Should Your Student Learn About Bitcoin?
My Conversation with Wesley Schlemmer
I recently spoke with Wesley Schlemmer, President and Co-Founder of BitcoinBay.Live. Part of BitcoinBay’s mission is to teach young people about Bitcoin. Click below to listen to my conversation with Wesley and find out whether your student should learn about Bitcoin:
To connect with Wesley, and to learn about their Bitcoin Bootcamps, go to BitcoinBay.Live or email him at Wesley@BicoinBay.Live.
In addition to connecting with Wesley and his organization, I highly recommend The Bitcoin Standard by Saifedean Ammous. This book was my introduction to Bitcoin, and is considered by many as the “Bitcoin Bible.”
Here are some of the other links that Wesley mentioned:

Study: More than half of students lost 39% of year’s learning over summer
Keep your student active and engaged this summer while giving them the tools and strategies to win scholarships so they can go to college debt-free!
The Scholarship Summer Camp begins tomorrow, June 12, 2023! However, the program is asynchronous and on-demand. So, no matter your student’s schedule, they can participate in the Scholarship Summer Camp on a schedule that works for them.
Students learn about the tools needed for scholarship success. And, as an added bonus, they will get my Scholarship Tracking Tool preloaded with easy scholarships that they can apply for immediately!
Students learn about the 5 Pillars of a Winning Scholarship Application and how to craft their Personal Narrative, which is the key to winning multiple scholarships.
Students learn how to find scholarships and how to have the right scholarships sent to their inbox.
During one week of the Scholarship Summer Camp, students apply for five different scholarships, giving them a chance to win over $7000 in prizes!
Students learn how to answer the common scholarship essay question, “Why do you deserve to win this scholarship?” (Hint: The correct response is NOT that you need the money!) Best of all, they learn by applying for a real scholarship!
Students learn how to craft a response to the common scholarship topic of distracted driving. Again, students learn by applying for a real scholarship!
Students learn about responding to topical scholarships. To do this, students will enter a scholarship all about video games!
During the last week of the Scholarship Summer Camp, students work on a scholarship capstone project in which they can win a $35,000 scholarship! This scholarship offers over $1,300,000 in prizes, so there is a huge opportunity to win something, even if your student doesn’t win the top prize.
A new video lesson is released every weekday during the 8-week Scholarship Summer Camp. These are bite-sized lessons and last only a few minutes. Most days, there is a short project for the student to complete. I’ve designed the program so that most students can finish each day’s lesson and project in 30 minutes or less. And, because the program is on-demand, students don’t miss out if they miss a few days. They can catch up whenever it’s convenient for them.
Click here to sign up for the Scholarship Summer Camp today. For less than $100, your student can gain the skills, tools, and strategies to help them pay for college!
