#6: Discovering a decentralized university - with Amin Rafiee

Guess who I'm talking to today, it's Amin Rafiee, the Founder of the World’s first Decentralized Autonomous University, Bittopia University. He is a huge fan of decentralization, P2P economies, privacy, and bottom-up strategies. But also is Amin international speaker and educator, bio-hacker, journalist, designer, is there something this guy is not capable of doing?

We deep dive into the topic of decentralized education, we talk about the many benefits decentralized education has, how the decentralized university works, and we elaborate, why students should be the real stakeholder of their university. Of course we fall into the Bitcoin rabbit hole here and there, and we show you, how many similarities between knowledge and currency are. 

“Kowledge is currency, for me is derived from the idea that through knowledge you can absolutely transform your life. You can do anything, as long as you know how to. The entire concept of Internet is on the premise of knowledge. It's what transformed so many peoples lives and also impacted in negative ways, too. Though, knowledge has been a sense of transformation since the dawn of human existence.”
