In this guide, I've tried to put together some of the most recommended Bitcoin and blockchain online courses. This library was compiled based on the recommendations of news and educational resources dedicated to cryptocurrency and blockchain technology. All courses are presented with links to EdX, Coursera and FutureLearn. I am aware that there are lots of online platforms but I picked the aforementioned three platforms because 1)of the quality of the course contents. They are offered by top universities all over the world. 2) they contain courses on Bitcoin and blockchain. The links at the time of the creation of the guide are working and do not contain referral codes.
The courses are free but you will have to pay to receive a degree. If you cannot not afford the fee, you can apply for financial aid.
Here's is a financial aid template that I always use that works for me I have provided a short description about each courses which are taken from
EdX,
Coursera, and
FutureLearn. At the time of this writing, all courses are available.
I did not include Udemy because anybody can create his own course. Which means quality of courses vary a lot. Another reason is that you won’t get a degree.
If you find a error, please let me know about it. Also in this guide, you can add your favorite Bitcoin and blockchain courses that you think are worth taking. Thanks.
