Decoding Cryptocurrency: Exploring Its Inner Workings
Cryptocurrencies have become a buzzword in the financial world, promising to revolutionize how we think about money and transactions. But how do they actually work?

We all know about Bitcoin, but we know nothing about Bitcoin!!!
In this module, we delve into the fundamentals of Bitcoin, covering its definition, key facts, and how it operates. We explore the concept of proof of work, which secures the Bitcoin network, and provide practical guidance on how to buy Bitcoin. Whether you're new to cryptocurrency or looking to deepen your understanding, this module equips you with essential knowledge to navigate the world of Bitcoin confidently.

Non-Fungible Tokens
Do you remember the trend of NFT (Non Fungible Tokens) in 2020? Still do not know what is it? Do not worry! We’ve got you covered! NFT stands for non-fungible tokens. It is generally built using the same kind of programming as cryptocurrency, but that is where the similarity ends. Physical money and cryptocurrency are fungible meaning they can be traded or exchanged for one another. They are also equal in value – one dollar is always worth another dollar, one bitcoin is always equal to another bitcoin. NFTs are different, each has a digital signature that makes it impossible for NFTs to be exchanged for or equal to one another.

Economics of Bitcoin
In this module, we explore Bitcoin's economic fundamentals. Its fixed supply drives scarcity and price dynamics, while blockchain technology reduces transaction costs. Regulatory landscapes globally impact adoption and market stability, influencing Bitcoin's role in fintech innovation amidst volatility and regulatory uncertainties.
