Access and cost
MIT OpenCourseWare makes the course materials publicly available. This is an archive for self-study, not enrollment, personal instruction, or a promise of academic credit. We link to the originals rather than republishing course materials.

Potential learning fit: A structured option for readers who want to examine blockchain through finance and institutional use cases, with assignments to guide further research.
Limitations: The 2018 course predates major market and protocol changes. Treat its legal, market, and policy discussion as historical context and verify present-day claims separately. We have not graded its assignments or measured learner outcomes.
These are our interpretations of the linked materials, not scores or guarantees. We assess documented format, topic coverage, and freshness limits—not popularity or returns.
