You may remember a recent post in which I shared that interviewed me about crypto and Dash for her YouTube channel.
We explained wallets, I sent her Dash live on air, etc. But sadly the audio turned out so bad that we couldn't really publish it. So we decided to do it again - this time with a live audience.
That day was yesterday!
Suzanne had organised a "My first Crypto" workshop at a co-working space, and almost 40 people showed up! And believe it or not - about 80% were women!
That was way more than we had chairs for, so many of them had to sit on the floor.
I noticed that I knew almost half the people in the room in person.
Two and a half weeks ago I arrived here, knowing nobody besides Suzanne. The digital nomad and crypto community is very strong and close here, though, and everyone is so open that you can't help but meet nice people here every day.
So we shared how this new digital money is different from the digital money we already have, and why we should be interested in this whole crypto thing at all.
Then we helped everyone to install a Dash wallet or a Jaxx wallet. For most of them it was their very first one.
I did a live demonstration with one "guinea pig" in front of the group and showed how easy and fast Dash can be sent from one wallet to another, and then 30 people queued up to receive their Dash :)
I had to hurry before my phone ran out of power. Thank God Dash is super fast, so I could get to everyone before it was too late.
We got great feedback and had a lot of fun, too, so maybe I'm going to start offering these beginner's workshops in Berlin as well...
Let's see! :)
