Hi Steemit! Starting a new crypto-currency project with our IB Economics class at Springstead High School!

This account will be the class account for our project. We will be posting class projects about different economic concepts in the areas of microeconomics, macroeconomics, development economics, and international economics. We are using Steemit to study Bitcoin and other altcoins, further analyzing the use of crypto-currency on international markets.

The 15 students involved are:
@nidolabz
@juansebastianc9
@diss0nance
@bennyandthejets
@cupofjoe3474
@cockroach
@dparker1201
@ryanbradley
@antbelas
@lesleybanh
@jpparker19
@infernodan10
@perfectcivicseoc
@iimochamanii
@jorflo

The ultimate goal is for our class to earn Steem to invest in Bitcoin and then further invest in different altcoins based on market trends. My name is Brandon Wright; I am the teacher of the class and moderator of the course page. As the 2017 Hernando County Teacher of the Year and recipient of the Governor's Shine Award for Excellence in Education, I look for every opportunity to use authentic learning experiences to help drive student learning. This project evolved from a class discussion about recent news regarding the skyrocketing value of Bitcoin. What better way to understand why this happens then to dive into the community and explore it first hand?! We look forward to the support of the Steemit community as we begin our journey into this growing medium of exchange!

Look for our future posts and we are very excited to join the community!

Wow that's really cool! Will be looking forward to seeing what you guys can share :)

However, I'm curious to hear why you think other altcoins and bitcoins are more lucrative to hold than STEEM? Are you familiar with the upcoming Smart Media Tokens? STEEM will be a platform on which numerous new applications will be built. It's hard to want to support a project if you know their ultimate goal is to dump their rewards and pump other project.

Awesome idea! Glad to see some of the younger crowd getting involved with Steem/Steemit. I hope you’re able to learn a lot about Steem. It’s a great blockchain...much better than that Bitcoin nonsense.

Good luck to you all!

WELL done!! I wish you have lot of success!!! 👏👏👏👏 bravo!

It's a cool project, I'm excited to see where it goes from here

This is such a great project and I’m so happy to be a part of it! 😊

You can edit that in the post itself

Yep I know, I just don't own the account. I've informed the owner of the account so it's up to him to change it.

can't wait to see where this goes as a project. good luck to all the participants!

Best to luck to all of yous guys!

Make sure to keep some in STEEM which is a great investment too
