Quote from: Yifu Guo
I've been asked to do a presentation/event sort of thing for Bitcoins at NYU sometime in December, more detail will follow when I set up a site for it as I plan to provide transparency in this project as well*.

edit: for those who don't know me, I'm the host of NYC bitcoin weekly meet up, webmaster and coordinator of http://operationbitcoin.org and http://bitcoinnavigator.com

I however being the more technical guy when it comes to Bitcoins feels a bit lost trying to become essentially a "sales" person and perhaps being too granular in the information. I hope to get some feedback on what important stuff I should focus on during this presentation from the community.

What I have in mind so far are:

  • Fiat Money vs Bitcoins
  • Bitcoin User Cases e.g. international remittance.
  • Tech Demo: currently plan to send some btc over skype to a different continent.
  • Temp Exchange: making easy for audience to obtain/buy bitcoins.
comments/questions/feedback are greatly welcome, Thanks reddit Smiley

I'll be forwarding the information in the forums over, Thanks!

I would love to make presentations in Thailand as well. Would you be willing to share your slideshows with the community?

Also, Congrats and best of luck! Hope many people get turned on. Universities are a great way to grow usage.

Yifu's been very keen on providing transparency in the stuff he and BitSyncom(?) gets involved in, I'm sure he'll be uploading this too.

from what I hear there are plans to go down to china with Roger from memorydealers.com to talk to manufactures to accept Bitcoins but this is just rumor status for now I think, but it's definitely been discussed about, china is a big market.

Here are some raw notes I used for a presentation at the Booth school of business in Chicago. Anyone who wants can use it for your own projects.
