Talking Tech: What is Crypto?

An introductory look at peer-to-peer digital asset systems.

When people use phrases such as crypto currency, bitcoin, blockchain or NFTs, do you wonder what they’re talking about? You may have heard about the volatility of crypto: the huge gains or extreme losses when investing.

Come along and learn a little about crypto. In simplified terms we’ll explore what it is, how it works, why it might appeal to investors and how to protect yourself from crypto scammers.

Please note: This talk is for general technology information only. It is not an investment seminar and does not provide financial advice or guidance on investing with cryptocurrency.
