@saylor Do you think social media can impact crypto negatively by the spread of misinformation from unverified accounts sharing financial info?
Alternatively, do you think social media could be a good source of learning about crypto, assuming it's from reputable sources?
@VitalikButerin What are your thoughts on how social media can impact crypto prices, both positively and negatively?

Throughout the first 3 weeks of EM203, I have learned about the different ways people learn. Reflecting on these methods, I will be approaching learning new tasks conscious of the different ways people learn until I find my own most efficient method! #Em203robin
@EM203MaxMlyn Hey Max, I definitely agree too! For teaching, there's no such thing as a one-size-fits-all, so knowing the different theories can help the teachers adapt to the students instead of the other way around.
@EM203Ecarvalho Hey Emily, I've enjoyed it too - learning about different ways how we learn can definitely help us in our other courses (and the sudoku was fun too!)
@EM203ehirsch Hey Emma, I agree! I think moving forwards, learning is going to use more and more technology as time goes on to help make it more immersive and efficient.
