Thank you @andrianna

I was hoping for more visibility for STUDENTS before the application deadline this Friday. I wish I was given this FREE opportunity to rub shoulders with the BIG leagues when I was younger.

I have always been impressed with how much MIT is doing to further the understanding and use of Digital Currency. I have been following the MIT Bitcoin club for quite some time

I can't think of many other Fine Institutions that would be a better fit than MIT, so yes I am impressed too. Do you remember when BTC was around $300.00 USD in November of 2014?

I sure do, its amazing how resilient this technology is.

It's BITCOIN!!! :)

Bitcoin will do what Bitcoin does NO matter what! :))

That $100.00 of Free Bitcoin in 2014 is NOW worth $400.00 today in 2017. :)))
