This course wonderfully describes the technology and its workings. Helped me understand the intricacies of this disruption and comprehend some of the challenges that I did not even consider before.

The structure, and the content were organized very well and easy to follow, however the content itself has to be updated as many references are outdated to 2014-2018 whereas the resources, technology and governace have changed dramatically since then. Most articles are old and irrelevant. Kind of like a history class more than an updated course on BC technology. The istuation of energy consumption is taken from 2015 , while the hashing rate has changed and many new chains were added.

no slides or visualisation of the note at all. the videos are all about a co-founder of a research institute is talking about the blockchain, which causes difficult to learn efficiently
