Three months ago, we described a shift: My First Bitcoin was moving from teaching students directly to training the educators who teach in their place. Our Phase 2 Impact Report shows what happened next, that shift started feeding itself.
The flywheel is turning exactly as designed: students become Bitcoiners, Bitcoiners become educators, educators build communities, and those communities produce the next generation. And for the first time, that cycle is sustaining itself.
Right now, it is spinning across 90+ communities in 40+ countries. 195+ active educators are leading cohorts. Together, they have reached 30K+ learners.
In June, the network's second Unconference brought 90+ educators from 25+ countries into one room in Prague: 21 ideas pitched from the floor, and Documentary Episode 2 filmed.
The report also covers the parts organizations do not always publish: a full breakdown of where every dollar goes, the funding gap still ahead of us, and what is next, from the @MyFirstBitcoin_ App to the third and fourth documentary episodes.
The question underneath all of it: what happens when you stop trying to build an organization, and start building people who can build without you?

This was a wonderful experience, from understanding the problems with our current money to discussing the future of money and the practical use of Bitcoin.
Dimas is one of the leading voices behind the Bitcoin Indonesia community — and a driving force for Bitcoin education across the country.
When we came to Indonesia to film our documentary *Bigger Than Bitcoin*, Dimas made the journey possible. From Jakarta to Bandung, Surabaya, and Bali, he connected us with educators, communities, and stories that showed us what Bitcoin education looks like on the ground.
Thank you, Dimas, for opening doors, sharing your knowledge, and supporting us every step of the way.
The world needs more people like Dimas.
That’s why we empower educators around the world with open-source resources, tools, infrastructure, and a global network — so they can bring independent Bitcoin education into their own communities.
Our independence comes from being funded by the community we serve: the Bitcoin community. ⚡️
If you believe Bitcoin needs more independent education, help us make it possible.
Support the movement.

When a precoiner asks you about where they should start to learn about Bitcoin, where do you send them? What's your go-to resource that you confidently give to people?
One of hundreds of examples of the impact @MyFirstBitcoin_ is having.
Bitcoin is freedom money, and seeing individuals around the world have that ah-hah moment is always special!
We believe Bitcoin needs more education! Education that helps people understand Bitcoin for themselves. That encourages critical thinking instead of telling people what to think. And that remains independent of governments and corporate interests.
That’s what we’re building at My First Bitcoin.
We empower educators around the world with open-source resources, tools, infrastructure, and a global network — so they can bring independent Bitcoin education into their own communities.
Our independence comes from being funded by the community we serve: the Bitcoin community.
If you believe Bitcoin needs more independent education, help us make it possible.

My First Bitcoin is restructuring around its Education Network: a smaller team, lower costs, and a single focus—empowering those who empower others.
This is how we scale the mission: we will make it easier for bitcoin educators to get started, and likelier for them to succeed, by building the materials, infrastructure and community a global movement needs. This is the final step in a years-long transition from direct educator to global infrastructure.
My First Bitcoin becomes what the movement needs its center to be: lean, focused, and in service of 213 independent educators and 80+ education projects across 48 countries, each teaching or preparing to teach their own community, in their own language, on their own terms.
The whole My First Bitcoin team is now fully dedicated to growing this Education Network.
