“Our goal is to make crypto accessible and inclusive to everyone, especially native Puerto Ricans,” said Keiko Yoshino, Executive Director for the Puerto Rico Blockchain Trade Association, “Blockchain and crypto are largely inaccessible because it is a rapidly emerging field of technology, computer science, economics, and engineering and there is no textbook.”

To address this issue, the Association has developed CryptoCurious workshop designed for new to or “curious” about cryptocurrency. Registration can be found on eventbrite. For those unable to come in person, the workshop will be recorded and made available through their website.

Haft also founded the largest decentralized network of blockchain meetups globally known as CryptoMondays.

As part of their mission to offer education in both Blockchain and crypto to Puerto Ricans, PRBTA partnered with BEN this past month of July. Since their establishment, BEN has offered course material designed to spur blockchain adoption by empowering members to bring blockchain to their communities, now being the largest and oldest network of blockchain students, alumni, and professors across the world.

“The technology is moving quickly and while there are a number of courses online, they are expensive,” Erick Pinos, President of BEN, “We are partnering with the Blockchain Trade Association because we believe free classes is the right approach to knowledge sharing.”
