HackerSpace: Students Take on Bitcoin and Minecraft Challenge
Students from Boneo Primary’s 5A and 5B classes have been exploring digital finance, security, and teamwork through a Bitcoin project at the Boneo HackerSpace. With Jade hardware wallets donated by Blockstream and sats from the Digital Playhouse Foundation, each class set up a “3-of-5” multisig wallet to learn about secure digital transactions and shared decision-making. Using Minecraft, students created creative backups of their recovery phrases and keys, turning cybersecurity into an engaging treasure hunt. The project wrapped up with teams deciding how to use their funds, from buying classroom equipment to donating to the Royal Children’s Hospital, combining technology, creativity, and real-world problem-solving in one hands-on learning experience.
