FREE Madeira is offering two complementary online workshops in Portuguese to educate participants about the evolution of money and the potential of Bitcoin.

FREE Madeira is set to enhance the financial literacy of locals and tourists by hosting two online workshops focusing on Bitcoin. These workshops aim to educate participants about the evolution of money, the challenges faced by traditional currencies, and how Bitcoin presents a modern solution.

Scheduled to be delivered in Portuguese, the workshops are designed to be complementary, providing a comprehensive understanding of Bitcoin's role in savings and everyday transactions. This initiative reflects a growing interest in digital currencies on Madeira Island, a trend that aligns with global financial shifts.

Interested participants can register for both workshops at a combined cost of €20 or opt for a single session at €15. Additionally, attendees will receive a 10% discount voucher for books available at shop.freemadeira.org, encouraging further learning and exploration of the subject matter.

Bitcoin, often hailed as a revolutionary financial tool, is gaining traction worldwide, and Madeira is no exception. These workshops are particularly timely, given the increasing curiosity and investment in cryptocurrencies both locally and internationally.

FREE Madeira, known for its commitment to education and innovation, continues to support the community by providing accessible resources and knowledge, reinforcing Madeira's position as a forward-thinking region embracing technological advancements.
