The Great Financial Shift — DeFi Masterclass
You feel like something's shifted. You don't trust the system the way you used to, but you don't know what else there is, or who to actually trust instead.
We felt the same. That's why this masterclass exists, we went looking for answers ourselves, the hard way, and now we're closing that gap for you.
In 90 minutes, we'll cover how money evolved to where it is today, how the traditional system actually works (and who it works for), and what exists outside it: self custody, tokenisation, and DeFi. Not just the benefits, the real risks too, and exactly how to navigate it all safely. You'll walk away knowing how to take back control of your money, without needing to be technical or already "into crypto."
Something is changing.
Most people can feel it.
Almost nobody can explain it.
"I feel like something is changing but I can't explain what."
The global financial system is undergoing its biggest structural shift in decades. You're not imagining it.
"I don't trust banks the way I used to."
You own a claim to your money — not your money. There's a difference, and most Australians don't know it.
"I keep hearing about crypto but nobody explains it properly."
The noise is loud. The signal is buried. This webinar cuts through both.
"I don't want to be left behind."
Understanding comes before decisions. You don't need to buy anything. You need to understand what's happening.
No hype. No jargon.
No crypto bro nonsense.

Six modules. 90 minutes.
Everything you actually need to know.
From Barter to Bitcoin
Every monetary system in history is ultimately a trust system. We trace 5,000 years of that trust — from barter and coins to paper money, the gold standard, fiat currency, and Bitcoin.
The Problem With The Current System
Fractional reserve banking. Bank bail-ins. Frozen accounts. Inflation. Most people think they own their money. In reality, they own a claim to their money. There's a critical difference.
DeFi vs Centralised Finance
What is DeFi? What are smart contracts? How do wallets and blockchains actually work? We break down how decentralised finance removes intermediaries — and replaces trust in institutions with trust in transparent, verifiable code.
Tokenisation
Property. Art. Businesses. Almost any real-world asset can now be digitally represented and globally tradable. We cover what tokenisation is, why it matters, and where it's heading.
Navigating the Space Safely
Scams are real. Audits matter. Due diligence is non-negotiable. We'll show you exactly how to evaluate anything in this space before you touch it — on-chain verification, red flags, and how to think like a researcher.
Self Custody
If you don't control your keys, you don't control your assets. We walk through wallets, private keys, seed phrases, and hardware wallets — in plain English.
Paced so nothing feels rushed —
and nothing gets skipped.
Four bonus resources
worth having, even after the webinar.
Setting Up Your Self-Custody Wallet
A step-by-step guide to setting up your own non-custodial crypto wallet — the right way. Covers wallet selection, security setup, and the key mistakes to avoid right from the start.
Buying Crypto & Storing It In Your Self-Custody Wallet
Exactly how to buy cryptocurrency for the first time in Australia and move it directly into your own wallet — so it's truly yours, not sitting on an exchange. Bank-specific tips included.
The Beginner's Crypto Glossary
Every term you'll hear in the DeFi world — explained in plain English, no fluff. Bookmark it, search it, come back to it. The reference you'll use long after the webinar ends.
DeFi Workbook — Know What You Know
Structured questions and prompts you work through as you learn. Test your understanding, spot the gaps, and turn the theory into something you can actually apply.
What you get, when it lands,
and what it's worth.
$190 in free bonuses — plus your workbook, glossary and full 14-day replay, all included.
Taught by people who've actually built in this space.
Rick Baker
Rick is the founder of Learn Crypto Global and The Tokenised Asset Academy, both award-winning blockchain and digital assets education platforms focused on making emerging technologies accessible to individuals, businesses and institutions worldwide.
Having been teaching internationally for over 15 years, worked in the blockchain and cryptocurrency sector since 2017, he has educated thousands of learners across multiple countries on topics including digital assets, decentralised finance (DeFi), blockchain technology and tokenisation. His work has been recognised with the International FinTech Award for Best Digital Asset and Blockchain Education Platform 2 years running, and his organisation was selected to exhibit at Web Summit as part of the ALPHA startup programme.
Today, Rick works at the intersection of education, tokenisation and financial innovation, helping professionals, organisations and investors understand the opportunities and challenges of the rapidly evolving digital economy while bridging the knowledge gap between traditional finance, blockchain technology and the future of everything... Tokenisation.
Jayla Cross
Jayla isn't a tech wiz or coder. She actually found herself in this space after losing her job and finding herself $40,000 in debt with no clear way forward. She started looking into DeFi, searching for answers — and quickly realised how little she actually understood about money or the financial system. That gap was the wake-up call.
She stayed open to the education, put in the time, money and effort, and learned from people who've been operating in this space since 2015 and 2016 — until DeFi, blockchain, tokenomics and security stopped feeling foreign and started feeling like a second language.
Today, she educates everyday Australians on decentralised finance, digital assets and self-custody. She's personally educated over 500 people at the Wealth Odyssey event on the Gold Coast, and gone on to teach hundreds more through webinars, in-person sessions and 1-on-1 mentoring.
Rick brings the technical depth. Jayla brings the proof that you don't need to be technical to understand this — just open to the education and learning from people who have experience and real knowledge in this space.

This webinar is for you if...
The Curious Investor
You're looking beyond property, shares, and super. You want to understand what else is happening in the financial world before everyone else catches up.
The Informed Professional
You're a professional — accountant, lawyer, adviser, broker — and clients are starting to ask you about blockchain, tokenisation, and digital assets. You need to actually understand it before they do.
The Everyday Saver
Inflation is real, cost of living is up, and you feel like the system isn't working for your generation — wherever you're based. You want to understand what alternatives exist.
The Aspiring Builder
You're interested in Web3, smart contracts, and digital ownership. You want a solid foundation before you go deeper.
What people are saying
Feedback from our community — Australia and beyond.
"I have heard of crypto but it was always the bad things about it, i never actually understood it. But im so glad i took the time to jump on and learn from you guys because you explained it so clearly for a beginner like me to understand."
"Thank you for spending the time walking me through the process and making sure i actually understand each part instead of rushing through."
"I thought i had an idea about DEFI, but you guys truly helped me really understand this space to another level without making me feel overwhelmed."
Questions? Answered.
The system wasn't built for your generation.
Understanding it is the first step to building outside of it.
