What is Blockchain
As Dustin's Hoffman's character was told in the movie "The Graduate": "One word: ....[Blockchain]"  Well, not exactly, but what is "blockchain"?  Why should you know or care about it?  What is blockchain used for?  What does it look or feel like?  How do you use it?  

Join us for the December 8 NSCS virtual presentation, in which technology expert Mr. Patrick Barosy will explain in plain english what blockchain is. In addition to answering the latter questions, he will answer any of your questions too.

Mr. Barosy is an educator and technologist, real estate entrepreneur, and self-taught web developer as well as a photographer and videographer. His passion is navigating the intersection of education and technology.

Explore further: A blockchain is a new way of keeping track of transactions - i.e. a ledger, which is traditionally a manual accounting tool - with built-in proof/authentication that the information provided is verified and trustworthy - i.e. notary service/signature (called a "hash" in computer lingo) is embedded. If you would like to learn more about blockchain, here's a short YouTube video.
