Description

The first step towards Bitcoin adoption

Today, anyone can learn about Bitcoin online but what’s often missing is the chance to meet, exchange ideas, and build together. To fill this gap, many bitcoiners form local communities, where meetups spark workshops, presentations, and meaningful discussions.

In BTC304, we’ll look at why community building matters, explore tools for creating a strong visual and digital identity, and share simple, open-source projects you can launch. We’ll also consider how local initiatives scale into national communities that can help drive a hyperbitcoinized future.

Welcome to PlanB.network! I'm Thomas, a.k.a. @ProfEduStream, and I first became interested in Bitcoin through mining. Subsequently, having familiarized myself with data analysis and Python, I quickly became interested in on-chain analysis; particularly in the analysis of transactions from blocks 1 to 210000. In 2023, I began writing articles titled "Bitcoin Blockchain Fun Facts" on my Substack. In parallel, as a teacher, I have a deep passion for sharing my knowledge. This is why I co-created the Bitcoin Lille association in France, with which we hold a weekly meet-up. There, I regularly give presentations, both technical and simplified, which are all available open-source on YouTube and my Substack. Finally, I try to bring together communities, both French and international. Because together, we will go much further, much faster.

Clases de Bitcoin muy claras y bien estructuradas. Se explican tanto los fundamentos como los aspectos más técnicos de forma comprensible, con buen enfoque en descentralización, seguridad y pensamiento crítico. Muy recomendable para quien quiera entender Bitcoin de verdad y no solo desde lo superficial.
