With bitcoin constantly in the news, a single bitcoin breaking $20,000, and articles about people buying virtual "Cryptokitties" with Ethereum, it seems cryptocurrency has finally gone mainstream. It was a process over eight years in the making, but now's the perfect time to dig in. It's easier than ever to buy cryptocurrency, and it's a space that's especially ripe for Tech Ladies, from Blockchain development to startup funding via initial coin offerings (ICOs). In this 101-level webinar, tech writer and public speaker Kimberly Koenig breaks down how Blockchain works, then goes beyond to the broader social and technological implications. We'll discuss how it's revolutionizing multiple industries and you'll leave not just with a handle on the basics, but better prepared for discussing, investing, and even pursuing a career in this exciting space. Kimberly Koenig is a tech writer, public speaker, and program manager with a computer science background and 5+ years of industry experience at companies like Microsoft. Her tech and writing chops are her superpowers. She loves pairing analytical and creative skills to break down complex concepts like blockchain, and she’s passionate about closing the cryptocurrency gender gap. Want to connect?
