Aiming for this goal, the Cubo+ initiative is launching the first curriculum at the University of Don Bosco. The initial group comes with 54 selected students who will concentrate on topics including economics, monetary history, theory, and future use cases and will be highlighted with a concluded statement by Saifedean Ammous, the famed author of the Bitcoin Standard, a best-seller in tech books that’s been already translated to 36 foreign languages.
The first Cubo+ Devs Generation learning initiative will last until the end of June. Further on, the top students will be able to test their skills in a practice coding boot camp in July, mentored by the best Bitcoin Lightning engineers.
