I just finished Digital Currencies course, University of Nicosia MOOC

University of Nicosia offers this free course INTRODUCTION TO DIGITAL CURRENCIES, so I decide to give it a try. It came out to be one of the best time investment, the content is accurate and updated, the staff is superb. As part of the MOOC (Massive Open Online Course) All this coming from the Blockchain Initiative https://digitalcurrency.unic.ac.cy/free-introductory-mooc/ and is the same first course of the MSc in Digital Currency degree programme.

Some of the topicis covered (fall 2017):
-History of Money
-Basics of Cryptocurrency
-Bitcoin, typical and alternative uses
-Alternatives to Bitcoin (AltCoins)
-Aspects of Financial Institutions, Regulatory and taxes
-Digital Currencies and under developed countries

This formal training I consider fundamental for better understanding Blockchain technology and its implications in human life.

Did somebody else here at Steemit took it? share your thoughts.
