Raising Sovereigns: Parenting for the Bitcoin Standard and a Time of Abundance

We explore how Bitcoin families are decoupling their children's education from the state. Learn how to foster critical thinking, financial literacy, and self-reliance through decentralized learning models that mirror the protocol itself.

We’ll show you how families are using Bitcoin to fund a life of travel, freedom, and real-world education that no textbook can match.

Money & Bitcoin: Modern and Practical Education

Bitcoin can seem a controversial subject in school at first glance. Getting this topic into schools' financial literacy curricula will certainly not be an easy task. The founder and director of INEV will tell us how it can be done. The talk will show how Bitcoin can be used as a practical and comprehensible tool in primary and secondary school teaching, without being about ideology or investment advice.
