Digital Currencies being taught in schools

[Digitalizm]

Hmm...schools no, Universities - yes and yes! Its good to let the our young ppl know about the existence of blockchain but also a risk of it as well. I see the short courses organized by many Universities. But the first one I came across was a Coursera. I think it was very first courses on Crypto and Blockchain.

So what do you think guys, do accounting students need a blockchain course?

Recently there are so many crypto start ups and ICOs are offering jobs, i think its quite important to have at least a background knowledge of blockchain network, crypto and related fields, in order not to be left behind.
And there are need of accounts, financial advisors and so on, who are familiar with blockchain network.
Its trending now and it is the future.

What are your thoughts regarding this news?

Should universities all over the world also offer this course ?
 
What are the consecuences if this goes on?

Well for me its a good news that universities is teaching about digital currencies , this will help a lot of students to earn and learn more about the cryptocurrencoes. They can also help themselves financially in school in paying their tuition fees and other miscellanious in school. If apply this kind of courses all around the world , i think that digital currencies will be able to growth and many investors will get to invest in crypto.

The currencies is not what should be taught  ..It's what blockchains can do to make other things tick over..

I asked a computer science teacher about blockchain   do you know what she said?  she said i have heard of it

The currencies is the last thing they need to know  they need to know why would you use blockchains or central servers sending out commands but both can collect
information then send out commands TO DO WHAT THOUGH   i keep my one a secret  BUT some might have their own ideas ..

But up to know i haven't seen many good useful ideas why and what for you will use blockchains ..

No you all need to pay me just like the ICO dudes getting free cash..

You would teach children to gamble?  well that's currencies ..NOT blockchain  to build then makes the monies for an actual product is what we must teach our children..
Not buy some crypto then bail when you thinks it's high enough  ..

Yes we can makes good monies BUT someone is left with the rubbish at the end of the day and it could be little dave you been teaching about currencies and not teaching little dave how to code and build stuffs..

The future of money can not be separated from digital currency , the world has been changing , tech has been changed  virtual , AI , so its time for the money who will be changed .

Knowledge is power, right? I’m all for including cryptocurrency and blockchain in curriculums. This article says it best:
https://www.express.co.uk/finance/city/975254/bitcoin-news-today-cryptocurrency-schools-education-university-course
“high quality financial education is key to making sure that young people have the knowledge to make important decisions later in life… In addition, our new computing curriculum ensures pupils will have the broader knowledge and skills they need to go on to specialise in cutting edge technologies and become actively involved in using and creating their own digital technology.”
Do you agree?

Yesterday I met with a marketing company for blockchain and ICO projects, who interestingly enough have just produced a Childs book, about cryptocurrency and blockchains which you can explain to an audience with the age of about 5-8year olds. Im interested to see what sort of revenue and interest this book might get. I think blockchain is a very interesting hot topic, it should be a mandatory module of all computer science and networking degrees.
