2024-11-16 –, Bitcoin Para Ninos
A relaxed discussion on how to introduce the topic of Bitcoin to youngsters, whether in schools, courses, or at home. The session aims to engage the audience, especially kids and teens, by inviting them to share their thoughts on what the guests are saying, how they’d prefer to be taught, and their preferred methods for learning new things, especially about complex topics like Bitcoin, money, financial sovereignty, and technology.
I am a freedom-loving entrepreneur, author, and game designer. I am a proponent of finding freedom by taking self-custody of education, money and speech. My wife, Tali, and I founded Free Market Kids with a driving passion to give the next generation the knowledge and tools to maximize their chances for freedom, success and happiness. Happy Hodling!
