Through this partnership, Filipinos will have the opportunity to engage in cryptocurrency courses and educational short-form content online, starting with an in-depth exploration of the Economics of Bitcoin. The course will be taught by Saifedean Ammous, author of the best-selling book "The Bitcoin Standard," who is renowned for his expertise in educating individuals about Bitcoin and its underlying economics.

The Economics of Bitcoin course will delve into the history of money, from its earliest forms to the current fiat currency system, before delving into the specifics of Bitcoin, including its scarcity, limited supply, and fungibility. Furthermore, it will address the broader implications of Bitcoin on the future of financial systems and its transformative impact on the concept of money.

This initiative is set to make the course available to all 18 million Coins users by May, marking a significant milestone in ensuring that every Filipino has access to top-tier cryptocurrency education. The goal is to make learning about cryptocurrency accessible and engaging, catering to learners of all ages and at various stages of their cryptocurrency journey.
