Hespérides University, renowned for its commitment to classical liberal values, has launched a groundbreaking Master’s program in Bitcoin. Set to begin on April 28, 2025, this fully online program is the first of its kind in Spain. It aims to prepare professionals to understand and lead in the Bitcoin era.
The program offers a comprehensive education in the economic, legal, technological, and philosophical aspects of Bitcoin. Bitcoin, often seen as a speculative asset, is now viewed as a revolutionary monetary network.
Master’s program to expand understanding of Crypto
The Master’s program seeks to expand this understanding. Álvaro D. María, the program director and a key figure in Bitcoin philosophy, emphasized the need for proper education to prevent continued misinterpretation and underuse of Bitcoin’s potential.
He believes the program will provide the knowledge professionals need to interact with Bitcoin responsibly and effectively. The program’s curriculum covers a wide range of topics, including Bitcoin’s history, technology, economics, and regulation.
It aims to answer critical questions such as what makes Bitcoin different from other digital assets. The underlying principles of its protocol, and the impact of regulatory frameworks on its growth. By focusing on both theoretical knowledge and practical application, the program ensures that graduates are ready to contribute to Bitcoin-native firms in areas such as engineering, economics, law, and investment.
