Thank you for sharing useful information. I predict you come from Viet Nam. Me too. I join in this market almost 1 year but the basic concepts of blockchain often make difficult for me. Can you recommend some document or some group can provide basic knowledge about blockchain in Vietnamese ?

[tranthidung]

You are welcome!

Thank you for sharing useful information. I predict you come from Viet Nam. Me too.

I don't know but there are many events, conference on blockchain which was held recent months, presented by Vietnamese guys and international guys.
You can join those ones, which are helpful for your interest.

(2) Blockchainsfactory - Great online training courses such as  Blockchain For Developers

[tranthidung]

Thank you.
I added this one into the OP.

Next time, to save more space, you should snip un-necessary contents of threads you quoted. It should better quoted like mine below, if you don't want to point out any specific points in my original thread.

Snip

Bumping the topic a bit after long silent period!

Today, I would like to give you link to the helpful topic, especially newcomers in the crypto world.
The topic, namely Terminology, itself presents its main objectives are to give full meanings of abbreviations, words, names and phrases on bitcointalk.
I have also added the topic into the OP.

Let's get started, everyone!

Updated courses on Blockchain from Dash Scholar Programs, for today [the OP updated, too].
Enjoy it, everyone.

1. https://www.dash.org/2018/01/18/asu.html
2. https://scholarships.asu.edu/scholarship/100296
3. https://www.dashforcenews.com/new-asu-blockchain-lab-research-shows-dash-can-easily-scale-near-paypal-levels/
4. https://www.dashforcenews.com/dash-labs-making-significant-progress-on-enhancing-robustness-of-dash-network/

The new $350,000 Dash-ASU agreement announced today includes:

The Dash Scholars Program, which provides $100,000 in scholarships for undergraduate and graduate research fellowships;
Research lab and Industry open source projects, providing an additional $100,000 in funding for ASU’s Blockchain Research Lab (BRL) and $50,000 in new funding for the Luminosity Lab, and
Blockchain course development, with $100,000 for creating an online graduate course expected to be offered at ASU this fall.
The partnership comes after Dash contributed $50,000 USD in Blockchain Research Laboratory startup funding in August 2017. In November, Dash and ASU announced the creation of the BRL at ASU, the first in academia.

By the way, I would like to suggest someone who have intention to leave a comment here, you all should try avoiding pyramid quotes.
Only quote specific points on which you want to imply/ discuss with; and delete all un-necessary stuffs inside original posts.
Doing this will help others easier to follow flows of ideas and avoid potential fingers' hurt due to over-srolling computer mouse.

For instance, the following post is a over-quoted one.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4686783.msg45119651#msg45119651
The post's author should do this

Code:

The topic, namely Satoshi's lesson (released by Theymos) as his way to celebrate the tenth birthday of Bitcoin.

One more time, this topic is not a course, but it contents essential information, sources to learn more on bitcoin.
This one is the utmost important thing that any crypto enthusiast has to read carefully.

[TheMoneyMongers]

I am not a big fan of courses by colleges and universities because many universities are just doing for the sake of taking hefty money from the students. However, if some want to still try blockchain courses and bitcoin courses & certifications from universities, then here are those universities offering it:

Haas School of Business, UC Berkeley
NYU's Stern School of Business
Fuqua School of Business, Duke University
MIT Sloan School of Management
UCLA Anderson School of Management
Georgetown University's McDonough School of Business
The Wharton School (University of Pennsylvania)
