According to a press release sent by Bitcoin Magazine, the course aims to educate participants on the operation and possibilities of developing a Layer 2 solution that operates on top of the Bitcoin network.
Jimena Vallone, the executive director of Bitcoin Argentina, stated, “With Bitcoin Argentina NGO, we want to bring awareness about this technology and create practical and theoretical spaces that allow professionals, specialists, users and interested parties to examine its uses and potential. .”
The course, starting May 23, will be taught by prominent specialists in the field, including Nicolás Bourbon, Francisco Calderon, Federico Andragnes and members of Librería de Satoshi, Laura Medina and Gustavo Torres.
