I think cryptocurrency is too serious theme to make kids involved. They can be scammed easily or just lost their passwords or something
Thanks for the comment MountianConqueror!
Let me tackle this one in few points:
Are kids playing with Crypto?
No, we created Pigzbe to give an extremely easy entry point into the world of cryptocurrencies, for both parents and children. Pigzbe is a financial literacy product, as opposed to a savings product, where children and parents can enjoy a deeply educational experience without having to invest much. Any fluctuation in the price of Wollo won’t actually affect the gaming experience, or the learning.
I don’t get it, why should kids learn this?
Educating children about money needs to start early. Studies show that, one in four students struggles with the simplest of financial responsibilities. Check out the OECD for more on that:
http://www.oecd.org/newsroom/many-teenagers-struggle-to-understand-money-matters.htmPigzbe is trying to prepare children for the financial system of the future. Cryptocurrencies are something no parent can afford to ignore if they want their children to have a good grip on the modern financial system.
Could kids be scammed? is this secure enough?
The Pigzbe device for kids is only a game controller and notifier. The parent is the primary account holder and the Pigzbe DApp is designed from the ground up to be secure. If you want to read more about the security aspect, please refer to our White Paper here
