Yesterday I put on a free seminar for delegates on Blockchain, Steemit, Bitcoin and many other of the important implications of this new technology. The crowd was a mix of complete newbies and some more advanced users. We put on break out events and used discussions to enhance learning. The event was in collaboration with Future Leaders Club Everyone learned something new and many will have had their thoughts on Blockchain changed for ever (for the positive of course)
I want to thank @calliestarkey and @joannaaxinte and Jazz Singh from Future Leaders for helping me to put the event on.
Videos and more professional photos to follow, however here is a mix of tweets and pics from twitter that we could find during the event!
Please visit Future Leaders on Twitter to see how the event was received HERE!!

Decentralisein5 telling @_Future_Leaders about varying cryptocurrencies and their value in today's world… https://twitter.com/i/web/status/891289333835210752
I enjoyed the event thoroughly - great introduction to the subject and left me eager to learn more. (Which is why I'm here now - took more than a fortnight to get approved, which does worry me a bit, but I trust Steem will solve the bottleneck problem!)
Addendum to the day: My partner and I did a bit more research on the way home and impulsively bought a few "Antshares" each on the back of it... we're both exceedingly happy about it now that they've become "Neo!" Apologies for having to dash off for a train, but we both loved it - incredible day out; hugely informative about the transformative technology that is blockchain. Kudos^10 - keep it up, more people need to be aware of how digital technology is changing the world as we know it.

This gets my up vote!! Really great to have you at the event! thanks for taking my word and joining!! :)) Look forward to hearing more from you on here! STEEMON! By the way, really really happy to hear you got into ant shares. CONGRATULATIONS!! However, please do what i said and DONT RISK TOO MUCH!! it will only consume you with greed and end up hurting you in the long run! Good luck with NEO!!
I see antshares / NEO is up 5.5x since the day you bought it! Pints are on you next time I see you ;)) there is a meet up for steemit on 16th September if you are interested.

This is great. What a wonderful post and event. I think it's really a credit to yourself, that people like you and other whales are giving their time to encourage the minnows to find out more about crypto and Steem. I realise you are trying to help people have an independent future. Thank you

Great to spread the idea of blockchain to normal people. Everyone needs to know this. The technology behind is not clear to the majority. Everyone heard already Bitcoin, but that's it.
Well done.

Agreed, Bitcoin is actually a great example to use to help newbies understand the fundamentals. From that the altcoins can be explained,

nice @starkerz u invite a program...r u know any news about btc-e

Yes, they have been involved in a scandle which relates the person accused of hacking the MtGox exchange in 2013 to BTC-e where this person was said to have been selling the stolen coins. BTC-e have been quoted as saying they know the suspect well in the past and so the SEC has fined BTC-e with a huge fine, as far as I know. Also BTC-e could be down while the Bitcoin segwit drama unfolds...
