Is bitcoin for everyone?
I have been getting a lot of questions from friends and associates about Bitcoin. They know I am involved with bitcoin and are curious to know what it is all about and what I have been doing with it. I had an idea to make a video so I don't have to keep explaining it. I have found that when you explain things like bitcoin to people it is really hard for them to "get it". The really need to be shown what is possible.
Anyway here is a draft of the outline I plan on using for the video. I thought I would post it ahead of making the video in case anyone has any feedback I can use for my video. I will be sure to post it here to steem when I am done. You will be free to share it as you like. Sharing is caring. I will make it as generic as possible no promotions or referrals links.
