Below is our proposed content plan for the learning group over the next three months. We warmly welcome any suggestions, questions, or requests for changes—feel free to share them by replying to this post.
Our focus is on peer-to-peer learning and building a solid foundational understanding of risk, while also engaging with DeFi through hands-on experimentation.
In June, we’ll support participants in setting up Ethereum wallets and provide a small individual budget to encourage direct interaction with DeFi protocols. We’ll share more details on the logistics soon.
As we design this part of the journey, we’d love to hear about any personal interests, preferences, or ideas you’d like us to consider. Thanks in advance for helping shape the experience!
