This class will teach you the how and why of cryptocurrency--its history, technology, usage, legislation and controversies around the increased adoption of crypto. Presented by Michael Gershbein.

Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies continue to dominate financial and political headlines. This class will provide you with the history of crypto and some context for today's usage. It will not teach you how to get rich with bitcoin but will instead offer a look at the potential and risks of an increasingly crypto-invested society.

While employed as a public librarian for 10 years, Mike Gershbein provided one-on-one and group instruction in all types of technology. He is the founder of Very Smart People, helping individuals of all ages learn about personal technology in a way that is fun and easy with a goal of making our lives better.
