Talking very slow and font of the reminal screen is very small. Nothing could be seen. I recomend you to use larger fonts. Correction is needed in the resourses as cd /var/www/{yourdomain}/html/web/yaamp/[core] should be added/backend/

Thank you! A well informed course. My only added point would be to possibly touch on adding coins that are well established in the ecosystem. :-)
