We will be talking about a GenerationBitcoin.com, which redirects to a facebook page for young adults to discuss Bitcoin topics. We will be discussing our experience with Bitcoin and giving a general overview of how Bitcoin works.



In the workshop, I will be presenting the kids with 4 crypto puzzles that will make them use different encoding methods to gain access to some private keys. Here's where you come in and will make a great talking point for the presentation. You have the opportunity to contribute to the reward for solving these problems.

We had about 30 people in our Generation Bitcoin talk and there was over 100 kids in attendance for the whole Defcon Kids event.



BTW, I think the thing that flipped my lid the most was the number of girl hackers there were. The ratio was 3:1 girls to boys at my crypto challenge.



Thanks for the support guys! This really was an awesome experience! I'm very proud of my kid PWNING a lot of the other events and challenges. They had to create a new award category just for her this year: Most Valuable Hacker.
