Saving Satoshi - Learn Bitcoin Programming

For those interested in learning about Bitcoin I wanted to share this open source gamified learning resource called Saving Satoshi.

https://savingsatoshi.com/

I’ve gotten through what was complete at the time, up to chapter 10. To be honest I found it a bit opaque and incomplete, especially the Python path, which seems to have had less focus than the JS path. However, I learned a lot and found it very rewarding. It’s open source, much like fCC, so if you find places it can be improved you can open PRs on github.

One huge thing it was missing was a great community like this to talk about the problems. Obviously a ton of work is going into that project and overall I found it very fun and rewarding.

Hopefully we can talk about it here if you need help or want to discuss.

I wanted to share this in the Programming section but I got an error. This is specifically about programming, using JS or Python. It’s not about buying, selling or trading or anything like that.

Thank you for bringing this up. The amount of spam and scams mentioning bitcoin is high. So, I will look into an alternative to allow this, and keep it consistent across sub-forums.

For what it’s worth Bitcoin is what got me interested in programming again and I’d love to talk about it more on this forum. It didn’t seem appropriate before but now I think it could be an area of growth.

Well, someone beat me to it :man_shrugging:

I did very much get engrossed in distributed systems and PoW, in my early days.
