The University of the Hespérides, a prestigious academic institution recognized for its classical liberal teaching philosophy, has announced the launch of the first university Master’s program entirely in Spanish dedicated exclusively to Bitcoin. The initiative, presented exclusively by Bitcoin Magazine, represents a historic moment for financial and technological education in the Spanish-speaking world.
Starting from April 28, 2025, the master will be completely online, offering an interdisciplinary educational path that aims to provide students with the technical, economic, legal, and philosophical tools necessary to be protagonists of the era of Bitcoin.
University of the Hespérides presents the master’s in Bitcoin: training professionals for a revolutionary currency
“Without a solid education, we risk continuing to misunderstand and underutilize the potential of Bitcoin,” stated Álvaro D. María, program director and author of the book “The Philosophy of Bitcoin”. According to María, the goal of the master’s program is to bridge the knowledge gap, preparing professionals capable of responsibly and competently facing the challenges and opportunities offered by this new monetary technology.
The master does not limit itself to considering Bitcoin as a simple speculative asset, but presents it as a profound transformation of the global monetary system. An approach that aims to provide a comprehensive view of the phenomenon, from a historical, economic, technological, regulatory, and entrepreneurial perspective.
Program structure: between theory and practice
The structure of the Master has been designed to address both fundamental questions and practical issues:
- What makes Bitcoin unique among digital assets?
- What technological and economic principles are the basis of its protocol?
- How do regulatory frameworks influence its adoption?
- What skills are required by companies that operate natively in the Bitcoin world?
The educational offering is therefore oriented towards different professional profiles: imprenditori, ingegneri, economisti, giuristi e investitori. The program includes master classes, case study analysis, seminars and direct interactions with experts active in the sector.
A faculty of reference in the sector
The quality of the program is guaranteed by the presence of a team of exceptional instructors, figures known internationally in the Bitcoin world. Among these:
- Kristyna Mazankova, representative of The Bitcoin Conference
- Manuel Polavieja, expert in monetary theory
- Kilian Rausch, founder of Boltz Exchange
- Manu Ferrari, representative of Money on Chain
- Sergio Fernández, a well-known face of the channel NegociosTV
- The team of Decentralized, leading educational influencers in the sector
These professionals not only share theoretical knowledge, but offer a direct and concrete look at the operational dynamics of the contemporary Bitcoin market.
A project with solid alliances
To further strengthen the value of the master, there is a network of institutional partners and companies in the sector that actively collaborate with the university. Among these, names such as BTC Inc, Jan3, BTC Consulting 360, Watch Out, Bitcoin, NegociosTV, and the Institute of Philosophy and Economics of Bitcoin (IFEB) stand out.
These collaborations not only promote the alignment of the program with the real needs of the labor market, but also open new professional paths for students. Enrolled students will have privileged access to concrete opportunities, internships, and industry events promoted by the partners.
Freedom, innovation, and education: Bitcoin as a resource for empowerment
According to Juan Ramón Rallo, Dean of the university school of the Hespérides and a leading economist of the Austrian school, the master’s degree represents an essential piece in the defense of individual freedoms:
“Bitcoin is the most important monetary revolution of the last decades and will shape our future. We must be ready to use it to defend our freedoms against the State. For this reason, here at the University of Hespérides, we consider this program a fundamental mission.”
The master is therefore part of a broader vision, where Bitcoin is not just a financial instrument, but a agent of social and political change, capable of returning decision-making power to individuals.
Accessibility and flexibility for global students
Designed for an international audience, the program will be entirely in lingua spagnola and completely digitale, facilitating participation by students residing all over the world.
A strategic choice that offers flexibility to those who, already involved in professional careers, wish to delve into the world of Bitcoin with rigor and systematicity without having to give up their daily commitments. Registration is already open, with all the information available on the university’s official website.
A pioneering journey in the Bitcoin universe
With this master’s program, the University of the Hespérides positions itself at the forefront of the academic and cultural dissemination of the Bitcoin phenomenon, offering an unprecedented course in the Spanish-speaking world. A true educational experience designed for those who want to go beyond sensationalism and truly understand how Bitcoin will influence the economy, law, technology, and individual freedom in the coming years.
In a constantly evolving world, initiatives like this mark the step towards a new educational era, where the understanding of decentralized money is no longer an option, but a necessity.
