Welcome to the next step in your crypto education journey. In this course, we turn our focus from the blockchain technology itself to the cryptocurrencies that run on these networks. By the end of this course, that mysterious world of Bitcoin, Ethereum, and thousands of other coins will start to make sense. You’ll learn what cryptocurrencies are, why they exist, and how people use them in the real world. We’ll keep things simple and practical, building on what you learned about blockchain in Course 1 without overwhelming jargon.
This course is designed in five modules that gradually introduce you to cryptocurrency fundamentals. We’ll start with basic definitions and concepts, then explore the major cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum, move on to different categories of coins (including stablecoins), and finally cover how to get started with crypto safely. The modules build on each other, so by the end you’ll have a coherent understanding of the crypto ecosystem. You don’t need any prior financial or technical expertise – we’ll explain everything in plain language with real-life examples.
