Overview

The Decoding Bitcoin Cohort is an intermediate, hands-on experience focused on teaching students how to interact with Bitcoin Core using the command-line interface (CLI). This program covers everything from creating transactions to advanced scripting techniques. You will get a strong foundation in Bitcoin development. By using interactive methods, participants will gain practical skills using buildt in learning tools on the Decoding Bitcoin learning platform.

Who should join?

The cohort is geared towards bitcoiners with intermediate knowledge of Bitcoin who are looking to deepen their technical understanding. Whether you’re a developer, engineer, or just a curious bitcoiner, this cohort will provide the knowledge needed to advance your technical skills. It’s especially suitable for those who want to go beyond theory and roll up their sleeves to jump into the technical side of Bitcoin.

What you need to know?

To participate, you should already be familiar with Bitcoin fundamentals. It would be good if you have already gone through Mastering Bitcoin Study Cohort, but it’s not mandatory. What’s most important is your excitement for working with the command line and learning about Bitcoin in a more technical way.

What’s it in for you?

Understanding of Bitcoin Core: Learn of Bitcoin Core operations and how it functions.

Advanced Scripting Skills: Understand advanced scripting to create customized Bitcoin scripts and smart contracts.

Collaborative Learning: Hold each other accountable within the community of learners through weekly learning sessions, discussions and shared experiences.

Certificate: Earn a completion certificate showcasing your achievement and proof of work.

Preparation for Advanced Topics: Open doors to further study, including Chaincode Labs fellowships and Programming Bitcoin.

Associate/Fellowship Opportunities: Get paid to be a bitcoiner and give back to the community.

What is the Bitcoin Indonesia Associate/Fellow?

Students will be placed in smaller groups each week to answer questions related to the week’s assessment. After self-studying the material, participants will join their individual group discussions to explain their answers in a “hot seat” after which the discussion will take place.

Following these discussions, Technical Assistants will be here to answer any technical questions.
