Scenes from @HODLdesign 5th iteration today. 300 minutes with 4 curious designers.
None of them came in thinking that bitcoin needed them but towards the end, all of them wanted to get more involved with designing in bitcoin. Such amazing energy.
Gradually, then suddenly.
I had a great experience attending the Bitcoin UX workshop @HODLdesign! Appreciate how thoughtful you guys were, and the amount of care & effort you have put in. Good conversations, lots of learning, pizza lunch, protein bars, and a room full of curiosity. #UXDesign
We have alot of updates for @HODLdesign from past couple months, the education side, the studio side.
What we realized early on was that this can’t be a one-off workshop so currently we’re also working on converting this intro workshop into a 8-workshop cohort where we will be taking participants from an intro to bitcoin to making their first contribution to bitcoin.
Alot of exciting things are in the works. We'll keep sharing what comes next.

We ran @HODLdesign for the fourth time. Same workshop, similar format, a different group of designers in the room.
But after running this four times, the experience has shifted for us. The first workshop was an experiment while the fourth one felt like something we can read patterns in.
So instead of walking through the workshop again, this thread is about what those patterns are starting to tell us.
(For anyone who doesn’t know about our bitcoin design workshops, here’s how we run it: https://t.co/MkPHm919lJ)

Twice in two weeks @veronika_dorson & me ran @HODLdesign!
The second session went so well that we found ourselves running it again the following Saturday.
Which means I’m writing about both of them at once.
Here’s everything that unfolded across those two Saturdays 👇🏼...
