Thank you so much for doing this and posting it online. I have learned a tremendous amount from your coursera course.

Whilst I appreciate that you are not seeking to teach the details of specific currencies, could you use some of the newer currencies to teach by example?

For example, could you discuss some of the concepts detailed in several of the white papers (and the legitimacy thereof) such as IOTA's tangle or some of the features of the new coins built on ethereum or the utilisation of XRP by banks?

Could you discuss future possibilities such as decentralized exchanges?

Thank you again.
