Three months ago, we described a shift: My First Bitcoin was moving from teaching students directly to training the educators who teach in their place. Our Phase 2 Impact Report shows what happened next, that shift started feeding itself.
The flywheel is turning exactly as designed: students become Bitcoiners, Bitcoiners become educators, educators build communities, and those communities produce the next generation. And for the first time, that cycle is sustaining itself.
Right now, it is spinning across 90+ communities in 40+ countries. 195+ active educators are leading cohorts. Together, they have reached 30K+ learners.
In June, the network's second Unconference brought 90+ educators from 25+ countries into one room in Prague: 21 ideas pitched from the floor, and Documentary Episode 2 filmed.
The report also covers the parts organizations do not always publish: a full breakdown of where every dollar goes, the funding gap still ahead of us, and what is next, from the @MyFirstBitcoin_ App to the third and fourth documentary episodes.
The question underneath all of it: what happens when you stop trying to build an organization, and start building people who can build without you?

A Bitcoin course that started in a WhatsApp group after its founder got scammed has now graduated 643 people across 28 countries.
That's @thecore21m, founded by @MukunguFelix in Nairobi. It runs a free online Bitcoin Diploma four times a year, monthly hands-on meetups with @Trezor hardware training, and a circular economy in Githurai called @bitcoingithurai where 16 merchants now accept Bitcoin Lightning payments.
The proof it works: graduates have gone on to start their own projects, from Bitcoin Githurai to Bitcoin School Kenya and many more... The Core also co-hosted Unconference 03 in Nairobi together with @MyFirstBitcoin_, 500+ people, where @EcoBitz_21m, @bitcoinbabies, @Bitsacco, @AfribitKibera and some other amazing Bitcoin projects were present.
On 26 September the meetup lands on a university campus for the first time, at Murang'a University of Technology, capacity doubled to 100.

Sometimes impact starts simply by connecting the right people. 🧡
Through the My First Bitcoin Global Network, we brought FutbolTech and Satoshi Team together — two organizations with different backgrounds but a shared mission: empowering the next generation through education.
Now, that connection is turning into action.
FutbolTech and Satoshi Team are joining forces in Antioquia, Colombia, to bring financial and Bitcoin education into an environment young people already know and love: the football pitch. Their first activities will take place in Medellín and Bello, combining football, financial education, technology, and community.
This is exactly what we want the My First Bitcoin Global Network to enable.

This was a wonderful experience, from understanding the problems with our current money to discussing the future of money and the practical use of Bitcoin.
Dimas is one of the leading voices behind the Bitcoin Indonesia community — and a driving force for Bitcoin education across the country.
When we came to Indonesia to film our documentary *Bigger Than Bitcoin*, Dimas made the journey possible. From Jakarta to Bandung, Surabaya, and Bali, he connected us with educators, communities, and stories that showed us what Bitcoin education looks like on the ground.
Thank you, Dimas, for opening doors, sharing your knowledge, and supporting us every step of the way.
The world needs more people like Dimas.
That’s why we empower educators around the world with open-source resources, tools, infrastructure, and a global network — so they can bring independent Bitcoin education into their own communities.
Our independence comes from being funded by the community we serve: the Bitcoin community. ⚡️
If you believe Bitcoin needs more independent education, help us make it possible.
Support the movement.

One of hundreds of examples of the impact @MyFirstBitcoin_ is having.
Bitcoin is freedom money, and seeing individuals around the world have that ah-hah moment is always special!
We believe Bitcoin needs more education! Education that helps people understand Bitcoin for themselves. That encourages critical thinking instead of telling people what to think. And that remains independent of governments and corporate interests.
That’s what we’re building at My First Bitcoin.
We empower educators around the world with open-source resources, tools, infrastructure, and a global network — so they can bring independent Bitcoin education into their own communities.

My First Bitcoin is restructuring around its Education Network: a smaller team, lower costs, and a single focus—empowering those who empower others.
This is how we scale the mission: we will make it easier for bitcoin educators to get started, and likelier for them to succeed, by building the materials, infrastructure and community a global movement needs. This is the final step in a years-long transition from direct educator to global infrastructure.
My First Bitcoin becomes what the movement needs its center to be: lean, focused, and in service of 213 independent educators and 80+ education projects across 48 countries, each teaching or preparing to teach their own community, in their own language, on their own terms.
The whole My First Bitcoin team is now fully dedicated to growing this Education Network.
