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.

What I Wish Teachers Taught About Bitcoin, Money, and the World
Bitcoin is money. But if you hear about it in school at all, all you hear about is how people gamble on it and some people get rich while other people lose all their money. No one ever talks about using it as money and a whole new generation are being raised with this false belief. Here's what I wish teachers taught about Bitcoin, money, and the world to really help the next generation use Bitcoin instead of misunderstanding what it is.
