Congrats to you for your completion of the course! Would you tell us about the concepts you learned?
I can tell you that I have been walking in the crypto world for between 2 and 3 years. Moving into altcoins, I was terrified of Bitcoin (expensive, technical, high) I didn't see it as being able to access it.
The Cuba_Bitcoin community launches the call for the 3rd edition of MFB, in person, as I live on a separate island I could not attend and I told them that if at some point they did it online I could be there. My big surprise, the 4th edition of MFB would be a dual format, online and in person, I immediately filled out the form. I was accepted. What a blessing.
Let's go to the chicken rice with chicken. Concepts I learned. Firstly, fiat money is a scam, which is a mechanism of modern slavery, which does not meet the requirements of the money within them, which is not a reserve of value because it is inflationary. Then I learned that Bitcoin as money has all the qualities and compared to GOLD it is easier to transport. So another point in favor of Bitcoin. Because it is decentralized, it cannot be confiscated, and no one can determine its direction in an authoritarian manner. There is a community that, together with developers, improves it.
I also learned that Bitcoin is the only asset that does not cause divisions, but rather brings people together. It makes them be better human beings.
Technically I learned the importance of working with Bitcoin-only wallets, open source and self-custody. I also learned to work with Lightning self-custody wallets and I have even opened my channel in Phoenix, haha, it seemed impossible to me but I did it. I understood what UTXOs mean and how to work with them, although the mempool is the example of how the network is working, I learned to determine the best time to use mining commissions in our transactions or consolidation, channel opening and things like that.
I learned that mining commissions depend on the size of the transaction and not the amount of BTC.
I have had to learn Linux, hardware wallet, we talk about Multisignature.
In a relatively short time I have had a very rapid knowledge acquisition curve thanks to this project.
Thank you Cuba_Bitcoin and everyone who has helped me.
Now it's my turn to help others on my Island
