Really excited to work with @edil_medeiros, @lucasdcf and @Vinteum_org, and @Btchubafrica (so far!) to kick this off. Huge thanks to @Ethan_Heilman and many other wonderful guest lecturers in the course.

We’re looking for students, faculty, researchers, nonprofits, and funders to join us. Learn more & get involved here:

We’re starting with a joint MIT–University of Brasilia course: Cryptocurrency Design & Engineering. It will be open-source, free to reuse, and available for any CS lecturer to audit and hopefully teach. The goal: build global technical capacity & long-term research collaborations.

DCI Global is our attempt to answer these questions. We're seeking like-minded collaborators, especially from the global south.

But how widespread is the impact? Are there also risks or harms that come along with this change? And how can we design these systems to truly help people financially flourish?.

We hear real stories about how digital currencies like Bitcoin and stablecoins are helping activists get paid, enabling cheaper remittances, and offering alternatives to inflationary currencies.

We’re launching DCI Global, a nascent research network to study real-world Bitcoin & stablecoin use, starting with a joint MIT–UnB open-source course to build global capacity.
