Princeton, MIT, Stanford...when the best schools in the US are teaching Bitcoin and cryptocurrency it doesn't matter what the Government has to say about it. The Project is legit, the ecosystem is built, the benefits to society are clear, and the need for education is here and being met.
This is really, really fantastic news.
Here's a thread on the announcement from Stanford:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1160671.0Exactly this! Sooner than later, everybody will start paying attention. This is really an awesome news. I don't know how I have missed this thread and an announcement, but this move by these schools just shows how legit we are and what are true possibilities of the Bitcoin and crypto in general.
Man, I wish they were teaching these courses when I was in the school in states. This would be the most interesting class by far and I would have a straight A without even doing any work!
