I don't belong to European countries which is why i can't refer you the best one. You can search it on google and it will definitely show you your desired University.

I think there is a university in the United Kingdom called University of Cumbria and B9 Lab Academy offering crypto related courses(but I don't know if they got a Masters program in cryptocurrency. You can check out their website to know if they offer Master program in cryptocurrency or not. If you can afford to go to Brazil, I strongly suggest that you check out this school mentioned in this article (https://news.bitcoin.com/brazilian-university-launches-cryptocurrency-masters-programme/).

This is the only one I've found, in Brazil:

One question though: why? There are free online courses that cover a lot of ground (Coursera comes to mind), and there are resources all over the internet that are likely enough for you to be able to learn what you need to learn. I guess it does make sense if you want to go purely from an academic perspective though.

You should check out what's being offered at Coursera, they provide access to courses or specializations (4-5 course series) from a wide selection of accredited Universities. Often their courses are offered for FREE.

Here's a link to their Cryptocurrency offerings: https://www.coursera.org/courses?languages=en&query=cryptocurrency&userQuery=cryptocurrency (https://www.coursera.org/courses?languages=en&query=cryptocurrency&userQuery=cryptocurrency)

Here's a link to a course offered by Princeton University: https://www.coursera.org/learn/cryptocurrency (https://www.coursera.org/learn/cryptocurrency)

Let's be honest...to earn a Master's in cryptocurrency, you just need to create and launch your own!

I found this article. https://www.trustnodes.com/2017/06/09/best-universities-study-blockchain-technology

If you want a qualification then the master programme is one of the best options. And there are many reputed professional qualifications also, Certified Blockchain expert is one professional certification that you can enter.

If you looking for a knowledge, then the internet is the best place learn everything(most of the time for free). You can get updated new very faster than another medium through the internet.
I could find enough facts on blockchain development side with very details technical level.

Actually there is no course only focusing on the crypto currency and block chain technology. But they are included with some other courses. So if you want to do course on that then you can go for business technology course and IT related course. You can go for online course on the related topic also.

I am actually surprised with the amount of various suggestions I have seen for academic research which has been something I have always have an eye for and there is one that I have bookmarked to pursue even with scholarship in Queensland University of Technology Australia. A master of philosophy with topic focusing on Blockchain technology and its implications for accounting.
https://www.qut.edu.au/study/fees-and-scholarships/scholarships/school-of-accountancy-accelerate-scholarship.

This is all a further testament that the interest in blockchain is increasing and I see the various field of study coming out to carry out research on its application to theirs rather limiting it alone to the world of business.

Personally I would contact Chris Coney of Cryptoversity.com and ask him. He will point you in the right direction.

In the world of Blockchain, a "qualification" from a University should be the last reason you want to take a University course to learn about the technology. No one cares if someone has a degree major in Blockchain. Everyone knows that he Universities are behind the learning curve that exists by working for a blockchain based company or building your own blockchain or cryptocurrency.

The best education is found by the experience of building your own. If you're seeking a degree to work "in Blockchain" you're choosing a slower (and very expensive) path to success.

That might be true, and honestly it's probably better to go the computer scientist route or another course relating to IT if you are only interested in implementing/coding a Blockchain as these courses will broaden your career prospects. Although, a few years from now when Blockchains are introduced in several fields (hopefully) knowledge about the Blockchain may be well sought after.
