"Traditional education wasn't preparing my generation for what's coming. So I built the bridge myself."
At YBA, students learn how blockchains record transactions and manage digital ownership. Projects give members a chance to test those ideas and understand their limits.
Our Vision
We want students to start YBA chapters at their schools, share lessons, and work on blockchain projects together.
