### Bitcoin Education with Real Tools

Blockstream Local helps Bitcoin meetups stay engaging and educational. Register your meetup to get free, ready-to-use slide decks on Bitcoin 101 topics: buying, self-custody, and hardware wallets. No need to start from scratch we provide a full curriculum to guide your session.

### Teach Bitcoin Simply and Securely

The [Blockstream app](https://helpcenter.dxp-frontend.devserver.app/blockstream-app) makes it easy for new users to try Bitcoin self-custody with no seed phrase required at setup. The Blockstream Jade is the best way to get hands-on with cold storage and deepen your understanding of Bitcoin security. Meetups can request up to 3 free Jades per year. Resources include the Bitcoin 101 slide deck and Jade 101 setup guide.

### Hands-On with Bitcoin Hardware Wallets

As a Blockstream Local organizer, you’ll get free [Blockstream Jade](https://helpcenter.dxp-frontend.devserver.app/blockstream-jade) hardware wallets to demo and give away at your events, helping attendees take the next step in their Bitcoin journey.
