As the course progresses, we will move into more advanced topics such as Smart Contracts, Digital Tokens, Tokenization, and Decentralized Applications. If you are not familiar with some of these terms, don't worry. I have created this course to provide you with a highly efficient way to learn and understand many of the most frequently encountered topics and terms in Blockchain and Cryptocurrency, including the vocabulary you will need to familiarize yourself and be able to have educated professional conversations.
