Bitcoin for Kids: The Little HODler & Mi Primer Bitcoin Collaboration | Lina Seiche & John Dennehy

Live from Bitcoin Beach in El Zonte, El Salvador, we’re back with two amazing guests! Today, we’ve got Lina Seiche, mom of The Little HODLer, and John Dennehy, founder Mi Primer Bitcoin, and they’ve got some exciting news to share. 

They’re teaming up to create a Bitcoin schoolbook for younger kids, filling in the gap left after the success of The Bitcoin Diploma for older students. We talk about how this project came to be, why it's so important to start teaching Bitcoin to kids early, and how they're working with the Ministry of Education to make it happen.

Lina also shares her personal experience of moving to El Salvador and launching her Little HODLer brand, and how she got involved in marketing President Bukele’s new coffee brand. John updates us on Mi Primer Bitcoin’s global impact with their node network of Bitcoin educators in over 27 countries, plus their work in El Salvador to spread Bitcoin education to thousands of students.

This episode is packed with insights into how Bitcoin education is growing from the ground up, why El Salvador is leading the charge, and how you can get involved. Don’t miss it!
