I'm going to be speaking at
IgniteDC in a week about Bitcoin and I've created a draft of the slides I'll use to introduce Bitcoin to the audience there. The format is 20 slides, and the slides change automatically every 15 seconds, and the presentation lasts 5 minutes.
Anyhow, the slides are due by Wednesday, so if you have a chance to look at them at
http://bitcoinbasics.com and give me some feedback before then about them, that'd be great. There is so much I'd like to cover and the slides don't include what I'll be saying, but if you see any glaring omissions or points I've missed, please let me know at
[email protected]Of course, feel free to use these as you see fit.
I start off talking about the history of money, then draw comparisons to other contemporary exchange/value systems, and launch into Bitcoin itself. I'll add four more slides at the end talking about The Potomac, a local currency in Washington, DC.
of course, donations are accepted at the two addresses that are listed in the slides: 1QDQUYyhLgWxhvE8o158Xr3asBd84oqvD
