This course had a significant amount of complex information in a changing digital environment. It is something every attorney needs to understand when dealing with clients in a global environment.

I would have liked a little more explanation (other than "rewards") as to how bad actors are kept out of the mining system. Excellent presentation and outline. Thank you

Excellent presentation of a complicated subject.

Very concise and clear presentation of a topic that is becoming increasingly relevant but for which the common lawyer/businessperson has little common knowledge.

Some of the information was very technical, but the examples were helpful.

Information about bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies.

It was helpful.
