Join us today (03-Aug-2026) at 8:00 PM IST / 2:30 PM UTC for Latest in Bitcoin Tech
Today, we will discuss:
i) Random processes and entropy
ii) Entropy’s relationship to private keys
iii) How Satoshi generated entropy and private keys
iv) How hardware wallets generate entropy
v) Hardware-generated vs. human-generated entropy
This primer will help participants make informed decisions amid recent concerns involving a particular hardware wallet.

Bitcoin 101: How to Build Money Without a Middleman
🗓️Sunday, 23rd August
🕧11:00 AM - 1:00 PM
Most financial systems run on institutional authority; Bitcoin runs on deterministic math, real-world physics, and game-theoretic incentives.
This session strips away the market noise to inspect the core architecture from scratch, showing how basic cryptography, energy expenditure, and economic incentives build open, permissionless money.

ANNOUNCEMENT: LAUNCH OF A NEW BITSHALA CLUB 🚀⚡️
The Cryptographic Foundations of Bitcoin
Join us for our new club every Thursday at 8:00 PM IST / 2:30 PM UTC beginning from 06th Aug. In this club, we will learn what Bitcoin is actually made of.
🗓️ When: Every Thursday
🕕8:00 PM IST / 2:30 PM UTC
🎙️Hosted by: @sha512rma, M.Sc. Cybersecurity, Focus areas: ZK-ML, verifiable inference and compute, decentralized AI, applied cryptography, LLM guardrails, red-teaming, and differential privacy.
We start with one-way functions and what "hard" really means in cryptography. From there we work through hash functions and how they become Proof-of-Work, Merkle trees and the proofs that let light clients verify a block, elliptic curves and the secp256k1 group your keys live in, ECDSA and Schnorr signatures, and finally threshold schemes like MuSig2 and FROST.
Bitcoin's security is not a matter of trust or opinion. It rests on a handful of mathematical assumptions, and in this club we will implement them ourselves.

Bitcoin Wallets: You Don't Store Bitcoin, You Manage Keys | Pune
📅 Saturday, 08th August
⏰ 4:45 PM - 7:00 PM
Your wallet holds zero Bitcoin; it holds the exact mathematical secrets required to convince a global network that you have the right to move it.
In this Bitshala meetup, we abandon consumer abstractions to focus on protocol reality: wallets are deterministic cryptographic key managers that construct and sign state transitions for an open ledger.

Join us today (31-Jul-2026) at 8:00 PM IST / 2:30 PM UTC for Bitshala Reading Club
We’re in Week 3 of "The Psychology of Money" by Morgan Housel in the Bitcoin Reading Club.
Today’s Reading Club explores four ideas from The Psychology of Money about building lasting wealth through disciplined saving, wise decisions, patience, and resilience. Join us for practical lessons on money, wealth, and long-term success.

Bitcoin Transactions, Blocks and Mining | Andheri, Mumbai
📅 Saturday, 08th August
🕛 11:00 AM - 2:00 PM
Bitcoin has no accounts, no balances, and no central server, yet it reliably tracks value across thousands of independent nodes.
In this session, we trace the full lifecycle of a transaction, from elliptic curves and address derivation to mempool dynamics, Merkle trees, and Nakamoto consensus, culminating in constructing and broadcasting a raw transaction directly onto the Bitcoin testnet.

Our first Bitcoin meetup in Kolkata is here! 🎉
Bitcoin 101: How Digital Money Works Without Banks
📅 Saturday, 22 August
🕦 11:30 AM–1:30 PM
Every economy depends on a ledger to keep track of who owns what. Bitcoin is the first global financial ledger maintained by mathematics, cryptography, and a distributed network—not by banks.
Join us for an interactive, beginner-friendly introduction to Bitcoin and how it works. No prior knowledge is required—just bring your curiosity!
