Fact Check
The official University of Tampa course catalog confirms a finance course is offered that 'delves into blockchain ecosystems' and explicitly covers topics like 'cryptography in Bitcoin' and 'proof-of-work (PoW)'. This is corroborated by a social media post which claims it is the 'first-ever' such course. While the 'first-ever' detail is not confirmed by the official university source, the core claim that a course covering Bitcoin is being taught is well-supported by primary evidence.
