Announcing: Cyfrin Updraft

Introducing: Cyfrin Updraft

I’ve created a monster Web3 tutorial every year for the last 3 years. My first two are now the #1 and #2 most-watched smart contract developer tutorials on earth.

Learn to code smart contracts and solidity view count
2.4M and 3.3M view respectfully

Having done so many of these, I’ve seen a trend. The most common feedback I get is:

Hey Patrick, love your videos. Thank you so much, but I hate scrubbing through YouTube videos. Could you please upload this course to a website that is more conducive to my learning experience?

So we did that.

And we took the most recent (and amazing) solidity & foundry full course and uploaded it to Cyfrin Updraft, and then we spent months and made *you know, no big deal* the most insane smart contract auditing and security course ever created.

The Journey Begins with Early Access

We kicked off Cyfrin Updraft with early access.

Why?

  1. It’s a new platform, and we want to get it right
  2. We want to incentivize you to stop watching me on YouTube and watch us on Updraft

The learning experience is 10 times better than on YouTube, and will allow us to keep the content up to date. So in order to get access to this new security course early, you have to sign up for Updraft!

Yes, we will put the course on YouTube eventually, but you will learn better on Updraft. Plain and simple.
