In 2023, we distributed 50 Blockstream Jades to top students in our classes in El Salvador. This year, one thousand devices will be distributed to the leading nodes within the My First Bitcoin Node Network.
This network consists of 68 projects from over 35 countries, all of which teach financial literacy in their local communities using our open-source Bitcoin Diploma workbook. Weโre grateful to @Blockstream for this opportunity and for providing free tools to global educational projects, empowering students with wallets for hands-on, practical learning experiences.
Weโre honored by Blockstreamโs donation of 1,000 Jade Classics. Placing these devices in under-resourced classrooms will let a thousand students experience true self-custody and learn Bitcoinโs principles of decentralization, privacy, and ownership from day one โ advancing our mission of financial empowerment while extending a warm welcome to the newcomers embarking on their Bitcoin journey.
