Blockchain technology is increasingly gaining interest, particularly due to its applications in business and finance.
The technology has been around for >11 years and is often viewed as too complex to understand. When companies, students, or the public is educated on the use cases, blockchain’s way of functioning is either skipped altogether or comprehensively explained in far too much technical detail.
Demand for accessible blockchain education that neither oversimplifies the underlying technology, nor overwhelms its audience, is rising: 56 % of the world’s top 50 universities now offer at least one course on crypto or blockchain — up from 42 % in 2018.
We want to teach the teacher. We want to build the new masterminds, who can make their own decisions,who can spot, build, and develop use cases,who can say with confidence whether or not blockchain really makes sense for their business or fund, who can supervise and execute blockchain projects,who can market a blockchain product in the most relevant way, and who have internalized the benefits and drawbacks of the technology.

We played the game at Boston College as part of my "Business Applications of Blockchain" lecture’s curriculum, and the students absolutely loved it! The simulation really builds up the important aspects of how transactions are hashed, linked, mined, and verified, all step-by-step with mini-practice rounds after each, before students really have to mine some transactions end-to-end.
As the one leading through the game, I had a great experience too. After each of the concepts taught and practiced, there is the time to pause to bring in anecdotes or answer questions. The instructions are really clear and the team was happy to help out when we had questions. I had a lot of students approaching me after class telling me that they finally understood what some of the concepts really meant, which is really crucial if you want to really grasp what blockchain is and if you somehow want to work in the field of blockchain, so I will definitely use it again!

I am really glad we opted to play the simulation in our classroom! It is really interactive as each participant plays a miner on their own laptops, which delivers a great learning experience. We decided to make it more competitive and gave out prizes depending on the final scoreboard, but it could equally be played in a more executive setting. The design is really modern and minimal, the wording engaging but professional, and the industry use case really versatile, so it really speaks to a broad audience.
