We have heard about Bitcoin but many people don't understand Bitcoin ... especially the "experts". Mr. Cannon has been interested in currencies for many years and had several questions about Bitcoin. How does someone use Bitcoin? is it an investment, and what does that even mean? What is mining? Are there business opportunities? What does the future hold? When doing the research, Mr. Cannon found most of the financial experts start their analysis of Bitcoin with “I don’t understand Bitcoin, but …” and then proceed to tell you how bad it is. So he did his own research. This presentation will help you understand Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies and to understand the significance of this exciting new technology. Share with others, but seating is limited, so be sure to register.
