Wharton confirmed the quality of its cryptocurrency and blockchain program by appointing Kevin Werbach, who has 3 years of teaching experience in the decentralized field, as the lead instructor of the course.

“It’s a show about blockchain and digital assets, we feel like we’re talking and walking.” Guido Molinari, managing partner of Prysm Group, is working with Wharton to develop the program, Bloomberg said. “Coinbase has 68 million verified users, each of these users will benefit from this program”, he added.

Wharton’s exclusive announcement to accept crypto classes for this crypto and blockchain course at this Ivy League school comes as no surprise given the extensive list of crypto-rich schools. As Bloomberg revealed, Tesla CEO Elon Musk graduated from Wharton School in 1997. In addition, Arthur Hayes, the founder of the BitMex exchange, also passed away at the same school.

With cryptocurrency momentum in the fourth quarter, OG Bitcoin outperforms all currencies and the support from the Bitcoin community couldn’t be greater. While Tesla CEO Musk has always had Bitcoin in his crypto portfolio, the ongoing uptrend has reinforced its support for crypto with an exclusive announcement that Tesla will continue to pay in Bitcoin. Earlier this week, Tesla announced in its quarterly reports that the company could resume crypto payments for its products and services. The Bitcoin ETF, coupled with increasing institutional acceptance and now an exclusive announcement from Tesla, could make 2021 a year of growth for BTC.
