The Bitcoin Education Fund

One donation, two destinations: half runs the engine, half lands with the communities doing the teaching. Once our yearly budget is covered, everything flows to the network.

Draft:internal preview: every figure on this page is a placeholder. The mechanism is pending the legal compliance check and the published split rulebook.

How it works

50% · the engine

Funds the 2027 operational budget: the open-source curriculum, the Educator Training Program, the app, translations, and network infrastructure.

50% · the network

Lands in a dedicated fund address and is distributed to communities every quarter, based on the public leaderboard's proof of work.

The flip

Budget covered means the split ends: from that moment, 100% of every donation goes to the network. We cap ourselves; the network has no cap.

Half of every donation moves this bar. The other half is already in the network's side of the fund.

Distribution

  1. Communities record verifiable work: cohorts, graduates, educators, merchants.
  2. The leaderboard scores it under the published rulebook.
  3. Every quarter the fund pays out by score; every payout is published here, transaction id included.

Distributions subject to legal eligibility per jurisdiction; ineligible shares roll over. Rule changes announced mid-quarter take effect next quarter.

Prefer to support one community directly? Every community page has its own Lightning button, and those sats go straight to them: we never touch the money. The fund is for funding the whole movement at once.
