I was at design school in 2016, we had to do an industry project and the partner was a bank...they wanted us to develop a "neo-finance" idea and I found that super boring as a premise. So me and the person I was working with decided to use that part of the course to research Blockchain. We used the research budget to buy bitcoin at a bar in town. We spent about a week reading papers and watching videos of Vitalik to figure things out. We then made and presented a project that of course no one could understand as they had zero knowledge of crypto / Blockchain. So I decided to make another project called 'What The Block' which is a game-based workshop using Lego that onboards people (even people who don't understand anything about technology) to Blockchain in an hour using Lego :) I did that for a while in my spare time and ended up on-boarding ~ 1000 ppl across 3 continents through IRL sessions https://designawards.core77.com/Design-Education-Initiative/82843/What-The-Block
