When brainstorming possible game formats to help explain blockchain to people I came up with the idea of a blockchain LARP.

Larping

I thought actually physically acting out the mechanics of the technology would make it real and more understandable. Additionally I thought it may be fun to have friends running around looking for a stapler that represents the necessary nonce for the new block.

Below are the initial steps I had in mind. I’m excited to test it and see how people react to it. Get some feedback and iterate.
