By the way Kris, this is pretty good at explaining the mining process. However, it may not be good for general public use, as most people aren't interested in mining. Were you thinking of using it to show people how transactions are secured and added to the public ledger?
Would be nice if it included how transactions are added a bit better.
Bob sign's a transaction with his private key, then it can be confirmed that is came from Bob via the public key, and so on.
It was at first hard for me to comprehend how crypto worked. For me to understand something, I need to know the how's and the why's. I thought this image I came across helped explain a small part of the how.
I have thought about the effectiveness of print to help bring awareness to digital currency. I'm not sure how it would be received. I agree with you that this particular picture probably wouldn't be a good candidate for a marketing tool, but maybe in the future in every 6th grade classroom, somemething like this will replace the poster of the kitten dangling on a branch saying "hang in there".
