Bitcoin, Explained from Scratch: What It Is and How to Take Your First Steps
Description
Bitcoin comes up in every conversation about money, and most explanations start three steps too late. This session starts at the beginning: what Bitcoin actually is, why it exists, and what sets it apart from the rest of the digital asset market. No jargon, no hype, no predictions.
In the second half we get practical. We look at how buying and holding Bitcoin works in Switzerland, from a regulated Swiss app to an exchange, and at the one distinction that matters most: whether your Bitcoin sits with a provider or in your own hands. Bring your phone if you would like to follow along. Nobody has to buy anything, the point is that the first step stops feeling like a hurdle.
Education, not investment advice.
