Bitcoin Education with Real Tools

Blockstream Local helps Bitcoin meetups stay engaging and educational. Register your meetup to get free, ready-to-use slide decks on Bitcoin 101 topics: buying, self-custody, and hardware wallets. No need to start from scratch we provide a full curriculum to guide your session.

Bitcoin Education with Real Tools

Teach Bitcoin Simply and Securely

The Blockstream app makes it easy for new users to try Bitcoin self-custody with no seed phrase required at setup. Blockstream will fund your session with real bitcoin to distribute, so you can teach attendees how to receive sats, understand their wallet, and take their first step into sovereignty.
