i also really really wanted to organize a talk on steemit and CryptoCurrencies in my college i tried talking to student council they organized a talk on CryptoCurrency called in some experts ( So called experts)
i went for the talk in hope of collecting alot of knowledge but all i heard there was false information i could have given way better lecture on cryptos than these guys for sure....I dont know why even those guys were not much into cryptos may be because of my country m frm india the government is strongly opposing the activity of CryptoCurrencies in india....donno if its bad or worse but unless and untill people decide to do it on their own i guess these new technologies and growth will always stay backward in my country at least
