Everything from Andreas Antonopolous, look for his youtube channel, tons of best informations u can get, for begginers and very deep knowledge also.
What else? Little more entertainent with some knowledge is bitcoin documentaries. Any of them, each of them.

Youtube has exploded over the past 6-8 months with people explaining cryptocurrencies and trading them. Be care though as anyone with a camera can do this and many of the influencers/youtubers don't have the proper experience and can easily misguide their viewers. Many are trying to sell a course or product also, so just be aware that many have a bias.

Saying that, there are still many good, experience and objective youtubers out there and it can be a great place to start. The bitcoin documentary is a good watch for someone just learning, as is a podcast on the Tim Ferriss show with Nick Szabo.

Intermediate: -Coursera (free) - deep discussions on cryptography by Princeton University

Advanced: -Udemy - if you want to have a look at Solidity development.

All the best! Have fun learning!

I don't think that you need to take any specific course. You can learn everything about Cryptocurrency and Blockchain in Youtube and other social media sites. Just google it.

Something that I always do.. If I see an advert I like i'll google the name and check for reviews.. if the reviews are even split between good and bad i'll pass.. only if they are over 90% (depending on review size) I'll use them as I don't want to run the risk of clicking on a link and it being something majorly dodgy.. One rule that I go by is be more cautious to protect everything.

Look for the big companies first who post stuff online they will be less likely to be scammers.

I've researched the best online courses for learning about Cryptocurrency. What I've found in summary:

  • Khan Academy (Course: Bitcoin: What is it? https://www.khanacademy.org/economics-finance-domain/core-finance/money-and-banking/bitcoin/v/bitcoin-what-is-it (https://www.khanacademy.org/economics-finance-domain/core-finance/money-and-banking/bitcoin/v/bitcoin-what-is-it)) - Academic course including hash functions, signatures, proof of work and security.
  • Coursera (Course: Bitcoin and Cryptocurrency Technologies https://www.coursera.org/learn/cryptocurrency (https://www.coursera.org/learn/cryptocurrency)) - Technical course including how decentralization works, the components such as blockchain blocks, mining & anonymity. As the assignments are quite technical, I'd say this course is suited to people with a programming background, ideally Java.
  • Udemy (Course: Various, see below) - A lot of practical, less technical courses. Subjects include: Getting started (buying, selling, wallets), Investing & Trading, Bitcoin Mining, Bitcoin Certification and a number of other courses focused on niche opportunities. Bear in mind that Udemy is an open platform, which brings with it pluses and minuses: On the negative side, it leaves the door open for poor/dubious content: Always check the reviews! Having said that, there are some good bitcoin courses on Udemy. Also on the plus side, there's a huge variety of subjects and angles that just aren't available elsewhere as convenient, organized courses.

I've documented my recommendations for each type of bitcoin and cryptocurrency course here, in case people are interested:

Quite a few of the courses are free. I hope you find this helpful!

You have lots of video tutorials to learn from in the areas of crypto currencies,
blockchain technology, decentralized administration,distributed ledger technology and crypto
currency trading.You also need to analyse the cryptocurrency  market signals for traders
to ascertain if the market trend is going up or down.All these and more information is found in
youtube videos.Thanks.

This is the course I'm taking at the moment on edx.com and I strongly recommend to any newcomer.
Blockchain for Business - An Introduction to Hyperledger Technologies (https://www.edx.org/course/blockchain-business-introduction-linuxfoundationx-lfs171x)
It is free but if you want you can get certificate for 99$.
One of the best I found so far, this is not the first course I enroll on edx.
Quote
A primer to blockchain and distributed ledger technologies. Learn how to start building blockchain applications with Hyperledger frameworks.

One that I would tell you to stay away of is Tai Lopez, if you ever run across him.  He does a lot of you tube ads for his cryto courses, but the dude honestly knows next to nothing.  He just hires people to teach him and sells the videos as a course.  He's a great online marketer, but if you're showing a garage of expensive cars in your videos, I don't trust you.

You must know which section you want to study first then follow by next section you want to study lastly just like a jigsaw puzzle match them up altogether, my suggestion is start on the fundementals part like blockchain technology then to the practical part like wallets

From the word itself, bounty is a service where the salary you will get from it will be received after the whole campaign. Don't be excited about the salary, you just need to be chill and wait patiently for it because that is how bounty works. Also consider the time that you will wait for the tokens(altcoin) to be distributed.

Sometimes, Bounty has ended when the participants get fulfill. And some Campaign don't accept participant who sign the bounty campaign in last sales token period. So, you need to join bounty in first time if you need to be accepted. Good luck.
