Fordham University Students to Learn About Bitcoin

Staying in tune with the latest technological innovation sweeping the world off its feet, Fordham University’s Rose Hill campus is hosting roundtable discussions on cryptocurrency. The Cryptocurrency Club at Fordham University (CCFU) will explore potential uses of cryptocurrencies across various fields including finance, accounting, economics, philosophy, and computer science.
CCFU’s President and Co-founder Ryan Chand said, ‘The block chain is essentially a permanent ledger where computers verify transactions multiple times to prove they’re real. It removes the sense of an authoritative agency, which is very disruptive.’
According to the official announcement, members will be provided with a Bitcoin starter pack that will help in an easier understanding of the relatively new technology. The starter pack will include a list of prominent firms that deal with Bitcoin and a copy of the original white paper in which the creator Satoshi Nakamoto outlined the formula for Bitcoin.
