Most people have heard about Bitcoin, but they may not understand how it works. Essentially, Bitcoin relies on encryption and blockchain technology. Since these two concepts are relatively complicated, people can learn about these technologies by playing a collectible game called CryptoKitties.

The idea is to buy a kitty and then breed it with others. In the process of collecting cats, users learn how blockchain technology works. It’s a fun way to learn about complicated technology without getting lost in complex details and lingo.

So the next time you have trouble explaining something, try putting it in terms of cats. Everyone understands cats (although not their behavior), so perhaps cats can help improve education around the world for a variety of topics.
