a major advancement for the advancement bitcoin
i hope in my country can accept bitcoin schools from elementary

[eternalgloom]

This initself is not all that interesting, for me at least , because it's in India and probably won't really catch on in the rest of the world.

But I could see potential for it, for example in universities who are willing to do courses with Bitcoin/cryptocurrency as a subject.
It would make sense for them to also accept tuition in Bitcoin, so it could be used during those classes.

The school is very cool, maybe satoshi Nakamoto jgua be there, be one of the teachers there. Well, I am also very confident that the teachers there are very expert hunters bitcoin, if the school is in my country, maybe I'll send my child to the school, because it may be the great school

[marleybobthedog]

Wow awesome. It's make me happy when I hear positive news about bitcoin because i love it. Well it's beginning of a new era in India too and that too in IT park of the nation. I think development is coming soon in India too

[jak3]

very good , is necessary to education since early to child ..
because bitcoin is future money

[altcoinnxt]

Great interesting! It is actually very nice that even schools starts to accept them, at this moment there are no schools in my country that accepts bitcoins, but i hope this will change in future

[Xester]

In my country there were also some schools who currently are accepting bitcoin as payment but i wasn't really sure if they directly accepts bitcoin because i only saw it on the online wallet that i've been using even some bills like electricity this certain online wallet can somehow provide which is a good thing.

Its pretty cool if some school accepts bitcoins as tuitiin fee, misceleneous fee and etc.  Many students can be able to attend school if they do that.. why? Bevause if you are dedicated in earning bitcoins, there's  a lot of ways to earn bitcoins. They can collect satoshi. I know that collecting was not enough to sustain educational needs but at least it can help to at least for a school supplies.

One day, everything can be paid for with Bitcoins or any other cryptocurrency. Paper money will be obsolete in the future hence we must move to another medium of payment, which will be electronic currency.

You are talking  about  coins.ph  wallet   hence they  do really accept  bitcoins as a  payment   for tuition fees. I dont  really  know  on what would be the process  hence i  dont intend  to  use it. Its either  bitcoins are  directly sent to them/school  or  on  the  wallet  provider and they are the  ones  who would process because  as  far as i know they  need  5 days to confirm thats such transaction.

Well I hope so too, I'm looking forward to the future where bitcoin is widely accepted not just in a small number of schools like right now but it's good to hear that a school has started using bitcoin. This is one of the very first steps of bitcoin to reach out to the world and spread the awareness to people.

That actually makes a lot of sense, there is no University offering a course in it and there actually needs a course. There is to much confusion regarding Bitcoin. But I feel this is a positive start, and especially if you are reading news btc is selling at a high premium in India so looks like India is racing ahead with Bitcoin.

I don't think that schools here in my country will be accepting btc as a mode of payment specially the tuition. Maybe a big plan if government will do a program in order to adapt this kind of currency which is the crypto currency. This is the new and modern way of introducing to people how money works in different ways, however it do educate students and even teaches students to do jobs online specialy in forum board postings if they do have knowledge of bitcoin in the future.

Well, I guess India is really serious about considering Bitcoin as an alternative to the state-run currency. Surprising that they already have a school accepting it; I would have expected for it to be a lot more commonplace throughout India society before they would really do anything as ambitious as this.

This can't be related to the larger Indian banknotes being taken out of circulation, right?

This is a good move and I think that other schools, universities should make this decision and start accepting bitcoin instead of cash /fiat only. If I had such a chance to pay in bitcoin I would feel like a boss and people will look at me what am I doing lol.

[jabaguru]

Even if I had the opportunity to pay school with btcs I wouldn't. You will waste a lot of btcs paying the school, next 2 or 3 months, the btc price can increase a lot and all of them went to the school. They made all the profit and you just lost your coins.

It's not time to spend a lot of them, at least I wouldn't do that.

[SourThunder]

Wow even school now accept bitcoin now. I hope my school accepts also bitcoin as payments .
Bitcoin is for the whole world . what if the bitcoin is the money for the whole world?

That's always great to hear new development, the progress will surely continue because a lot of people already believe in bitcoin and definitely they also want to use this a way way of marketing more students to enroll since the payment is easy. I wish also I can see another industry starts to accept bitcoin now.

The management might have researched much about the acceptance of bitcoin into their administration and finally started, because with bitcoin one who is gonna lay the first stone of acceptance surely gets profited in a short. Same as bitcoin early adopters who were successful now.
