Don’t just own Bitcoin. Understand it.
Your first level is free. The Satsman Bureau Of Intelligence (SBI) offers structured, assessed Bitcoin education for beginners through experienced learners, from the foundations through advanced custody, privacy and strategy.
- Start Level 1 free: five operations and thirty short briefings. No previous Bitcoin knowledge or payment details are required.
- Pro includes Levels 1–2. Pro Max includes all three levels, with Pro Max Annual the featured paid option. Membership course access lasts while the membership is active.
- The $199 standalone purchase provides the full SBI programme without an ongoing Satsman subscription.
- Continuing learning: annual material updates and certificate editions displaying their year. Annual editions are included for eligible active members or available as a separately paid annual update for standalone buyers. The separate update price is confirmed when each update is released.
- Standalone buyers retain their purchased programme and original earned certificates without membership. A new edition year does not claim reassessment or replace the original clearance-earned date.
- 15 Operations · 90 Briefings · Field Assessments
- Complete each level to earn its clearance certificate.
- Certificates reflect course completion, not a financial qualification. The SBI Field Manual is available after completing all three clearance levels.
Bitcoin education for beginners and beyond
Level 1 begins with what Bitcoin is, where it came from, money, blockchain, keys, mining and custody. Level 2 covers nodes, fees, the Lightning Network, hardware wallets, seed phrases and market cycles. Level 3 explores mining economics, privacy, multisig, inheritance planning, treasury strategy and sound money.
Try a real SBI briefing
Read a briefing and answer five questions without an account or payment details. The sample does not award course progress, rewards or certificates.
Assessments and certificates
Six concise briefings and a field assessment in every operation. A score of 60% is required to pass. Six applied challenges in the Sovereign Test unlock after all three clearance levels.
Why the Bureau exists
SBI combines structured Bitcoin briefings, practical assessments and three clearance levels to help you build a deeper understanding of Bitcoin.
