Melbourne Bitcoiners: Education, Meetups, Projects, and Spaces with Kieran Nolan & Chris Pollard
I talk with Kieran Nolan and Chris Pollard, two Bitcoiners based in Melbourne, Australia.
Kieran Nolan is a Bitcoin educator. He is the technology specialist at a primary school in Australia, teaching Bitcoin and STEM topics, including getting Andreas Antonopoulos to do a video lesson with his students
Kieran is also part of the theschoolofbitcoin.com, blockchain academy international, and other projects.
Chris Pollard joins us a little bit later on the episode and is active in helping organise the Bitcoin meetups in Melbourne, running bitcoinonly.store, as well leading a new project to create a permanent bitcoin space: unspent.space.
With both my guests I was blown away by the range of impactful projects they are working on.
“Every school in Australia and New Zealand should be running a node.”
