As the largest gathering in the Southeast for digital content creators, this event was a great opportunity to see and experience the latest innovations in gaming, virtual reality and digital entertainment.
Orlando Interactive Experience - - OrlandoiX - - was held at Full Sail University last week, and attracted quite a large crowd of people...I met every type of gamer and tech enthusiast.
There were a ton of projects to demo and plenty of games to play!!
The Virtual Reality Experiences were very popular, with people lining up to take their turns...
There really was something for everyone, and the energy in the room was contagious....
I was able to connect with so many new people, and it seems like the gaming community has a lot in common with those in the cryptospace...
As someone who talks to literally everyone they meet about bitcoin, steemit, liberty, etc.....it was pretty cool to get feedback from people who have actually heard about cryptocurrency before lol!
( Instead of most people who have no clue and just look at me like I might be crazy Lol )
A lot of people were curious about how it really works, and had interesting questions to ask me. I was able to clear up some popular myths about bitcoin, and practically everyone was eager to learn more about the latest opportunities to enter the new world of digital money!
One thing that had a lot of gamers excited that day was the awesome gaming tournaments being sponsored right now by ZENCash.

It's still essential to get out and meet up in person. Followup remains something that many don't do and the connections made can wither out unless maintained either virtually or in person.
So true!
