Topic: Anyone here Studying Econ ? (Read 177 times)
So interesting course like Bitcoin, pretty interesting in transaction and investment.
I have taught/did presentations for undergrad and professional level. Why? Is there a problem?
Blockchain and Bitcoin is a pretty interesting topic in financial technology, so it should be okay for the high school level.
I have done so; not a difficult topic to explore too...Blockchain and Bitcoin is a pretty interesting topic in financial technology, so it should be okay for the high school level.
I did a presentation in my class, most people liked it too...
I haven't experienced sharing my knowledge in front of many people but I have tried explaining it to my friends. It is a bit tough because the choice of words should be easy for them to understand. Since it is a broad topic, I tried forming a structure.
1.Things they know
2.Things they want to know
3. Combination of these two
I even used representations in order for them to get it easily so I don't know how hard will it be sharing it to a larger scale of people.
I am pretty great at making stuff up on the fly, I have done that in one of my presentations before, a teacher asked us to pick something that is embedded in american culture, and I picked NFL or american football in general, and that is what I did, however I forgot about it until the morning of it, so on the morning class I didn't listen to the class itself and just made my presentation on powerpoint right there in 50 minutes, after the break when we came back I did the presentation and got A- from it.
So, if I can just make stuff up for American football which I am not that much interested in except maybe super bowl, I can definitely do crypto without anything beforehand, I can just get up and talk half an hour without any stopping and can even do a Q and A about it with the whole class as well.

Economy? We have a specific subject about the Economy which is Engineering Economy, I don't know what the differences but probably it's almost the same.
My professor also tackled cryptocurrency and if ever he asked me to present about it, I will do present and explain it.
I gained a lot of knowledge here in the forum for almost 2-3 years and I would like to share those knowledge that I've learned.
It also makes me proud that I have a knowledge where only a few people knew about it. Even though it's kinda complex and difficult to explain, I'll try my best to make my block mates interested on cryptocurrency.

If the teacher called on you to make a Crypto presentation to the class, would you do it?
Or have you even done a crypto based school project or paper?
Yes,I can present cryptoccurrency perfectly, because one of the course's i study in university is bitcoin related course.
I was asked in my seminar presentation to discuss about entrepreneurship and trading, so it was done perfectly,so based on that I can discuss about bitcoin at any level.
The only people that can not write topic on bitcoin is people that don't have passion on crptocurrency.
Cryptoccurrency is everywhere,at this point cryptoccurrency is suppose to be a course of its own in some universities like entrepreneurship is one of the major courses.

I sure would, but then the type of audience will have to finally decide whether or not I would be the perfect man to speak to them about cryptocurrency.
If they are crypto newbies who are after the basics of Bitcoin in relation to economics, I might be able to fairly meet their expectations after a certain amount of research, but if they are technical people who are more interested on the minute details of the network's security or algorithm or whatever technical aspect I'm afraid I'd rather say no.

Econ students would not care about SHA-256, RIPEMD-160, base58, secp256k1, etc. it's usually about virtual currency or money.
Dude, that's exactly what I said, right?
However, in the near future when there's an economy which is fully based on cryptocurrency, economic majors will have to have knowledge at least on its basic technical aspects. Somewhere, there would be an overlap of the economy and the technical aspects of the currency upon which it is based.
A national economy ran on cryptocurrency, on a decentralized system, is actually an uncharted territory and deeper discussions on it will have to touch the stability, reliability, and security of cryptocurrency.

I have studied econ for a year and quit it to move to something else. I could tell you that econ at the basic core is not what you think it is, most of the time they are teaching you what economy is, and that is a very difficult to thing to handle, after all you either know most of them or they are boring so you do not care.
Not like the first day you start off with bollinger band and how that would change your trading, you are starting off with "what is gdp" and that stuff is just boring but they have to do it to make sure everyone knows the basic concepts of economy. That is why I quit and I realized economy is not for me, I rather focus on something more creative instead. I came back to econ basically with crypto, only because it was creative and different.

In 2017, when I was studying for my Masters in Chemical Engineering, I was surprised when my co-supervisor asked me about bitcoin because as at that time almost everyone in my department had about bitcoin which was trending then. I was asked to make a mini-presentation about what it is. I was intrigued to know they are interested to learn. I explained to them and thanks, they were all ground in engineering economics so they quickly understand me. I explained to them the blockchain technology, Bitcoin, and altcoin. They are much interested in the blockchain technology and I was so surprised when one of them think they can use the technology as part of the development of student academic database.
I mean, why not? It's the teacher who asked you to do it in the first place. The real question is, are you going to deny that authority? What's the worst thing that could happen? You're a forum member which means that you have at least knowledge about cryptocurrency, that's a good start.
I've never presented anything like that but if you consider explaining to a friend or acquaintance, then yes.

It's just schoolwork, and school will only shape us into workers. I know a little about crypto, so I'll present a little on that. Don't expect to get a perfect score, but being the best in class is enough to make you feel good.
However, an important point for those of you who have attractiveness and also good material delivery techniques, like it or not, you must introduce crypto to other people. And here is your golden opportunity to show that crypto has great potential for the future

Yes, of course, why not. But I had graduated in college and Bitcoin in my country isn't that popular at that time.
Probably because they didn't have the interest to know about this and even though I quite late discover this (the year 2017) and I already got a job.
Even though you aren't in school you can teach your colleague or even your co-worker, it's an interesting topic to discuss financial technology using Bitcoin and the blockchain technology behind on it.
I have a plan when we have a community relation service, I'd like to discuss crypto stuff and blockchain technology, how it will help financially and of course, it also includes the risk on it.

Yes of course it would be a pleasure to me to share my knowledge and experience about cryptocurrencies and present it in front of the class. Also, I would be glad that there would be a teacher that is interested or curious to know about cryptocurrency because rarely people do recognize crypto so such opportunity to explain it in front as a presentation would be a pleasure to me to do such thing.
Actually I have already done such on one of our subjects when our professors have an inquiry about the here abouts cryptocurrencies and I am glad to answer all of his inquiries because it have enlighten him as well as my classmates all things that they must know about cryptocurrencies involving certain issues and misconceptions that are being thrown against crypto. By that, I have let them know the basics and clarified things out.

It would be awesome that a teacher will ask this kind of presentation. It just shows that awareness is looking good as crypto is progressing. Good opportunity to promote crypto, at least even in front of a few audiences.
Anyways, I've become one of the speakers in some small seminars I have attended back then (way back mid-2016). The concept of the seminar is about crypto-awareness so more of basics and sharing our own view. I personally have known some of my co-speakers and they decided to invite me to share my views as a newbie (I've involved in crypto in 2016).
I'm not new at this speaking in front of a live audience so I'm just saying my personal views about why I involved in crypto and anything else. Hopefully, those people that are present and listened back then are now crypto-oriented people and continue their journey even they faced the 2018 big bloodbath in the crypto-market.
Well, I assume most of the people in this community has graduated from college before Bitcoin got it's popularity.
In 2010-2015 you won't hear much about Bitcoin. So, I guess that would make it less interesting topic to present such as research papers back then. I have first heard about Bitcoin in 2012 and It didn't catch my interest.
But, If I'm given a time today If I'm still a student, I would definitely be sharing it even If my teacher/prof won't tell me to do so. And the best thing to do it is through research paper. With some panelist in attendance, this topic would be more interesting and understandable for both students and teachers.
So, If you're planning to make a topic about cryptocurrency in general or your teacher have asked you to do it, don't hesitate and present it to your class, I'm pretty sure you'll have a good output.

I know something about economics but i do know enough about cryptocurrencies, did you know that there is a platform where you can create tokens? you can create token on the MintMe platform for free. Do you know what is the best of all this? that this platform allows you to create a project and monetize it through tokens. And not only this, it also allows you to make and receive donations
Honestly before I graduated last 2 years ago most of the projects and presentations I have seen in multiple subjects are related to cryptocurrencies particularly Bitcoin maybe its the new trend of being unique or showing something new to the class and the professors but literally more than 30% are showing it at that time. And in most times our teachers are left with more questions rather than answers it might be because they aren't even aware of what cryptocurrencies are or they fail to understand the importance of it either way the students are more knowledgeable compared to them. So I don't think there will be any kind of problems when it comes to students presenting them in classes as maybe in most of the times they'll be able to answer their questions.
I took a few upper-level economics courses in college, though it wasn't my major, nor was bitcoin even around until the very last course economics class I took. The class was given a project to do but we weren't required to present the results to the rest of the class, and even if I had known about bitcoin at the time I'm pretty sure I wouldn't have picked it for my project.
Would I present something crypto-related if I were given a chance in an economics course now if I were a student? Hell yes I would. And if I were younger, I'd probably have a better knowledge of the technical aspects of bitcoin...but alas, I'm not and I'm learning things much more slowly these days.
I bet you that discussions centered around bitcoin (and cryptocurrency in general) are happening quite a bit on college campuses today. At least I hope that's the case. It's definitely a topic that the new generation is going to pick up and run with--and they've already got a head start on that, too.
