1/ Putting Bitcoin into the hands of kids has always been a huge goal of mine.

2 of my 4 kids are Bitcoiners.

Anyone who hangs out with 12 year olds & up knows that they know a lot more about $ than most of us assume.

Many of them already earn, save & lend.

2/ To 12ylds & 16ylds alike, Bitcoin is no more complicated to learn than our current archaic financial system.

'QT' is not easier to grasp than 'fixed supply'.

Knowledge of 'credit card charge backs' & 'pending transactions' is not something you're born with.

#satsforstudents

3/ To that end, we are designing a full student program at #MassiveAdoption - to allow young people, mostly from underprivileged backgrounds, to not only learn about Bitcoin, blockchains & digital assets, but to receive some BTC sats to start on the BTC path.

4/ Thanks to YOU we have already raised ~$6000, almost all crypto, to cover meals & direct expenses.

And yesterday @TQTezos committed $1500 to supporting our students receiving BTC sats (satoshis) so they can become coiners.

5/ #Tezos is our 2nd institutional donor; @minuteschool committed $1500 to funding our student program as well.

Thank you both! and thank you to every individual and every anonymous donor as well.

6/ Imagine: a 14-year-old walks into #MassiveAdoption @ @FedexInstitute on Thursday Nov 7, a non-coiner, & walks out 2 days later having learned bt BTC, DeFi, edu opportunities, job ops & how to #stacksats, with dApps, wallets & 'Bitcoin on their phones'

#satsforstudents

7/ If you'd like each child to receive a quarter, 50¢ or $1 worth of satoshis (BTC sats) from you

donations can be made anonymously or w/full branding & attribution. All $ goes to students

$100 for 400 students to receive 25¢ in sats
$200 for 50¢ each & so on

#satsforstudents

8/ This is a great opportunity for brands, investors & individuals who don't want a booth or to participate in our commercial program at #MassiveAdoption to get their name out while supporting a great cause: #satsforstudents

Lots of good karma & exposure on a smaller budget.
