Andreas Antonopoulos is too self indulgent to be taken seriously as a real lecturer. He has no technical background in cryptography or distributed systems, just a former computing student who doesn't work in computing. Except when he got a job as CTO at blockchain.info, lol. He mostly speaks on internet chat-shows.
Not someone to be taken seriously, however good his comparisons/metaphors for explaining Bitcoin are.

Carlton you not serious about this right? Why do you need a technical expert to speak about the economical/social impact of Bitcoin? Andreas is the best man for the job, because he has the ability to comprehend the difference between coding Bitcoin and applying it in the real world. He has travelled the world, and he has spoken to thousands of people in this scene. I have to differ from you on this one, because I know of no better speaker than Andreas that would hit this out of the ball park.
If this was a technical seminar for programmers and developers, I would have agreed with you. ^hmmmm^
