Educator and communicator Bruno Vaccotti presents Educating for Freedom, his third book — a work that explains, in clear language and with local examples, how Bitcoin can function as a tool for both economic and educational emancipation. The title is available for free online and also offers a printed edition, with 100% of proceeds going to educational programs at Penguin Academy.
Educating for Freedom comprehensively articulates how Bitcoin can serve as an instrument of economic and educational empowerment. After a clear analysis of fiat money, it defends “sound money” for its impact on time preference and social progress.
It connects the practice of learning by doing, community work, and sovereignty with Bitcoin’s technical architecture, using the case of Paraguay to illustrate how hydroelectric surpluses can be transformed into development through mining and circular economies. Without falling into technical jargon, the book offers an accessible and educational read for those not yet immersed in the Bitcoin world.
Additionally, it combines history, technology, and practical guides, addressing objections regarding energy use and volatility with data and examples of flexible demand response and growing renewable participation. Several chapters act as bridges between theory and action, grounded in local context. It is recommended for educators, community leaders, and energy decision-makers seeking a pragmatic roadmap to turn financial knowledge into everyday sovereignty.
The Author’s Third Open-Access Work
Educating for Freedom is Vaccotti’s third book. Like his previous two works, it follows an open-access and free-distribution model, reinforcing his mission to democratize financial and technological education. The new element is a solidarity-driven print version: all revenue funds scholarships and workshops at Penguin Academy.
The book presents Bitcoin not only as a financial asset but as a pedagogical tool for both individual and collective sovereignty. Through this educational and social perspective, it encourages a critical understanding of money, technology, and freedom — promoting a more informed and autonomous citizenry.
Paraguay is also proposed as a case study to explore the energy and innovation potential linked to Bitcoin. From its hydroelectric abundance to opportunities for technological development, the country is presented as a regional laboratory where sustainability, digital economy, and social progress intertwine.
The text is designed to be agile, educational, and accessible, even for readers without technical training. Its clear explanations and practical examples allow anyone to grasp the key concepts and their relevance to everyday life.
Purchasing the printed edition has a direct and tangible purpose: funding educational programs. In this way, each reader becomes an active participant in an initiative that unites knowledge, action, and social transformation.
