Finally I have used part of my campaign money to buy Laptop for the Village High School for Bitcoin Practical classes. The practical Class was so much fun. Even teachers came and participated and learn new things. The followings were taught and learned in the first practical class.
1.   Bitcoin Core
2.   Wallets
3.   Basic Trading/Investment

1. Bitcoin Core. It is an open source of software which is used to connect bitcoin users as node. Bitcoin Core was created by Satoshi Nakamoto and developed by Wladimir van der Laan. https://bitcoincore.org/en/about/ ,
2. Wallets. As the name implies, it is an object or application (app/sofware) which is used to keep, stored valuable things in one’s life. Such valuable things like, passport, ID card, coin, paper money, ring, documents etc. but in this context we discussed crypto wallets (bitcoin wallet)
i. Crypto-Currency Wallets: as the name implies, it is a wallet meant to store or keep only for crypto currencies online. E.g. Trezor, Electrum, and Mycelium, etc. Crypto –Currency wallets are subdivided into two.

Two types of wallets:
1. Online/hot wallet
2. Offline cold wallet

Online wallets are of three types:
1. Web wallet: as the name implies, it is a wallet that uses online
2. Mobile wallet: as the name implies, it is a wallet uses mobile phones. Eg. Android wallet, Apple/Iphone (IOS) Wallet
3. Desktopwallet: as the implies, it is a wallet uses computer either desktop or laptop.

Cold wallet are:
1. Paper wallet, if properly generated on air gapped device
2. Reputed hardware wallet
3. Wallet generated on air gapped device such Electrum cold storage

In conclussion
Please permit me to appreciate these users that helped me to successfully did the transaction to buy the laptop and internet modem for the school to do bitcoin practical. Such users are: RickDeckard , Charles-Tim , nc50lc , NeuroticFish , DireWolfM14 , The Pharmacist , Pmalek , Cricktor, smartvirus on the thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5405437.new#new Really at a time I was confused what to do so I asked the question here and they helped me out. I really appreciate and grateful to them.

However, i seconded this too. Although a basic trading is not that bad, i guess teaching them the idea of financially literacy will cause more good than bad when these kids tried on trading.

Yea I do agree with this one. I mean trading is a very higggghhhhh riskk even for professional traders can still lose. teaching them about finances and how to invest in a safer way would be great. and teach about how cryptocurrency work and how compare it with centralized financial system.

I would focus more on teaching the properties of sound money applied to Bitcoin instead of teaching the scoundrels of trading.

You'll turn to be an inspiration for the kids that learn out of the efforts from you. What you sow will get reaped. With the efforts put forth you'll get the best results out of it. In particular what you do now will be continued by the kids that learn from you. Maybe our forum can create some program to educate people conducting seminars through the users residing in specific locations. Here Agbe is there, same as this everywhere we can't see people with similar mindset.

Not everyone deserve him but his good deed is unmeasurable considering he donated his own money to buy a new laptop for the purpose of helping the school and the children. A very good initiative that most people won't do but I hope someday you will get what you deserve and I'd like to see those children in the future making difference just like what you did. Not everyone can do it but they will be forever grateful of what you did to them to help them learn something that most schools won't teach it since it's a crypto.

To the OP:
Allow me a positive criticism.

You are doing an outstanding job there, no question about that. However, if I were wearing your shoes, I would focus more on teaching the properties of sound money applied to Bitcoin instead of teaching the scoundrels of trading. Trading might deveplop the wrong mindset in youngsters as they will be likely to pay more attention to the quick profits of trading, than to understand the economic underlyings of Bitcoin. Trading may drive students to the shitcoinery and create the opposite effect we all seek which is Bitcoin educations, adoption, etc.

Totally recommendable and good initiative on what Op did and hope that others will be doing the same into those remote places on where bitcoin or crypto hadnt been heard off on which on this way at least do spread
up some awareness even on the smallest way or method as possible.It might not really be a huge step but it still something a thing that we do all appreciate because it do really adds up on overall
awareness and recognition of Bitcoin and on whole crypto market. Even myself wont really be seeing on able to achieve on buying a laptop just for the sake of such goal or
target in mind on spreading awareness.

Very commendable OP, I like the involvement and the fact that many users on this forum are taking it upon themselves to educate and teach people both the young and old around them especially in the grassroot and developing countries about crypto. Just the other day, I read about how another user from this forum rented laptops to facilitate learning about crypto in the school he was posted to for his national assignment, these acts should be emulated by other users here.

If we really love bitcoins the way you say you do, ask yourself what role you are playing to facilitate its growth and adoption. You don't need to organize huge lectures/seminars, or spend money on laptops, a simple material like a flyer that is catchy and easily summarize what bitcoin is, can go a long way. let us all get involved.

You are very kind because of donated the money you earned from the forum especially because you donated it for the educational purpose and I'm a fan of doing these donations because instead of giving people free money to spend when they need some money you can give them a chance to educate and this will help them to supply their needs themselves also they maybe do the same thing for other people when they get the same situation as you do, also the good point of this donation is about the source of the donation which is a signature campaign and this can be another positive point to say how bitcoin can help people when they need it.

Besides bitcoin, it's also bitcointalk forum making the difference in people's lives. Many of you might think not, but signature campaigns are a life changing for dozens or maybe hundreds of common citizens who wouldn't have any opportunites to thrive financially if it wasn't for this forum and the services promoting their brands here.

It's the solution for those who can't find a solution for themselves on their local areas and regions, while at same time it's a tool to help those precarious areas to thrive somehow, like OP did purchasing a laptop to share knowledge with his village.

The capitalist society has made virtue of selflessness a very scarce commodity. People are desperately looking for avenue to collect from the society. They want to profit from every service they render to the society. But I am really touched by Agbe's uncommon drive to bless humanity. Selfless giving is providing for people that don't have the resources to give back. You have done what the government has not done. I want to encourage you that you keep on doing good regardless of the challenges you might face in the course of blessing humanity. I am humbled and wish I can also join in this task of empowering humanity.

It is always nice to see that someone is doing something that can bring real changes in society, and in this case it is an ordinary laptop, with the help of which children can probably use the Internet for the first time and have access to information. Personally, I would like these children to have at least slightly better conditions in their classrooms, and I hope that something will change for the better in the future.

Who knows, maybe some of these children will become members of this forum one day and also do good deeds for other children.

You care so much about education there that you are willing to spend your money to donate a Laptop resulting from a BTC paid campaign so this is indeed a very good initiative for Agbe as a teacher who provides important education towards learning Bitcoin to them.

I hope you don't stop and continue to fight for their education because I see you are so active and passionate about doing it, this is a great fight in your country but will appreciate a lot for your work providing bitcoin education to them.

Thank you for this move in the right direction, I like the fact that your class covers secondary school, this will serve as a basic level guide to they crypto currency journey in the future and that will help them to become financially free from the bondage of the bank and the traditional financial institutions. I love the fact that you are teaching them wallet and the usage because that is the basic step to securing they finances through Bitcoin even if they don't have other technical knowledge for now and i hope you will advance your good job further by covering and teaching them other profitable sectors such as information technology e.g coding, software development and programming I learned that students of that age and class learn to code faster than another age bracket.

Agbe you will be the pioneer of where you live and your contribution to education will bear fruit in the future. Believe that you will use it in the future, and continue this kind of struggle because you are a teacher who deserves to be supported. I think your second step after this https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/bitcoin-class-in-my-village-high-school-5403925 then it shows a change for the better. I will save this thread as a file that must be saved for evaluation of how Bitcoin really should be used as learning material in schools.

Wonderful initiative there, Agbe. I hope you continue to contribute to the cryptocurrency ecosystem by introducing it to youngsters, but more importantly the contribution you've made to these youngsters' lives is so commendable I find my words lacking to express how appreciative and proud I am of you.

I don't know how much help I really offered, but if there's anything I can do to help you further please don't hesitate to ask.

Cold wallet are:
1. Paper wallet, if properly generated on air gapped device
2. Reputed hardware wallet
3. Wallet generated on air gapped device such Electrum cold storage

There are basically two schools of thought when it comes to hardware wallets. Some would put them in the 'cold wallets' camp but others wouldn't. Then there is the question if they are not cold wallets, are they hot wallets? They are not hot either. The compromise would be to not put them in either camp but add a new section just called hardware wallets. They are cold in the sense that the private keys and seeds don't touch the internet, but they are hot because they are used on computers connected to the internet.

Keep doing good and don't get discouraged for making some mistakes here and there. And don't overwhelm the kids with too much information to create an opposite effect where they lose interest in Bitcoin instead.

Excellent work!

That’s amazing OP & thank you for sharing. Really nice to see positive stories coming from the forum regarding signature campaigns. I see lots of people moaning about signature campaigns & sometimes spamming but this is an example of why they should never be stopped.

Good luck to you OP & all the children that this helps.
