Course Description
We currently live in an era of economic paradoxes that have left an indelible impact on our daily lives.
Interest rates have soared more than tenfold within 18 months, yet the stock market continues its relentless ascent, while inflation refuses to abate. The younger generations find themselves in a particularly precarious situation today. Despite both adults in a home often holding highly qualified jobs, the dream of a comfortable life with a house and children seems increasingly elusive to an ever larger number. This reveals a widening wealth gap in today’s economy despite the advent of technology that has exponentially increased productivity.
Behind these contradictory observations lies a new monetary context. Between 2021 and 2024, the US deficit ballooned from $27 trillion to $34.4 trillion, marking an almost 25% increase in less than four years. This unprecedented surge in the deficit clearly reveals an acceleration of a tendency that had slowly started in the seventies and that has significantly accelerated after 2009.
At the heart of all of this lies a fundamental tool and technology we all use and interact with every day: money. Our money, the currency we use every day, was also transformed in 1971, a date that marks the beginning of an increasing deficit trend. Interestingly, amidst the turmoil of the 2008 financial crisis, which was the largest of its kind, a mysterious and anonymous individual introduced a new type of money to the world, Bitcoin. A money that was designed and introduced as a way to address the weaknesses and limitations of the new type of money we started using in 1971, FIAT, and the unusual economic paradigm we find ourselves in today. As we navigate these uncertain times, it will be fascinating to see the role Bitcoin, the original and dominant cryptocurrency, will play in shaping our economic future, but in order to understand our current economic context, it is necessary to understand the relationship between money, inflation, the deficit, and Bitcoin.
This course is divided into two parts, examining the history and evolution of money from ancient times to the modern day. The first part will delve into what constitutes money, its failures throughout history, sound principles for a stable currency system, and how paper-based fiat currencies emerged as a replacement for gold-backed standards.
In the second half, we'll turn our attention to exploring a solution, Bitcoin, to the current problems plaguing fiat systems, including inflation, debt, housing bubbles, stock market volatility, and more. This is the First Cryptocurrency, and that relied on - among other technologies - blockchain that was created and is also the largest Crypto by Market Cap. We will explore Bitcoin's design principles, governance model in its decentralized network, and how it can function as a medium of exchange, unit of account, and store of value. Additionally, we'll examine the unique relationship between Bitcoin and energy grids, assess its potential as an investment opportunity, discuss security concerns related to hacking and regulation, and address common criticisms (FUD) surrounding Bitcoin's adoption.

Very complete and well-structured course. Coming from an IT/Cybersecurity background I found myself researching further some technical details, but for anyone with a different background it contains pretty much all you need to know to understand bitcoint and be in a position to take informed decisions

Mohsen’s part was great, but after that, there was too much repeated content, and I found it difficult to follow.
By Vinodh Kumar Paramasivam on 2/20/2025
Definitely worth the time and money. I would say the amount of knowledge this course offers is huge compare the minimal course fee. Initially it feels like course discusses more and more about history of money but it is much needed to understand the whole concept. Mohsen and IIyass are great instructors delivering the course flawlessly. I would give more than 5 stars rating for the course if there is an option. Go for it without a second thought.

I want to give 10 stars rating ✨ As always, course from Mohsen always delivers. I am never worried about wasting my money when buying a course from Mohsen. Ilyas also nailed it. It was my first time learning from Ilyas and he proved why he has a PhD degree. I learned what i wanted to learn about, i.e. Bitcoin. But more than that, I learned so much about money itself. Every normal needs to take this course. Most of you have no idea what money really is. You will thank yourself after you take this course learn about what money itself is.

No sabía que necesitaba en mi vida todo lo que me ha enseñado este curso. Muy agradecido por la historia del dinero tan relevante y con tantos datos que no se saben comunmente. Ademas de como manejar el dinero bitcoin y sus reglas es algo trascendental de saber antes de invertir en él como querer hacer otras cosas con el dinero.

Fantastic course, extremely valuable information in this day and age. Perhaps I am overhyping, but I think this might be the most valuable lesson I've learned in my adult life... only time will tell. You can tell that the instructors have a passion for this subject and the material is organized very well. 5 million stars.
By Cederick Ambrose on 10/20/2024
I couldn’t take my eyes off of it. This course is absolutely amazing. You couldn’t possibly ask for more of an explanation of the topic. I have tremendous respect for these two guys for all that they put into this educational masterpiece. Thank you for all of the extra thought that was put into each detail.
By Carlos Giraldo on 10/9/2024
I haven’t finished the entire course yet, but after going through the section on the history of money, I can confidently say this material deserves at least 10 stars. What an amazing course! I’ve learned more about money and its history here than I ever did in college. The explanations are crystal clear, the content is well-organized, and the instructors truly know their stuff. They deliver it in a way that's both captivating and informative. Courses like this should be mandatory in schools from a young age—imagine how much less room there'd be for populist ideas in society. Kudos and many thanks for this outstanding course!

An excellent course that perfectly fulfills its informative mission on what money is. It concentrates a lot of knowledge. I have my reservations about Bitcoin given that at the end it will be a struggle between the government and the new economy. Everything will depend on the commitment of businesses to accept Bitcoin as a form of exchange. Without a doubt, Bitcoin has the best qualities to become a standard but it also has great uncertainties because there may be power struggles that weaken it by creating e.g. multiple forks. What will the future be like? Nobody knows but the important thing is to have options to face the future and Bitcoin is an excellent option.
By Fairfield Bain on 5/19/2024
This is an excellent discussion of the concept of money - leading to a much better understanding of how cryptocurrency now plays a role in exchange and storage of value. Very knowledgable and credible as well as a very clear explanation of principles discussed. I will look forward to learning more from this instructor.
