C4 makes you think it is, to sell their certificate (even if the price is quite reasonnable I must admit).
Would be also curious to see if any serious Bitcoin startup consider it as a real plus vs proven experience like: Bitcoin full node and Lighning node runner, Multisign experience, Bitcoin core CLI experience...

Thank you for downloading! Good question- I am, generally speaking a fan of certificates, it means one is learning & developing. I mentioned somewhere in the guide, you could find any relatable certificates and conduct it.
Now, the industry is filled with different certificates and my thoughts are mixed when it comes to it- what would give you a real learning value and what won’t?
However, from a professional perspective, I don’t think it would push your application to the top. It is, at the end of the day, a learning experience not a job requirement. As Eluc mentioned, there are more important things. Let’s say you aren’t technical (I’m not!)- your overall contribution to the space is more important than a piece of paper saying you are educated on the topic. There are a lot of free learning resources online that will not give you a certificate- does it mean you are not educated if there is no paper to prove it?
