the content needs to be updated as it refers to 2017, and fairly rushed for a beginner to understand.

Videos were basically readings of slide contents. Poor explanations on some slides, for example "What is Ethereum? Bitcoin you can program". Such statement is barely understandable for a beginner, which is supposedly the intended audience of this course.

Instructor reading too much the slides. Missing real insight and complementary examples or information beyond what is written on the slides.

At the end of the course, I still had no clue. The voice was irritating, as well as the constant click from advancing the power point presentation. I can read it myself, thank you very much. One of the worst courses I've taken on Udemy. Sorry but it's a good thing it was free. If I'd paid for it, I'd be REALLY UPSET.

Thanks, Mr. Shingo. I wasn't a complete noob going in but I feel a lot more confident of my knowledge coming out!

This was something I was looking for and I got it for free (lucky). Good headstart to this whole new world for me.

I found the course quite superficial with no insightful informations. The definitions used were as of Wikipedia. The lecturer reads the slides. Despite all of this, it might be helpful for some cryptoworld new-joiners.

the course doesn't have useful information it makes you spend money not to how you can gain money from cryptocurrency, the explanation is so bad this guy who explain it doesn't have experience in cryptocurrency and he doesn't have experiences on how to teach and how to present.(do not spend money on this course)
