Bitcoin High School is a very early-stage educational platform (launched Jan 1, 2026) aiming to teach STEM subjects through Bitcoin-themed inquiry-based learning. While the website is live with initial curriculum modules, verifiable traction is minimal, consisting primarily of a Stacker News introduction and a new X account with under 20 followers. The claim of '4000 reached' appears to refer to social impressions rather than active students. The project demonstrates niche utility and a clear vision but lacks significant technical innovation or market validation at this time.
