Bitcoin and digital assets are gaining popularity; the industry is moving at an incredibly fast pace and it can be hard to keep up.

To combat this, Troy Parker from CoinCorner is offering a one hour education session. Starting from the beginning, we will explain:

· What is Bitcoin?

· Why Bitcoin?

· Altcoins & Tokens

· Stablecoins

· KYC, Compliance and Transaction Screening

· Payments

· Bitcoin and the Environment

· Q&A

This is not a "tech" heavy presentation, but is instead tailored to benefit anyone who may already be fielding questions about these subjects, or will likely encounter such enquiries in the future, as the industry continues to grow.

No prerequisite knowledge is needed and there are no stupid questions.
