On the 20th of April 2023, I hosted a physical Cardano meetup event titled “Cardano Campus Meetup Edition 3” in Nalerigu, North East Region, Ghana.
I Recorded a total of 124 participants attending the event.
12 participants registered using the meetup link created while 70 registered with google form I created to support the meetup link and 42 registered on the day of event at the venue.
our discussions were around the areas;
Intro to Blockchain and cryptos
Blockchain use cases in healthcare (Nutrition).
Overview of Cardano blockchain & Project catalyst.
Wallet creation using Yoroi etc
Over 90% of the participants were new to blockchain technology and were creating a digital wallet for the first time.
Most of the participants couldn’t create the wallet at the time of the conference due to internet connectivity issues thus the entire MTN network was temporarily down. However, about 20 participants were able to create their first crypto wallet during the meetup and sent their addresses to me via WhatsApp since they were using Vodafone network which was working well as at the time of the conference.
It was such an exciting moment since the audience were happy learning something new and seeing the connection of blockchain technology with their field of study.
Below is the link to the excerpts for the event which is uploaded on YouTube:
