Transparency

Our Commitment to Openness and Accountability

At Mi Primer Bitcoin, we believe that transparency is the foundation of trust and a key pillar of our organization. We are committed to maintaining the highest standards of openness and accountability in all aspects of our operations, from our educational initiatives to our organizational structure and goals.

Empowering Bitcoin Education Together

We had our first class on September 24, 2021, in a borrowed yoga studio. One student came. We’ve come a long way since then. We’ve taught tens of thousands in-person students in El Salvador. Our Bitcoin Diploma was the first in the world to ever be used in a public school system for credit and has been adapted by the El Salvador Ministry of Education with the goal of bringing Bitcoin education to every school in the country.

Everything we create is open source. Everything we do reflects the future world we hope to help create. Our end goal is to empower students and organizers to think for themselves and come to their own conclusions. This is much harder than dictating to students and organizers, but it is crucial.

We are a 501(c)3 and have tax-exempt status in the US.

Support us!

El Salvador is where it began, but our mission is the world.

Grassroots

This is a global movement and we are building a global infrastructure.

In March 2023 we launched the MPB Node Network of front-line, grassroots independent Bitcoin educators. To join, you have to agree to the core consensus rules and demonstrate proof-of-work. That network is now decentralized, self governing and has roots in 30+ countries around the world.

This global network is designed to share best practices, entrench the revolution and speed up the timeline. It includes creating infrastructure to aid in translations, new curriculum creation and distribution, fundraising, accounting and more.

Being fiercely independent and rejecting all funding with strings attached is necessary to the mission. It means depending on the bitcoin community for financial support and asking for donations.

YOU are the lifeblood that pushes this movement forward.

Check our Geyser campaign for more details about the Grassroots Funding, or donate on-chain (for bigger amounts) via BTC Pay Server via the widget on this page.

Grants

Grants are the newest category and we anticipate this number to grow as ‘Corporate’ decreases.

Governments

We don't take money from any government.

Mi Primer Bitcoin empowers individuals globally through comprehensive Bitcoin education. Since 2021, we've educated over 25,000 students in 30+ countries, fostering financial literacy and self-sovereignty.
