This event is only available for VIScon Symposium or Hackathon participants, as well as Helpers! Please sign up for one of these events first!

Discover Bitcoin like never before! We play an interactive offline group game to explore the Bitcoin ecosystem from various angles: economics, technology, sustainability, and society.

Anyone can join, no prior knowledge of Bitcoin needed. You will enjoy a sneak-peak into the latest version of the game.

Students of the D-GESS course "Shaping a DCent.Society" have been testing our highly engaging game to connect the dots across the Bitcoin ecosystem from various disciplines. Starting from our money system and its challenges, the game brings philosophy, cryptoeconomics, mining, sustainability, and financial inclusion into a larger context. After playing it, you will understand Bitcoin on a deeper level than 99.9% of your friends.

Additional slots might become available later on. Please use the waiting list!
