Cryptocurrency 2: Cryptocurrency, NFTs, Blockchain and Web3 - A more in depth look
In this course, we'll look in more detail at how Cryptocurrency and associated technology works, including the Metaverse, NFTs and Web3
Course Summary
This course is designed for financial professionals, such as IFAs, Estate Planners and anyone dealing with clients who may own or be looking to own Cryptocurrency or NFTs. It is also suitable for those with little or no experience of Blockchain and Cryptocurrency as an introduction to help get started.
It's a self paced course, meaning you can dip in and out as you please - the Narrated powerpoints are all set so they are split into approximately 10 minute sessions (although they may contain embedded videos as well) and there are knowledge checks throughout each module to check your understanding.
At the end of the course, you will understand what the Blockchain is, How Cryptocurrency works, NFTs and the Metaverse as well as being able to spot scams. This is explained (where possible) in plain English and aims to help you engage with friends, family or clients whether they are involved in cryptocurrency or not!
