Blockchain technology is revolutionizing many sectors. We have seen the Financial sector explode with DEFIs (decentralized finance), the Art sector with NFTs and metaverses, or the Gaming sector with the new play to earn paradigm.
The aim of this course is to provide students with the basic knowledge that will serve as a learning base to be able to develop a career in the field of decentralized finance and blockchain technology.
