Here is how IBM did it. At a conference, or whatever, they asked participants to download a weather app. Then this happened.....

Thanks guys, that is what I was thinking. Not elegant, but might be fun to show how bitcoin can be physical.

printed wallets with small amounts seems to be the solution.

Physical coins? Similarly, create whole bunch of .01btc wallet, then print out private address in a paper, you can use iPhone to import it, or in October, manually enter it. All you do in event is to hand out papers.

Not the best, but this is what I can think of.

Hi all,

I'm running an event next month where one part will involve giving out small amounts of Bitcoin (we have 50e which we will be mostly using just to show people what Bitcoin looks like, how the blockchain works, etc.).

How should I go about this? I wanted to do it using the Bitcoin Core mobile app until someone pointed out not everyone will have a smartphone or, more importantly, not everyone likes to download apps they are not used to, i.e. it won't be like when Ver hands out Bitcoin to a room of people that are very tech-savvy.

So what are my options?
