## Content

There are a lot of links to very valuable content below. But do you know what's more important for learning than reading? Doing!Even if you read, watch and listen to everything listed here, you'll only have a very superficial and theoretical understanding of the space. The only way to truly understand the power and shortcomings of crypto is to use it. That’s what it’s for, after all.
