You Know Bitcoin is the Money of the Future… So Why Does Using It Feel So Intimidating?
You’ve read the headlines, maybe read some articles or watched some videos. You’ve heard how Bitcoin is changing finance. Maybe you’ve even bought some on an exchange or ETF.
But when it comes to actually using Bitcoin—holding it yourself, sending and receiving it without asking permission—something stops you.
What if it’s too complicated? What if you mess up?
Trust me, you’re not alone.
Here’s the problem…There’s no shortage of explanations about why Bitcoin matters. Podcasts, videos, and books will tell you:
How inflation is actually stealing your savingsWhy Bitcoin can be a liferaft, saving you from broken currencyHow the Bitcoin blockchain allows permissionless transactions
But how do you learn the practical details? The essential skills like:
✓ Creating a wallet that can be easily restored
✓ Sending and receiving Bitcoin inexpensively and safely
✓ Holding Bitcoin long-term in self custody
✓ Avoiding scammers and other dangers
You could spend hundreds of hours reading articles and books, and watching videos. You could patch together information from all kinds of different sources.
Or you could let this book guide you, with 28 “learn-by-doing” exercises that replace anxiety with confidence. Exercises that give you the practice you need, to understand how to actually use Bitcoin.
The way to truly learn Bitcoin is to roll up your sleeves and use it.
Think back to learning to drive. Did your instructor start with the physics of internal combustion engines? No, they didn’t. They probably said:
“Here’s the gas pedal, here’s the brake””Let’s practice in this empty parking lot””Now try turning. See, you’re doing it!”
These exercises give you a low-risk environment, using very small amounts of Bitcoin, so you can learn safely.
After installing Sparrow Wallet (a well-known free and open-source Bitcoin wallet software), you’ll do exercises that walk you through:
Setting up your first real wallets for practiceMaking sure that the wallets can be recoveredSending and receiving Bitcoin securely and confidently
All this, while learning how to avoid common problems. The potential pitfalls are laid out, so you can steer clear.
Every exercise ends with a “Learn More” section—it’s there if you’re curious, skip it if you just want the essentials.
Who Is This For? It’s For You If You:
✓ Suspect self-custody is important, but aren’t sure how to start
✓ Have tried learning but got lost in technical jargon
✓ Spent hours reading and watching videos, but still feel like you’re missing some of the practical basics
✓ Own Bitcoin, but keep it on an exchange or ETF because self custody seems risky
What You’ll Need:
A computer (Windows, Mac, or Linux) and a mobile phoneSome time to work through the exercises. (depending on your skill level, it can take about half a day).The willingness to learn some new software (Sparrow Wallet is beginner-friendly)The ability to buy a little bit of Bitcoin (you don’t need much)
The Real Risk Isn’t Making Mistakes—It’s Waiting
Every day without self-custody is another day that:
Bitcoin you have on an exchange could be lost, because exchanges are notorious for being hackedInflation eats away at the money you could have converted to BitcoinA bank crisis could lock you out of your bank accountThe price of Bitcoin increases—it usually goes up over time
