In the spirit of awareness.

I would also recommend people sit and watch this video.

I do not agree with all aspects of the presentation. However it covers the facts and presents them in a clear and well balanced manner.


(Official Movie) THRIVE: What On Earth Will It Take?

Full movie link. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lEV5AFFcZ-s

However I think it gets good here.

This video covers many important facts about our present world.

The well presented issues in the video may help others realize their place in the present global condition.

One can use this to evaluate the role that Bitcoin plays in helping us manage present world issues.


P.S. In the movie ELYSIUM they have implemented a possible application for the idea that Dr Royal Rife was working on.

Elysium trailer http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=mr5HKrv_y5E#t=28s  this link jumps you 28 seconds into the clip to see it in action.

It is covered in the documentary. The link below jumps you to the section.

Bitcoin may be one goal in getting solutions.

Thanks and feel free to add some suggestions!

Here is the radio show link - https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/link-was-on-2-online-radio-talk-show-for-30-mins-and-talked-about-bitcoins-229025

Here is an audio astrology reading (2 parts) for Bitcoin that me and Otoh paid for: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=213042.new#new
It is for fun and really spot on imo with the way BTC should proceed.

Something to consider is that no matter how far out something may be to you (e.g. astrology!) there is an audience out there that might appreciate it and then that gets more eyes on BTC . Networking...

Great! thanks for your great work

Thanks for the comments guys. Charleshoskinson, I'll PM you.

In the spirit of the thread, here are some videos to use in classrooms or to give as a link to "work friends".

The best Bitcoin videos, infographics and podcasts   http://www.coindesk.com/best-bitcoin-videos-infographics-podcasts/

I actually called into a radio show, the number 2 online talk radio show and got to speak with them for 30 minutes or so on Bitcoin (not my speaking time). I'm sure I helped a few hundred or thousand more to understand it further. I'll cross link it here once I start a thread for it.

Keep on keeping on,

I like your work can you PM me? I'd  like to collaborate.

Great idea to use Bitcoin as a conversation topic in you classes! You probably already know this video (What is Bitcoin? by weusecoins), but if not, it makes for a great (and short) introduction to Bitcoin.

I haven't seen either of the videos you mentioned. I'll save them for later viewing

ehehe, thanks, I'm wearing it now. 

But seriously guys, enough people have read this thread, I'd love some inspirational ideas and the like from you.

You deserve one virtual medal sir

I'm an English teacher in Germany so I get to talk with people about a diversity of topics, often what I suggest  . I've been educating my students on "What is money?" using videos and discussion. I've also been introducing BTC to them, which seems to complete the money education picture. I'm getting amazed at how much people are catching on. I mean most people have no idea about money, much less bitcoin. The girl I taught today works in accounting and was sort of pissed off at banking after we watched the first 20 mins of the first video below. Hopefully the Butterfly Effect has been started.

I feel like I'm doing my part to help mankind, not so much to get others educated on BTC, which happens anyway.

I've used the following two videos (both animated), which I recommend to educate people on money. (Then get into Bitcoin). I prefer the first as it is more about money, though the second is more entertaining. I'm curious if any of you are familiar with them, some feedback and perhaps other videos you may recommend. These videos might be a bit on the long side for some. Also, if you have other recommendations for educating others, I'm all ears. Eventually I hope some of my students start watching videos from The Bitcoin Education Project (which are being updated I just heard). https://www.udemy.com/bitcoin-or-how-i-learned-to-stop-worrying-and-love-crypto/

1. Money as Debt (45 mins) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jqvKjsIxT_8

2. The American Dream (30 mins) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tGk5ioEXlIM

I have brought a physical Casascius BTC into the class as well.
I also carry around this in my wallet, makes for interesting conversation and is a great intro into "What is money?":
