Adopting Bitcoin 2024

Satoshi meets Maria
2024-11-16 , Finney Stage

Satoshi Nakamoto meets Maria Montessori. Both are pioneers in their respective fields and have many things in common. You could go as far and speculate that Satoshi went to a Montessori school!


In this talk, we explore the intersection of Montessori education and Bitcoin, connecting the philosophies of Maria Montessori and Satoshi Nakamoto. By blending Montessori’s emphasis on independence, critical thinking, and real-world application with Bitcoin’s principles of financial sovereignty and empowerment, we aim to create a unique educational framework. Join us to see why Satoshi went to a Montessori school – or why not?!

At the age of 30 Jens Wegmann left the public school system and became the principal of a Montessori school in Germany. He gained deep insights into the education system and decided to do things differently. His school is considered the No. 1 Bitcoin school in Germany. As a huge fan of the Montessori method, he is teaching self-efficacy and therefore also brings Bitcoin into the classroom. His major goal is to bring Bitcoin in schools throughout Germany.
