This high school in New Jersey is already teaching its students about cryptocurrencies.

This is encouraging, but I'm only fully supportive if the cryptocurrency talk is part of a larger discussion on personal finance education. Financial education is far more important to the entire population. And cryptocurrency plays a role in that education, but only if people know the fundamentals of responsible personal finance.

I was surprised by how many people responded that high school is too early to expose students to cryptocurrency. I think they should know about its existence for sure, though possibly with due cautions that there is much more for them to learn. I totally agree with the above point that any education about cryptocurrencies should be part of a larger discussion on responsible personal finance. I don't think children are adequately taught about personal finance in schools or anywhere else. Adults aren't adequately taught about these things either. That's why so many of us are now under crushing debt.

In my opinion this is the best idea that it should teach in high school, so that they will know and to learn about cryptocurrency in their young age. Even if its too early for them, nothing wrong with that the important is they have already idea about crypto. This idea will encourage also to other schools to teach and being part in their education in high school.

It is a welcome/good idea teaching BTC in colleges/universities but a little bit too early for high school. If I was taught about such crypto during my days, I would've probably been a drop out because no other course will get my attention except Bitcoin...

I think we should tell our children about blockhain,not about cryptocurrency. Why? Because it's more useful for people technology.It's technology of the future.

Teaching crypto to high school students can boost awareness to the students about crypto. This could be a great help for them to learn in school rather than in other groups that they might get scam at their young age. I couldn't expect from them to focus on here but somehow they have already the idea about crypto.

This is so cool. How not to be proud to humans when you see something like this Smiley
I think it's not to early for high school. Kids already talk about it, teachers just need to point them to right way.

Good news to stimulate bitcoin price to rise. Student may not out lagging behind the time. They should now what is going on in the world. There is also a university that open courses about bitcoin and the effect of bitcoin for the world economy.

If this happen then this can increase the marketcap of bitcoin. In the same time, price of bitcoin will automatically increase too.
I dont really agree if high school student learn about this bitcoin because its risk if student dont have income source. I hope we can teach them when they are in university

For me, if this will happen that cryptocurrency education will be teach in high school students,they will know the good thing that cryptocurrency brings to many people.And at the same time they will try or they have a possibilities that they can have a source of income even if they are just a student.Cryptocurrency in high school is a good thing for many people.

It's good to know that topics about cryptocurrencies are being taught in high school now. This will prepare them in case they want to invest in the future. It is true that children is the future of the world.

This is very welcoming news indeed. This is similar to computer sciences being offered to high school in the latter part of 90's. I remember when I was still in high school back in the days, there was one elective class, all about computers. I'm happy that I took that class because it open up me pursuing a Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science later. My point is, it can influence the young because it will teach them at least the basics and they can continue in its path later in College if they have the passion about it specially blockchain and cryptography.

I think it's not to early for high school. Kids already talk about it, teachers just need to point them to right way.

The key here is that teachers need to point them in the right way. I think if it's done right, teachers can pass on knowledge of cryptocurrencies in the context of the various cautions that should be in place for investing it. Otherwise, it is likely kids will learn a partial picture elsewhere and might be more vulnerable to scams. Of course, parents can and should be instrumental teachers to their children about this (if they know).

Very nice.. at that stage they can learn more about crypto, at the same time they can help themeselves to finished thier study while applying what they learn.. and after a few years from now they are more knowledgeable, so they can develop a new and better digital currency for the future and help our economy, and orher countries too..

the school of millionaire i guess Cheesy

I think it's good to teach at college all about cryptocurrencies it can be help them in the project and other financial needed in school. The high school student they should enjoy their life as a kid and don't think about money because it's to early to them join at cryptocurrencies. What they will not go to the college level because of the cryptocurrency is teach at high school level. I'm not disagree the idea of teaching to the student but it's happen to my friend his brother decide not going in college level because he want to be a millionaire. He quit his dream and change to become millionaire and become a hard headed kid for now. So I'm favor that they will teach at college level. It's my own opinion only.

This is a good news. High schoolers can now learn about cryptos at their early stage of their lives. Just don't pressure them to totally learn all about it. I think basic knowledge is a step forward.

Good news to stimulate bitcoin prices to go up. I think it's too early for high school students but it's a great time for college students, but overall it's great for community crypto.There are also universities that open courses on bitcoin and bitcoin effects for the world economy.

This is a very good thing because everyone deserves to know Cryptocurrency. There is no age limit for learning about Cryptocurrency, but the time should be balanced with their general education. I think the age of high school kids is enough to learn to invest.

The advantage of this cryptocurrency education in high school is having the early knowledge in many different aspects of cryptocurrencies, on how the virtual currency work, the high risk it carries in investment and some basic guidance in investing.
The disadvantages are varied like when the student got addicted to cryptocurrency and this might affect his studies eventualy or lost some big amount of money because of novice trading. Many students will use the knowledge they gained in crypto education and might result in losing interest on his studies.
