Meetup opener
One quick scenario, one group vote, one debrief. Best for introducing the idea before a talk.
Host mode
Run Bitcoin lessons with a group.
Host mode is the facilitator side of EDK: choose a block, follow a run-of-show, project prompts, run activities, and debrief without digging through learner content.
Session formats
Pick the room you are actually in.
Workshop block
Run the activity, split groups, compare answers, and connect the concept to Bitcoin.
Full class
Run the full sequence with roles, reflection, discussion, and extension activity.

Beginner funnel run-of-show
Block 1
Open with money functions
Use candy/dollar/monopoly bill prompt. Outcome: learners can explain why money works.
Block 2Run the market plaza
Assign roles, create failed trades, introduce a saleable good, then compare money types.
Block 3Run the inflation auction
Auction one good before and after new money enters. Debrief purchasing power.
Block 4Match problems to Bitcoin
Give groups problem cards and solution cards. They defend the match out loud.
Bring only what the activity needs.
- Role cards or sticky notes
- Tokens / candy / small objects for trading
- Timer
- Whiteboard or projected prompt
- Optional printed scorecards
Let the room discover the concept.
Do not lecture first. Run the friction, ask what happened, then name the concept. That is the EDK teaching style.
