Rust for Bitcoiners
What It Is
A focused 6-week course that introduces you to Rust, and its application in high-performance Bitcoin development.
While Builders does not intend to operate as a code camp, we have found that capability in industry-relevant programming languages is required to meaningfully contribute to Bitcoin projects. For this pathway, Builders will simply act as a coordinator, grouping developers by target language and walking them through existing code camps.
Who It’s For
Intermediate to advanced developers eager to contribute to Bitcoin open-source projects or build secure, efficient Bitcoin applications using Rust.
What To Expect
Self-paced modules each week
In-depth tutorials on Rust fundamentals (ownership, borrowing, and memory safety)
Hands-on coding, quizzes, diagrams & extra practice
Practical exercises/projects that integrate Rust with Bitcoin-specific tasks
Weekly sync calls with peers & mentors
Real-world Rust experience tied to Bitcoin development

Discord
Once you are invited to the private #rust-for-bitcoiners channel on our Discord workspace, take time to introduce yourself. Say a little bit about yourself, whether it be what area you’re from, what you do for work, or something you do for fun. These groups work best when we get to know each other.
If you don’t want to use your personal photo as your icon, that is totally fine. Just please change it to a unique image.
Coursework & Study Sessions
We will be using BTCdemy to go through the material.
