Context: recently I was hired by an university to teach about blockchain and put together some resources I found to teach bitcoin in the most interactive way I can ocur. I'm going to display all the resources and if you see I miss something that can help me, please, let me know. Here we go.

If they don't know how to start cryptography

Crypto 101

How blockchain works

Chaincode Seminars (some parts)
Blockchain Demo
Blockchain Demo simulator
I find interesting and easy to see the blocks in Blockstream, Mempool and OXT
Mempool Observer to analyze a block. This is beautiful, so sats goes for him if upvoted.
TxStreet is very fun to watch.

How to create a wallet (simulator)

Other perspective

Gensler's MIT course

My goal is to people see how it works combining lots of graphs, pictures and interaction for they do it on their own. Shill me your resources.

I like how you start out with Cryptography. Everything is a lot clearer when you already know that stuff.

It's a must sir. Lots of things come clearer once you know stuff like that.

Your collection of resources is commendable, emphasizing a hands-on, interactive approach. To enhance the educational journey of the students at the university, consider the following resources I have come up with:

Real-World Use Cases:
- Blockchain Use Cases: Blockgeeks offers a comprehensive guide to various blockchain use cases across industries, providing practical examples for students to explore.
Security Best Practices:
- Bitcoin.org - Securing Your Wallet: Direct students to the official Bitcoin.org guide on securing wallets, offering practical tips and best practices for ensuring the safety of digital assets.
Blockchain Developer Tools:
- Remix: Remix is an open-source web and desktop application that helps users write, deploy, and debug Ethereum smart contracts.
- Truffle Suite: Truffle is a development environment, testing framework, and asset pipeline for Ethereum, making it easier for developers to work with the Ethereum blockchain.
Community Engagement:
- Stack Exchange - Bitcoin: Stack Exchange's Bitcoin community is an excellent resource for technical Q&A, providing a platform for students to seek and share knowledge.

I hope these resources complement your existing collection. I can shill more if you need me to do that :)

I assume that they already know what Bitcoin is, otherwise diving directly into blockchains seems difficult to understand.

Padawan Wallet is a good tool for training newbies.

I learned a lot from Learning Bitcoin from the Command Line. And Mastering Bitcoin ofc, even if not interactive.

I encourage all people in the class to read Mastering Bitcoin and Grooking Bitcoin.

Haven't seen this before. Looks like the sats/vb are a little out at the moment

That's right. Altough I use this resource because the bus is the block and the bus stop is your mempool. Easy to explain and play with timestamps

Bitcoin Everything in 21 pages from Bitcoin Reserve is one of the best resources by far. We always use it in the orange pilling process as it helps to hand out a physical copy. It has driven our orange pilling success rate through the roof. And it is Bitcoin only!
