of the year will be Feb 29th in Madeira, Portugal, one day before @BitcoinAtlantis
Come to learn, come to teach, come to change the world

The last day to apply to be a speaker is TOMORROW
is hosting a Bitcoin Education unconference in San Salvador on Nov 6 (the day before Adopting BTC El Salvador)
What is an unconference & why did we choose this format?
An unconfernce is decentralized and meant to empower the individual participant at the expense of a centralized body. In a true unconference the agenda isn't even set ahead of time, but rather at the start of the day by whoever attends.
We'll do a hybrid model for this first attempt:
The event will be divided into three areas. Indoors will be a more traditional setting with speakers, a stage, a microphone and lots of chairs facing one direction. Outside there will be a pre-organized space for thematic discussions, each with a lead to keep the group on track, but open for all to contribute. In the true spirit of an unconference, which is decentralized and where content and direction is decided by all participants, there will be an additional space outside whose schedule will be made the day of the event.
Why this format?
Because part of the mission of @MyfirstBitcoin_ is to empower the individual; another part is to reimagine what's possible. This means we try a lot of new things. Then we learn from the experience and we do it better the next time.
We are NOT trying to copy 'success' in the legacy world. We are trying to reimagine it. Read more, apply to be a speaker & buy your ticket at the link in the comment below.

Vision and invitation to the @MyfirstBitcoin_ unconference on Nov 6:
This conference isnโt for people who want to teach how to get rich, this is for those who want to teach how to get free.
This isn't about Bitcoin, but rather what Bitcoin will teach us: critical thought, personal responsibility and ultimately self-sovereignty. Bitcoin teaches us to lower our time preference and look further into the futureโand that changes everything. When we have control over our lives and future, it encourages us to build and plan.
Bitcoin allows us to define our destiny.
And if the point is to allow people to think for themselves then itโs so important that we, as educators, do not dictate to students what to believe but rather allow them to arrive at their own conclusions. We live in a world where we are constantly told what to think; this must be different.
This conference is about revolution.
Itโs about sharing best practices, creating international communication channels and entrenching an idea whose time has come: that independent, impartial, community-led Bitcoin education will change the world.
The event will be divided into two areas. Indoors there will be a stage, a microphone and lots of chairs for speakers. Outside there will be thematic discussions, each with a lead to keep the group on track, but open for all to contribute.
Join us. We are more than the sum of our parts.
