FAQs

This beginner-friendly course is designed for anyone who wants to understand the fundamentals of crypto and blockchain. You don’t need prior finance or tech knowledge—just curiosity and an open mind. By the end, you’ll have the tools to navigate the crypto landscape, explain blockchain concepts clearly, and take your first steps into the world of digital assets.

What is it?

Cryptocurrency has moved from a niche experiment to a global financial force. With millions of users and billions of dollars flowing through blockchain networks every day, understanding this space is no longer optional—it’s essential. Whether you’re curious about Bitcoin, Ethereum, NFTs, or the mechanics behind blockchain, this course will give you the foundation you need.

You’ll start by exploring the history and evolution of cryptocurrency, from the creation of Bitcoin to today’s diverse ecosystem of tokens and decentralized apps. We’ll break down how blockchain technology works in simple terms, covering key ideas like distributed ledgers, mining, and consensus mechanisms.

From there, you’ll learn about wallets and exchanges—how to store, send, and trade crypto safely. We’ll also cover the risks, from market volatility to scams, and the importance of security. Real-world case studies will show how blockchain is being used beyond currency, in areas like supply chain, voting, and digital ownership.

By the end of this course, you’ll be able to confidently explain how cryptocurrencies and blockchains function, make informed decisions when exploring the crypto market, and understand the potential (and limitations) of this revolutionary technology.
