Yesterday Proof of Work – Chapter 8 (Part I)

Topic:Lightning Network: Using Bitcoin in Your Daily Life

Lecture by:Adam Simecka – Founder of Manna Bitcoin Wallet

Yesterday, we had an incredible and impactful session as we officially began Chapter 8 of our Bitcoin Diploma Course. The session was led by none other than Adam Simecka, a Bitcoin educator and the founder of Manna Wallet, a self-custody Bitcoin wallet that supports both on-chain and Lightning Network payments.

The class kicked off with a warm introduction from Adam, who shared his background and passion for Bitcoin. He then dived into the fundamentals of the Lightning Network, explaining how it works and its role in enabling fast, low-cost Bitcoin transactions for everyday use.

Students learned about the different types of Lightning wallets, the difference between self-custodial vs custodial wallets, and the importance of choosing open-source solutions. Adam provided a live demonstration on how to set up the Manna Bitcoin Wallet, where students actively followed along, downloaded the app, and configured their wallets with his guidance.

The session was highly interactive with active participation from students across Tanzania, Kenya, Burundi, and South Africa. To keep the energy high, we played fun Bitcoin trivia games where lucky winners were rewarded from 1,000sats to 5,000 sats each!

Adam wrapped up by teaching students how to send and receive Bitcoin via the Lightning Network, using Manna and other Lightning wallets. The hands-on learning and live examples made the session very practical and insightful.

See you all today for Chapter 8 – Part II!

Yesterday’s Proof of Work – Chapter 8 Part II

Our Bitcoin Diploma Course continued yesterday with Chapter 8 Part II, led once again by the incredible educator Adam Simecka, founder of Manna Bitcoin Wallet. The session focused deeply on the Bitcoin Lightning Network, giving students hands-on experience with real-time Bitcoin transactions.

The class was not just theoretical — it was highly practical and interactive. Students had the opportunity to send and receive sats (Bitcoin via Lightning Network) using Manna Wallet, a powerful self-custody wallet that supports both on-chain and Lightning transactions. This live experience helped students understand how simple, fast, and low-cost Lightning transactions are, empowering them to use Bitcoin in everyday life.

Adam took time to respond to students’ questions, clarify wallet features, and emphasize the difference between custodial vs non-custodial Lightning wallets. The energy and participation from the class were outstanding, with students from Tanzania, Kenya, Burundi, and South Africa engaging actively throughout the session.

We deeply appreciate Adam Simecka for his time, expertise, and dedication in leading both Part I & Part II of Chapter 8. For those who missed it, please watch the recorded session here:
