Title: Bitcoin and Education
Post by: jhayemcue08 on April 13, 2020, 01:58:57 PM
Addressing the future, cryptocurrency such as bitcoin should be taught in schools. This is why I did innovate a basic strategy as my research to used base numbers in cryptographic algorithm.

However, the computer is there to compute the numbers. But still, learners should be able to know the manual computation and how it increase and decrease according to its equivalent value.

In addition, this will make the new evolution of numbers of Mathematics.

I don't know about cryptocurrencies but there are courses related to the blockchain technology available in many universities through out the world.
Cryptocurrency and Blockchain is an advanced topic and hence only it's basics can be really taught in schools.
Once people understand the algorithm of finding a block then computing it with mathematics will encourage students to learn more about it.

Can you share you research with us, i would like to understand your innovative way...

There are a lot of material to teach bitcoin in the school at any level, you could search for it and try to make it better.

Cryptocurrency is really getting more popular nowadays. It is now aligned with education to some countries, and to be more specific, online courses. This has something to do with the increase on the demand for people who has blockchain-related skills in which is somewhat being added to must have competencies by many companies.

However, the computer is there to compute the numbers. But still, learners should be able to know the manual computation and how it increase and decrease according to its equivalent value.

In addition, this will make the new evolution of numbers of Mathematics.
But I just want to share my opinion. I think people should not or do not need to know the manual method of computing the algorithms behind the market value of Bitcoin. The goal of technology is to improve the way of how people live, in its broadest sense, to make our lives easier. I do get the point that people should know be knowledgeable about cryptocurrency and blockchain technology because it somewhat speaks for the 'future' but it is quite sketchy that "this will make the new evolution of numbers in mathematics" . Can you please clear this thing? I would be glad to know more.

There are courses available online related to blockchain and cryptocurrency. The syllabus and course outline of the traditional schools depends on the trend but still they ignore the innovation that bitcoin brings. And the reason behind that because is they are not open to it.

It's likely to be taught by individual courses not by the traditional schools that we know.

Today there are a lot of people trying to make an introduction into the world of cryptocurrency or the bitcoin because they want to share their experience and the techniques on how they can make a lot of earnings with the help of bitcoin. Most of the time in our country they are giving some seminars about related in the blockchain, and how they pay for the tickets and bills they are going without spending any real money, and that is the power of the bitcoin it is quite curious? Yes. It is, and now I also made into the world of bitcoin because of that, and now at the same time, I made investment and trading to make more earning too.

It is good to apply to Economics subjects by knowing the basics about Bitcoin and the technology used by bitcoin.
Maybe at this time only a few schools are implementing a curriculum about Cryptocurrency, Blockchain and bitcoin.

By providing initial education about the future of digital currency technology, students will be able to make a good contribution to their development.

Even now, high school students in France will soon learn about bitcoin because cryptocurrency will be added to the syllabus for Economics and Social Sciences. This will help students how to use cryptocurrency to understand which characteristics.
The application of cryptocurrency lessons will not be too complicated and profound, but only provides an illustration for students to be able to understand the meaning of decentralization in the context of the main financial flows.

I think this would be better if you show your research to us, so we can see if you have a good idea about cryptocurrency. It's true that bitcoin in education will be great, this should be thought to the schools because that is really important especially at the young age of the students to know more about cryptocurrency because for sure in the near future it will be so prominent all over the world, there would be so many countries that will accept a crypto world in their own country.
Actually, there are some schools that already teach about cryptocurrency and that is really good, I think they would become so great country because of what they have done.

I trust very soon it will be imputed in their lectures. There are many other ways that the knowledge around it has been impacted through arithmetic which is needed in trading and conversations, technology sciences which has introduced block chain, even language studies. Because, it takes good composition knowledge to make this posts. As time goes on by further acceptability it will be advancely thought.

We already know several countries employing lectures or classes about Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies especially those countries which are Bitcoin friendly and has deep roots in their economic history. Computing crypto using base numbers isn't bad since I believe most students in universities are familiar with base numbers. Their interest could be furthermore attracted through the internet once Bitcoin is endorsed to them. Since the generation today is really a computer maniac, I believe this can stem possible Bitcoin improvements with regards to its popularity and might as well, the government can employ this in their curriculum.

I don't think that we should include bitcoin or blockchain technology in any basic education curriculum that early, there should be a step by step process that enables them to get all the knowledge as much as they can, we also should consider that they make a a financial education foundation for the the people, for me this should be a needed reform to education system, the bitcoin and blockchain technology should be taught as a specialization if they push it to education. On the other hand, giving people a dose of financial education even the most basic is very helpful in the long run.

who are offering some cryptocurrency subjects in there economics for their own students know the basics of the bitcoin and what is happening on the stock markets
because this cryptocurrency is a good example on what is it.

It will be and I think I've heard it somewhere that there's some education institution that already started teaching it. But the most dominant kind of course are the individuals that we see on course platforms.

It's not that late to teach this to the very schools that we used to study. Meanwhile, there are those courses that everyone can take that wants to study and can study while at home.

I do remember some economics lessons that actually does teach about the history of money, from barter, to cowry shells, to gold standards and yes, even to fiat, so I guess teaching the next step in the evolution of money isn't so far-fetched... although I think they would be teaching about digital money, with crypto still as an alternative among many, if ever. I'm sure Paypal and e-gold have made their appearances, so why not Bitcoin yeah?

Kids at my kid's school all talk about it, but in the curious yet dismissive way they'd talk first about I don't know, the Tiger King. heh

If I can recall correctly, there were few universities around the world offering courses for Blockchain. Although Blockchain isn't typically equal to Bitcoin only, but due to the popularity of using the Blockchain, I think Bitcoin should be covered in curriculum. It might not be the whole technology behind Bitcoin itself, but it should be a nice cover-up.
I don't think that Bitcoin "should be taught", like even the primary levels would learn the basics into it. If there's courses that I could think of teaching cryptographic algorithm, it would be those technological courses like Information Tech and Computer Science.

It depends if the government agency related to education allows the school or universities to include cryptocurrency and blockchain to their course syllabus. Since some government are still not letting the cryptocurrency to enter their economy, the legalization of bitcoin is still on hold.

There are a lot of requirements they need to prove if implementing cryptocurrency and blockchain is really effective in making students to become wiser and to think more critically. This is not a big change in a course outline, you will just add a subject so that they have fundamental knowledge about how bitcoin works. But most importantly, introduce first the advantages and disadvantages of using bitcoin to the community.

Having some prior knowledge about bitcoin is essential so that the economy will be affected, since they say that the youth is the hope of the future, this will be the right time to prove it, that students should help the country to improve its economy.

It's likely to be taught by individual courses not by the traditional schools that we know.

If you're a working student, you can still study about the crypto and bitcoin if you know some online schools or a university where they offer courses related to bitcoin. I know that bitcoin is not that very much known but still it is gradually increasing its supporters and users.

Can we teach bitcoin like money fiat is? I mean if we give a learning about bitcoin through its system like number and etc it will be hard to be learn. And I doubt either that most people will get interest to learn about it. But I'll be agree if we give a learning about bitcoin through the economic directly, like we learn about money fiat like inflanation and deflanation etc. I think will be more liked by most people, other than that if we give a learning about bitcoin in profit side it will be good as well.

IMO, for formal education, I think it will be more emphasized on general knowledge related to blockchain and cryptocurrency, can be included in the curriculum of computer or economic subjects. As for the deeper ability to earn money, it can be obtained through seminars, training, or non-formal education, I think.

Yeah I agree that the blockchain technology is important right now and it may be taught in schools. However, there are some things that must be considered to teach crypto in the school:
1. In what grade it will be taught? In my opinion, it needs a crucial and careful consideration to put this lesson to the curriculum. Of course, it may not be taught in the elementary school. But, it may be available for the specific high school, especially that has correlation to the technology program.
2. Considering the condition of the citizen in the country. Every country has different social condition. Many people in some countries are still left behind of the technology, moreover about the blockchain technology.
3. It will depend on the necessity and also significance of this technology in the country. Actually, adoption of the crypto is very good enough, however, not all countries can accept that.

You bring up a good point "What grade will it be taught".

I think it would make sense at the High School level. At this point you you'll be taught basic economic principles in ECON and then it could branch out from there. If one does not understand how things work pre-bitcoin, you may not see the big picture. I wonder if STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) programs at this level are covering technologies like Blockchain or other decentralized systems. I'm aware of lectures available at the college level, maybe someone could chime in on this subject that had/have their kids in STEM programs.

However in other subjects like economics or other, we can further understand it. Afterall, it is all about it's "blockchain" content and the blocks operated inside. And it's the advancement of technology we are interested to learn here.

Here's some of the universities that teaches blockchain subject/courses;

I think this depends on the school obviously.

Before courses are listed in a school or a college, we all know that these people behind the development of courses should know the popularity and the need of the people that place. Will blockchain technology suits their school if they are in a province being left out in the era of technology? There are a lot of things to consider but it is not that bad to introduce it to students. Blockchain technology is one of innovative technology that should be introduced to students especially those that is related to technology. I do know that some of the schools are introducing Blockchain but not really discussing it, just more of introducing it really.

In my country there are a lot of people getting speech or talk to the schools or universities most of the time their students are relayed into the world of technology and they are getting hint how they can earn more income and profit with the help of crypto also from the previous talk I recently attended he give some stories about us and one of these is the story of getting into an exclusive event or talk and he does not buy any money instead he just transfer his funds or bitcoin and most of the time he got a lot of earnings with the use of it also payment of bitcoin does not require a tax but instead it had a transaction fee for transferring this is why they promote bitcoin too.

Ideally, yes. Unfortunately, we are not the one who make decisions in education system. In fact governments have more power when people are financially uneducated and stuck with the same job for life.

I think that bitcoin lucks the ease of use for ordinary people. And there are not enough educational material in plain words like Bitcoin made simple (https://bitcoins.menu/#bitcoin-made-simple) for beginners. I'm looking forward to the time when the UI will be suitable for everyone, even for old people. Only when mass adoption comes we may hope that bitcoin will be included in education system.

In my own personal opinion, it is only possible for bitcoin to be teach in schools if the government have legalized cryptocurrency in their country because there will be a chance that they will approved to teach cryptocurrency in their educational system.
It can move better from being part of educations once the country itself recognized the used of bitcoin/crypto, it's good to see that there's support coming from the government as more people will be interested especially those young age, if they'll be able to follow this chain and enhance their educations about the possibility and the usages they can bring new sets of ideas and enhance everything for the future.

There's been this big news that France included cryptocurrencies and blockchain into the official school curriculum.

Moreover, some universities offer courses in crypto and blockchain. Just recently I found about a couple of them in my country (one listed in an online profile, another mentioned by a person who claims to know the guy to teaches it). So while slowly, Bitcoin starts to get attention from the educational system, which is definitely a good and necessary thing.

Well, legality in a wider scope is the basis for any university or school to be able to apply the curriculum in the field of cryptocurrency, but in reality the legality that occurs is still uneven and even still lacking in actual use so that making crypto for a curriculum itself will still get trouble. So I just feel that a broader introduction by the government itself is the main thing to do until finally cryptocurrency and blockchain technology can be learned at school.

I do not think we are going to see bitcoin being taught at the basic education level, do governments even teach kids and young people about how their fiat money losses value over time and about how they should save as much money as they can and then buy assets that hold value instead of useless stuff? If the answer is no, then why do we have any expectation that bitcoin is going to be taught at schools and expose the truth to young people? Governments like the way things are at schools and they like to keep people ignorant about how the monetary system really works and I doubt they will teach about bitcoin massively at schools unless bitcoin takes over the economy.

That will be I think the first move to introduce this bitcoin to these innocent young people. Even the government declines this plan, you cannot under estimate the curiosity of millenials especially in online monetary system.

I found this site what you were saying about France. Great job to their country.

Do you notice that these courses use the word "blockchain" and not "Bitcoin".

The university courses I checked out, are misguided at best. They don't distinguish Bitcoin from replicated linked list.

I think educating people about Bitcoin need no requirements in universities instead this can be done by Forum members that is educated about crypto and how Bitcoin works.

there was this account here in forum in the name of Cris or Chris something that helping His People learn about Bitcoin for even free because he Believes in crypto and supports this market continuously things that i think will be very helpful because not all people can afford university courses or even wanted to go in schools just to learn this.
so if we will extend our hands and try to educate our own people in neighborhood ?for sure the crypto will grow even faster .

Blockchain got its own learning progress. Some of the users here learn the basics and fundamentals of blockchain and how it works not in a academy but most of them just taught themselves using the internet.

Why does it need to require such dimploma or anything that proves of your capability on blockchain studies? I think the fair question is does these universities guarantees that if newbies learn they could use it on work or even create something that has an added value on cryptocurrency field?

I have this thought after watching The Imitation Game.
It is more about cryptography and I guess the blockchain is related with that.

Hell, I don't even understand those codes. But some just do. We call them the genius.
I think there is a chance to insert it in students studies but never as directly consuming time.
Maybe used as an example and it will depend on the students if they will open their eyes into broadening their knowledge about bitcoin.

Indeed, bitcoin should be introduced in schools, because the blockchain technology used by bitcoin can be useful for human life.
The earlier you get to know bitcoin the better, because bitcoin can make money too. And blockchain technology can be used in
various sectors, not only the financial sector. Learn cryptocurrency especially bitcoin can make our lives better.

Maybe cryptocurrency can be taught at the high-school or university when someone can think about cryptography because that will need a basic of programming to learn cryptography. And not all people can understand the language because I guess that will be more complicated than the other programming language. The learners should know about computation, but I don't know because I don't understand about programming at all like other people.

Addressing the future, cryptocurrency such as bitcoin should be taught in schools. This is why I did innovate a basic strategy as my research to used base numbers in cryptographic algorithm.

However, the computer is there to compute the numbers. But still, learners should be able to know the manual computation and how it increase and decrease according to its equivalent value.

In addition, this will make the new evolution of numbers of Mathematics.
It shouldn't be a course in it's own, it should be a subject. And moreover there are already lots of online courses where you can learn everything you need to know to be a Blockchain engineer/developer, whatever they are being called. I do go through EdX, Udemy and Coursera and I have seen Blockchain courses there. So anyone that's interested in it can still apply and study and get the certificate.

I can remember that one of my friends studied Economics in school, but after he graduated, he studied Programming online and for the certificate, and now he's working as a programmer. So these online courses are good and you get a job with the certs.

As far as I know, there's a specific topic in our economic subject that discussed basic information regarding with bitcoin. It brings awareness to my fellow students that there's a digital form of cash, which makes them ask different question as if it's possible to use as a payment method for products/services and if it's legal to use. It was discussed to see how different forms of currency can affect the economy of a country and foreign exchange market.

Bitcoin and education is a part of crypto market. without education you can,t success on crypto market. I know that bitcoin is one kinds of learning in crypto market. This bitcoin is absolutely essential to upholding the security of the blockchain. Since each block contains a different hash, it is immediately clear if an individual attempted to change a transaction on a previous block. Others on the network would be alerted to an attempted hash change is learn from education. Bitcoin system are process appears more complex than it actually is. Combining and splitting value refers to the process of splitting a group bitcoin into smaller values. This allows all transactions to be processed in the blockchain market. So the last of speech bitcoin and education are also good.

I've read about many schools that have courses related to blockchain and the concept of cryptocurrency across many country. Virtually everyone who have access to internet knows about cryptocurrency and i must say it's a good thing, the only problem is that they see it as an investment option for making profits rather than a decentralized financial institution and this is where teaching of Blockchain and the concept of cryptocurrency in school have a lot to do in order for the outside world to see the true purpose of this sector. I implore every school to include the teaching of Blockchain into their learning curriculum in order to breed the future that have proper understanding of this industry

I agree with this and my opinion is that the current system of education is bad because it forces people to stay at school up to a certain age.

 People should have the freedom to learn what they want and what they think will be profitable for them.

They should learn the basics of every subject at school to be able to make a choice and see what they might like and what they might be good at. The rest is self learning and research.

Well, I'm not saying to be some schools, I'm emphasizing to be taught in schools. Since you were saying that it's been almost many years passed teaching this bitcoin, but why not all schools are involved to this teachings? If we are making bitcoin to go on progress, then we should let most of new students understand the flow of this from basic upto the level they wanted to. This is investment and we need to outgrow our investment to these young investor.

I think the most important is learning blockchain technology, not cryptocurrencies. They are not backed, they have no as great future as blockchain has. Actually, some prominent universities have blockchain programms so that point is covered.
That is the most important thing about cryptocurrency, the system behind the decentralized network is what makes the cryptocurrency famous for transferred data unalterable making tons of ideas to be applied in the real world, best fit in financial terms. This is also why banks are studying the digitalization process by which some assets could be just be a back and the front end is the digital one. There are already universities that offers a program in line with the blockchain but honestly to get to those universities requires a lot of credentials just like MIT.

But according to the article I read, there are already several universities in the world including the blockchain in the course. This is very

Agree with that. With our technology nowadays, there are a lot of free info waiting to be tap by eager individuals. This forum alone will give you tons of knowledge when it comes to bitcoin and crypto in general ranging from mining, creating a coin/token, understanding blockchain tech and many more. There are even free online courses and it is up to you where do you want to enrol yourself.

In algorithm it is already taught in the both highschool and college level but the cryptocurrency was not be able to taught in that level. What I am trying to say is why we are very afraid to explore new things just like for example cryptocurrency, why we are afraid to do explore those things?

Teaching cryptocurrency in schools is really great idea, for all the universities in different places with a program about cryptocurrency will now be more advance about cryptocurrency which is really good for the future because as we all know cryptocurrency is now being prominent around the world and it is possible that it can be a standard currency for all over the world.

As time goes by, technology becomes so used by many people that's why technology keeps evolving, that is why cryptocurrency can be also more known and more upgraded in the future.

I don't know about cryptocurrencies but there are courses related to the blockchain technology available in many universities through out the world.
Cryptocurrency and Blockchain is an advanced topic and hence only it's basics can be really taught in schools.
Once people understand the algorithm of finding a block then computing it with mathematics will encourage students to learn more about it.
Well said, there are already some courses or program about cryptocurrency thought by some universities in different country in the world. The country will be more advanced and powerful when they include cryptocurrency in their curriculum.

Do you notice that these courses use the word "blockchain" and not "Bitcoin".

The university courses I checked out, are misguided at best. They don't distinguish Bitcoin from replicated linked list.

That's like a biologist not seeing being able to distinguish a rhino from a pebble.
And there are only two explanations for this, the first one is that the course itself is not worth your time since they do not even know the difference in which case you should not try to enroll in such courses as it is just a waste of time, the other possibility is that they are trying to actively deceive people and they are trying to purposely separate the concept of blockchain and bitcoin, and while they are not the same thing the blockchain would not have been created if satoshi did not had something like bitcoin in mind.

But anyway, even though it is never been taught in a school or being part of their curriculum, still we can learn crypto through online research and having in the actual scenario just trading, investing, and even used it as another form of payment. And I think this is the fastest way to learn crypto and how it deserves appreciation that many we're just been ignored.

That would be a great idea to adapt and associate teaching children or those who are still going to school about cryptocurrency for it is indeed belong to a modernized and futuristic progression towards a better tomorrow. It will be good that people will have a basic learning about cryptocurrency to let them better know about cryptocurrency specially for those who are not familiar with it. That idea cam be associated into the academic curriculum for those countries where cryptocurrencies are accepted and have already been adapted. Well, it will be the government's concern to include it in the curriculum concerning the participation of the department of education on putting lessons or subjects related to crypto. Such implementation will only be successful if crypto usage have already been adapted because it will now be in need to have better learning and understanding about it to put into the curriculum. But as of the moment, it is quite impossible to happen for crypto usage has not been fully adapted.

The thing is , it is already being taught in the higher institute of technology and other engineering colleges but weather it should be taught in schools is still a debate.
One can only work through some of the things that are basics but people who actually wanna learn that can just go online and study hard about it .
I do think teaching something in schools for the grades kinda looses its value over time , you do it for the sake of grades but real knowledge can only be attained if you are willing to work on it yourself.

I also think that this should be taught in schools, college to be exact. But since we're still at the beginning, let us wait until it gets further recognition. I can see that in the future, this can be taught in schools, especially blockchain technology. Blockchain is very suitable to be added to the curriculum. Perhaps, a general subject as it is included as a part of innovation and globalization. While cryptocurrency is more likely to be an applied or specialized subject. It can be taught to technology-related courses or even in finance-related since it can be considered as an asset.

This could happen in the future, we just need to wait until it gets accepted by the public.

The surge in cryptocurrency adoption in the world is a strong reason for the implementation of lessons about cryptocurrency in formal education. I have read that this has begun to be applied in France. The basic competence taught is the difference from fiat, its role in supporting traditional finance, and other basic knowledge related to cryptocurrency.
As educators, teachers must always update information and knowledge so that their students get knowledge in accordance with the times. Moreover, cryptocurrency has a broad scope of scientific fields, including economics, mathematics, computers, etc. The teacher should also know this and provide basic knowledge that there are currently alternative currencies worldwide.

This kind of complex subject should be taught in college on specific technology-related courses. I'm opposed to teaching on lower education because some students aren't good and might not be interested in any stuff of technology. We have different learning styles, some aren't good at technology.

But I don't think it's appropriate to do bitcoin as a subject for those courses related to technology. In terms of bitcoin, they can be addressed in economics, since it's also somehow linked to the others, it's not too hard to grasp the sector. When we're talking about blockchain, it's a complex knowledge and a lot of programming skills are needed, but also not necessary. It can be discussed in the category of networks on the course topic of data communication since blockchain is just a kind of network.

This is a very good idea, and I support it 100%.

Yeah, it's better like that. But also the country needs to support people who have studied cryptocurrency and blockchain knowledge such as providing a lot of blockchain-related or cryptocurrency-related jobs.

So there will be more motivation for people who want to learn it and also they won't waste their time.

But for high school where almost all the lessons are general knowledge, it would be better if the cryptocurrency and blockchain lessons only become extracurricular or additional lessons where students can have the choice to join or not.

Also it is worth to wonder if it is even worth to consider learning something like that at a school, bitcoin was born out of the effort of an individual just trying to create something for himself, why wait until something is taught in schools in order to learn it? Schools are fine if you want to learn things that do not change, like history, but when you are trying to learn something related to technology most of the time the knowledge you can get there is outdated, it is better to learn this on your own for free on the Internet.

Bitcoin right now is really good if it is included in the school system but what makes me interested in this is the system of bitcoin, which is blockchain, because in my opinion blockchain must indeed be in subjects for future deepening
I still have a doubt if school would allow cryptocurrency topic/subject in their curriculum since it is very volatile in terms of price movements. Perhaps they would allow some but not necessarily gonna apply it for the subject since it's a risky investment if someone falls for it without giving the full knowledge about of the market movements. But in terms of blockchain i guess school might allow that since it is part of the new technology.

Early last year I presume, a small boy of 11 years old made a book about bitcoin: https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.cnbc.com/amp/2018/02/25/11-year-old-andrew-courey-wrote-a-book-on-bitcoin.html Which in other hand I believe people around the globe are getting familiar in crypto-currency. What we should face now its the younger generation coming, just like the little boy who wrote about bitcoin by giving them this opportunity I believe learning or knowing about cryptocurrency will go a long way.
Yeah right, learning about this industry will proceed and more and more people will engaged themselves to learn about crypto, with the example you provide as even a your boy creates his book to attract more your people around and start to learn more about this market.  Exposures will be there
as we've seen the after effects of all those available information around the internet.

56 percent of the world’s top 50 universities now offer at least one course on crypto or blockchain — up from 42 percent in 2018

Twice as many students report having taken a crypto or blockchain course than they did in 2018

Nearly 70 percent of crypto and blockchain classes are in departments outside of computer science, including law, the humanities, and economics

I still have a doubt if school would allow cryptocurrency topic/subject in their curriculum since it is very volatile in terms of price movements. Perhaps they would allow some but not necessarily gonna apply it for the subject since it's a risky investment if someone falls for it without giving the full knowledge about of the market movements. But in terms of blockchain i guess school might allow that since it is part of the new technology.
hehe sorry, I mean that too, the blockchain technology is included in the school curriculum because now the blockchain technology is very attention-grabbing and so it is very appropriate to be a school learning

It's actually crypto that's very attention grabbing and not really blockchain technology. People are interested when you say $1 to $1000 in a few years. Or $1000 to $20k in one year for Bitcoin.

But tell them about sha-256 and cryptography and they just say, boring!

Never mind talking about the specifics of cryptography, most regular users like me wouldn't know how to get into it either (much as we don't know beyond http being the protocol for most of what we browse).

But you're absolutely right. Cryptocurrency's speculative potential is what grabs attention. People aren't as interested in sovereign money, deflationary models, all the stuff they should be teaching about Bitcoin in an economics class.

But maybe that's precisely why these subjects need to be taught in class so kids grow up wanting to use Bitcoin correctly.

I would agree but certainly blockchain technology can be very useful if students learn it early or at least some background as to how this technology works. I can still recall during my HS days, we have elective courses and computer are one of them, it was early, back then computers are not what it is used to be.

So in essence, maybe students would have a have a good start with crypto/blockchain technology. And maybe in the future, this kind of education will become handy to them, not just the investment side of it, but the technology as well.

However, the computer is there to compute the numbers. But still, learners should be able to know the manual computation and how it increase and decrease according to its equivalent value.

In addition, this will make the new evolution of numbers of Mathematics.
I disagree with making bitcoin and investing a subject. because in my experience, I don't see bitcoin with anything to learn. If we want to trade well in the crypto market, we should learn about the psychology of manipulators. then our predictions can be more true and make more money. And if you want to learn about blockchain, yes that's good if it can help the economy run faster.

I opened a similar topic some months ago, about this argument since I believe that anyone should receive education in blockchain and related technologies!
Let's see what happens in the next months/years, meanwhile some free courses are already offered in certain countries 8) !

Blockchain and related technologies are the Future. Libra is just another confirmation for that theory (if needed), but for sure the biggest one we have ever seen in these days.

I think that Governments of developed Nations MUST add a blockchain course to the basic education of any Citizen... starting from elementary schools, and why not, with some basics concept also in nursery.

A young brain in it's primordial state is the base for any further development. Plus everyone should have this education, like an essential human right.

What do you think?

But i believe that sooner it will be open in most universities or even in secondary highschool as we are now getting closer to Computer world when everything relies in computer and man power only requires in limited occasions.

For bitcoin to be included in the school course curriculum, it needs to be first made legal by the countries. How can you include anything in the course which is not legal in most of the countries.  In my country, some people are offering courses on blockchain or crypto trading but that is being done at a personal or private level.

However, I disagree on the suggestion of making it as a subject in highschool because it was not essential for the youngsters. Don't get me wrong, I am not against this. What I'm just telling is that there's no need to change the curriculum significantly before learning this. Besides, we all don't need to become bitcoin analysts in the future; as long as we know its basic concept then we can already adopt it for good :).

It could be a topic only, agree to it, but not a full subject. It's not necessary to be taught since you just need the basics if you want to learn about using cryptocurrency. Bitcoin is already an application in programming so definitely, it should be taught under courses with programming.

Bitcoin is very complex especially the blockchain but you will understand the system if you have a background and foundation on how to create it.

Look what I did in here --- Trying a little experiment using a programming language. (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5174526.0)
The only background that I have is basic programming.

Educating students about cryptocurrency can be divided into various fields, economics with material fluctuations, mathematics and physics on blockchain algorithms. I am of the view that the material on cryptocurrency and blockchain is somewhat complex, we can take the basics and become material that is easy, simple and useful especially if accompanied by good visualization of animation. Then the delivery method is chosen so that it can adjust the audience for the education. Education would be better to choose the name cryptocurrency or digital currency because it is general and I'm sure it's easier to understand.

Teaching crypto in general to the students is a good move but isn't necessary or worse they will not put it in the curriculum.

First of all, most of the teachers aren't teaching about financial literacy (or maybe its just here in our country) so I think that the teachers will have a hard time teaching Bitcoin to the students. I see this very helpful but I doubt that they will put it in the curriculum or at least the students will be interested about this. Maybe there are some who are but most will not. There are some schools who are teaching blockchain or crypto already and that is a good move. I'm not expecting too much with this but if this will be added then good :).

It might be impossible to include it in the curriculum right now, however I still believe some school may conduct workshops and seminars about the blockchain technology, and of course bitcoin will be a talk about it too. I think in my country it will be possible, and some schools are even conducting it even before the pandemic. It will be helpful especially to the courses that talks about computers, technology, and etc.

Also agree with you about financial literacy, it will be good to have it as a subject in schools.

Learning some kind of mathematics about bitcoin is I think too advanced unless your planning to be kind of analyst, you just need basic knowledge about bitcoin and teach it in schools so that a lot of people could potentially use bitcoin and at the same time expose to it.

In case of bitcoin, not only can we talk about it, we definitely should talk. Bitcoin is a phenomen of our days, it consists of several disciplines and in order to fully comrehend the technology and philosophy behind bitcoin, we should learn all of them. History of money, keynesian and austrian model, history of banking, distributed decentralized systems, cryptography, mathematics, physics, biology and many other diclsciplines should be taught to students in order for them to start understanding the whole picture of what bitcoin brings into the world.

Yup,  it doesn't necessarily need that a certain country should adopt btc and blochain tech first before students and other people can learn it. We can learn it through seminars and workshops. I just hope that the seminars will be about the btc, blockchain tech, history, crypto and not about how one will get rich in these industry. It should be about the technology, not something that will look like an unreal seminar.

And for a country to adopt btc, don't we need people to actually use it? and for people to use it, they should learn what is it. We should start by making people know what it is, start by teaching them. Not the other way around. It may not be accepted as a regular subject in school, but there are tons of ways on how it can be taught.

Advanced universities are putting the study of the blockchain technology scheme into the curriculum, and all educational institutions that want to produce in-demand specialists should be levelled off to do so.

Right now, even if a decade has passed since the creation of cryptocurrency, many people still don't know what it is and how it works. Not many universities and financial institutions have interest of knowing what it is and even not interested in knowing. I think basics should be thought at computer classes possibly starting in high school, but to make it interesting this should be taught in history of currency portion of history or basic science history classes. Then they can try not with bitcoin but with another cryptocurrency that can be bought very cheap so that they can just make fun tests like sending coins to different addresses and doing wallets and such.

Your school not educate with bitcoin and haven't bitcoin as subject in your school, I think in university still not have subject bitcoin but you can learn how bitcoin is it when start trading and earn money with bitcoin or altcoin, I think many people have know with bitcoin and try how to get much profit with bitcoin trading and investing.

In today's age of technology, it is important to learn about Bitcoin,
In many countries, bitcoin education is being approved in schools and colleges so that everyone can learn bitcoin. I think of this Bitcoin Forum as an educational institution because there is so much to learn and learn from.

Previously one of our topics in school is the use of the different algorithms and different methods of sorting method which makes you help you.

Also one of our subjects is discrete mathematics which is part of the world of crypto too.

 [LEARN] LOGIC GATES and chance to earn merit (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5263519.msg54838924#msg54838924) which one of our members
@pooya87 suggests with the use of the bitwise you can use in cryptography.

i think it would be better if these operations are referred to as bitwise operations (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bitwise_operation) since that is what they are called in programming and cryptography.
additionally there are only 4 main operations: AND(&), OR(|), XOR(^), NOT (~ or unary operation). others such as XNOR are the combination of these operations:
Code:
NAND=NOT(AND) -> ~(A & B)
NOR =NOT(OR)  -> ~(A | B)
XNOR=NOT(XOR) -> ~(A ^ B)

this is very important for the development of Cryptocurrency and blockchain technology, and maybe in the coming years this will become a major part of education,
we cannot fight human technology which is getting faster and developing, because crypto and blockchain will become part of our daily lives and it must be taught in school because it really helps our children and grandchildren to better understand what future technology is.

Addressing the future, cryptocurrency such as bitcoin should be taught in schools. This is why I did innovate a basic strategy as my research to used base numbers in cryptographic algorithm.

However, the computer is there to compute the numbers. But still, learners should be able to know the manual computation and how it increase and decrease according to its equivalent value.

In addition, this will make the new evolution of numbers of Mathematics.
That depends on what you’re talking about, but you don’t see schools teaching students how to make use of bank apps or PayPal, somethings are not really necessary to be taught. If you’re talking about areas like what influences the price of cryptocurrencies and things like that, well cryptocurrency is still similar to other sectors in economics, it’s always about the demand and supply, cryptocurrency is built on trust.

But, there are already things that are being taught in schools that are related to Blockchain and cryptocurrency, schools will only teach the things that they are meant to teach you and you’re going to learn the rest by yourself, and that’s just it.

This will be a great strategy to be use by someone in crypto space. And it will help the learners to understand more the way on how to compute manually and not just rely on the computer. I think it should also be taught in school as advance learning of every students regarding the proper use of bitcoin and other cryptocurrency ,so that it will be easy for them to adopt a blockchain technology in the future especially if government will accept bitcoin and cryptocurrency as part of the economy.

Other institutes especially around Europe are now having this educational system. If we are looking for that time, it is already happening starting this cashless transaction system due to global crisis happening this year.

I think it is better to teach about blockchain technology than to focus directly on cryptocurrencies, because blockchain technology can be used in various fields even though it is not as interesting as discussing crypto currencies  ;D. Btw I also agree with the OP idea
theres a seperate discussion for blockchain and theres also for cryptos because both of them are not easy . cryptos only looks easy because we people tend to look in its outside appearance but we dont know if how they are created or whats inside them . blockchain looks so hard and boring because everyone else is foccusing on crypto due to the fact that crypto is the one that we mainly use but if we will only learn blockchain too we can get many benefits .

I believe that after a while crypto will become commonplace for people. In this case, such a discipline may actually appear in colleges.

Espcecially concerning blockchain technology and tokenomics. Though, I see this to be more on computer science courses since most of the students will need prerequisites for blockchain such as programming, web development, cryptography and more.

But it will not be limited since there's always tons of course available for a student to self learn about bitcoin and cryptocurrency.

Cryptocurrency should be in the field of finance while blockchain is in the field of technology. Both topics are very hard and there's a lot of you need to know before learning those topics. You need the foundation to understand those definitions like basic and advanced programming.

Blockchain isn't boring, actually, it's one of the topics that is being used in project study because blockchain technology can be applied to any various fields. While cryptocurrency, it's not really easy, the whole economics will fully explain how does it works and add blockchain learning.

Cryptocurrency or bitcoin subjects have been around for a long time in several universities including where I live, and over time, bitcoin or Cryptoccurrency education continues to develop to grow bitcoin users to learn and understand how bitcoin or cryptoccurrency works in the technology world.
However, it must be more developed in cities or remote areas in order to understand and be involved in bitcoin and also must be supported at least by smartphone technology devices and networks that support it so that theory and practice can be obtained.

Imagine the global effect in businesses, and daily lifestyle of individual if this system has been approved by all. The best move for foundation is in education. No more fiat needed to be handle, payments are all paid intangible. Government nowadays are approving these cryptocurrencies. Soon, bitcoin will be taught in all schools.

There are courses available online related to blockchain and cryptocurrency. The syllabus and course outline of the traditional schools depends on the trend but still they ignore the innovation that bitcoin brings. And the reason behind that because is they are not open to it.

It's likely to be taught by individual courses not by the traditional schools that we know.

 Same thoughts for this one. In the last bubble, I remember there is also an ICO that is about education, there are lessons in their site that you can try and learn from it. I don't see the adaptation of crypto currency in the traditional way of teaching because even teachers need first to know what they are going to educate their students. If they don't know about it that much, then it will just fail. There are lots of lessons and videos in the internet and they can study it there. Let's say the basics can be thought in the traditional way then if the one who studies it gets more curious, then it his time to study it more in the internet.

As bitcoin is becoming the most accepted currency in the world and many countries apply laws to Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies, education will automatically know to adjust so that people understand Bitcoin more.
Not everyone who uses money understands its value and where it comes from. Bitcoin, too, is more than a currency. Inside it, the technology and convenience of bitcoin are undisputed.
Currently, developed countries have education programs related to bitcoin. I believe that in the future the world will be more popular than the educational model of Bitcoin, blockchain, and cryptocurrency.

Experience will teach us how to handle crypto. All of us started from scratch as well. We need to learn in our own time. This is not an overnight task. But lucky for the new generation, a lot of schools or universities are offering courses related to bitcoin or blockchain technology. There are also free online courses available, and it is up to you if you want deeper understanding with this technology. But I can say, we are living in an era that we can basically learn new things on our own if we want to.

But the thing is not every country is very known about the existence of bitcoin or crypto currency and if they heard about it, they don't have an idea of what it is, so basically maybe the first step is that the big influencer of a certain country will spread the info's about crypto and state what it can do to the lives of many people and then creating a course or subject about will be easily approved because they the majority of the population of the country is interested in it. In short influence comes first.

You are right. They have started to understand the advantages of blockchain technology and they know that the benefits are true. I found an article that Forty-two percent of the world's top fifty universities - as ranked by US News and World Report - now offer at least one course on blockchain or cryptocurrency. Even though this is old data, I think the numbers are steadily increasing.

Bitcoin in schools isn't a bad idea. IT teachers could try to inform the students about the decentralised technology. I bet that there will be few pupils that will be very interested. Although, this can only happen to countries that would allow it. For example, countries where bitcoin is illegal get off the list.

If such things could be taught in schools, like "value your privacy", or "wake up your money is getting inflated!" would help the next generation a lot in their way of thinking. The problem is that most schools are ruled by government and I don't think that government would allow teachers teach about going against the government. Isn't it funny?  :D

i like these . these can be good title for a text book in schools if the subject is cryptos  . there are private schools and i think those arent relying on the governments because they are private anyway  ? not really familiar tho because i dont enrolled on private schools before but only in public and im verry familiar that public schools do have connections with the government  .

@op cryptos are a part of the computer  . if computer courses are not done manually then why not in cryptos  ? and is that even possible to calculate them without using a computer ? if it is then thats surely a headache and that takes time to memorize the formula's but in the end , people that learn it are still gonna apply it in the computer .

Or perhaps it would be much better if they will create a course regards with it in which they did already I think but I'm not so sure where though. Teaching crypto shouldn't be limited to the student who studies at Finance but rather must be taught to everyone because if this will be a future currency much better if everyone will be literate regards to it. As much as possible it should be taught on the adult as well.

That is why it will only work if they would center blockchain technology, cause this technology is already doing something great in other industries. It is now being used even in universities, I've read about the distribution of diploma and something like that. College students, specially those who are into the field of IT will be hired by a company if they know something about blockchain, I think in the future, blockchain will be use in any industry.

I just felt like we've been pushing students to be involve in bitcoin if we are trying to teach them about it. Bitcoin will always be a part of learning blockchain technology so it will be touched, so if a student get interested in bitcoin, then its time for him to understand and get into it by himself.

I don’t think it’s necessary to teach Bitcoin together with mathematical details at school or university. It is enough to correctly convey the idea and purpose of creating bitcoin to students. And those who want to delve into the technical specifications can take additional lessons.
There was also a topic here recently about a guy who wrote or was about to write a scientific work about Bitcoin. In my opinion, this is also a great idea to popularize the technology.
