A bitcoin development training program will launch in New York City this September to teach new developers the basics of the protocol.
While bitcoin might not be the easiest software to master today, bitcoin R&D group Chaincode Labs believes it can help mitigate this issue by giving developers an option to learn in an environment that is more supportive and interactive than current online materials can offer.
Set the firm's headquarters in New York, the four-week "hacker residency" program aims to give developers an opportunity to work on projects that pique their interest starting 12th September.
Notably, bitcoin developer and Blockstream co-founder Matt Corallo will take a leave of absence from his startup as part of a bid to support the effort.
