WALL OF LOVE

Personally, I was able to familiarize myself more deeply with concepts I only knew at a surface level. I was also able to get myself up-to-date with many recent developments. And, a special shoutout goes to the other weekly clubs conducted by Bitshala that I attended alongside the cohort — Bitcoin Optech Club, Reading Club, and the PR Review Club. They covered a ton of additional information, and attending them is a must for anyone who wants to stay up-to-date with everything happening in Bitcoin.
 I can assure you that anyone who is able to stick through the entire Mastering Bitcoin cohort will gain a better understanding of Bitcoin than 99% of people and will be in a good position to grab opportunities in the Bitcoin space or start something of their own.

on Mastering Bitcoin

Anyone spending four hours of their evenings, in a week, can gain valuable knowledge and experience about technical, economic and philosophical landscape of Bitcoin. The community makes learning fun and effective for me.

The questions and practical exercises. I think they are very well designed to make you deeply reflect on the studied topic. It help me a lot to consolidate knowledge. The kindle and super fast support from bitshala team and the rest of bitshala comunity. Sharing knowledge, experience and a lot of good stuff. I was awesome to me you all. I loved the day when instead of following the planned agenda and discussing the weekly questions, there was a debate on philosophical and profound topics about money and bitcoin. It was great!
