This National Blockchain Course is intended for anyone interested in this subject. In this online course we explain what blockchain is, how it works technically and what you can do with it. Blockchain is almost always linked to cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin. However, the possibilities and opportunities of this technology go far beyond that. Think of making chains transparent, so that coffee and chocolate are really traded fairly. This course consists of a total of six modules, each with a different theme such as 'What is Blockchain?', 'What can we do with it?' and 'Cryptocurrencies & Tokens'. Each module consists of a piece of theory as an introduction. We will talk to people who have a lot to do with blockchain in their daily practice and we will conclude with a round table discussion with experts, who will shine their light on the current state of affairs and the future around the theme in question.
