Chicagoland ZECsy Workshop: Cryptocurrency for Providers
(This page is not an attendance listing; see below for how to RSVP.)
Cryptocurrency gets a bad rap and, in many situations, it’s deserved. Most of the “crypto” sector is just not relevant, not helpful, and not intended for us as online or especially in-person adult industry workers.
But there is a sliver of really powerful stuff in there, and it can be a useful and secure tool for providers, both with clients and with services used to support business activities.
Go from 0 to 60—or 69, as the case may be—with cryptocurrency for your business, and in 2 hours or less!
Violet "Vi" Rollergirl is a subject matter expert on cryptocurrency and operational security (OpSec) for providers in our industry. You may follow Violet on her socials or have read any of her resource guides for providers (and clients).
ZECsy is a grant-funded outreach, education, and advocacy team co-founded by Violet focusing on all things crypto, and we've been putting together an event for providers with Violet to get us in the know!
This event:
is FREE. Donations are welcome but totally optional.
welcomes all verified providers. No matter your client base, time in the industry, level of tech savvy—we'd love to have you and share!
will gift participants with a small amount of Zcash (ZEC) to use for whatever purchases they would like to make.
offers refreshments because learning is hard work!
What you'll learn
Foundations of crypto: what it is (including terminology), how it works, differences between currencies, and why cryptocurrencies can be preferable to other payment methods in our line of work
Secure workflow: transferring money between crypto/non-crypto accounts, staying private and/or anonymous, etc.
Tax considerations
Strategies for educating clients and helping them to adopt crypto
Q&A, including hands-on help. Bring your crypto (and general security) questions!
Come prepared after a full night's rest and ready to learn. Additionally, bring your phone (either your work or personal one, or both) so that you can participate in the hands-on demos and receive your Zcash gift.
