Professor Susan Athey's presentation on “Blockchain and the Future of Finance" at the University of Stanford Graduate School provoked one student to protest its “multiple misstatements” about Bitcoin and its fundamentals.
Betschart says that the program’s primary goal is to get more software developers to contribute to Bitcoin’s open source projects: He and his team are “not interested in making a profit.”
"The thing that makes Bitcoin hard to get started on is the cryptography, and that's hard because the math is not familiar to developers." Fortunately, there are experts out there ready to help.
The Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST), is working with Theta Labs to introduce students to an entirely new set of coursework regarding the applications of blockchain technology.
The company’s offerings include some educational tools as well as a “Crypto Bundle” that are designed to take some of the trepidation out of a new user’s first crypto purchase.
Students will spend the week learning from experienced mentors as they build their own Lightning-based apps and then demo their projects on the final day of class.
