Many government will not agree on that I thik. They need to focus on their coarse or anything they can learn cryptocurrency in their home even they did not teach cryptocurrency they will learn cryptocurrency in their own like what we do in cryptocurrency. But maybe in.the future some school will really teach cryptocurrency but to be implemented first that.

I never thought that cryptocurrency and blockchain could be taught in schools, but it really can happen.

Yes the time will come in future because the digital currency is booming. A lot of people already use this currency. Hopefully in future it will the main transaction system. So the basic learning should start from school.
I agree. In the future, cryptocurrency may be the only form of currency to be used globally. The technology is moving up on a very fast pace and the kids of today need to be prepared as early as now as it will be this generation who will catch all these evolution in the digital world in the future hence the earlier they are taught about it, the better for them and what is the best platform learning. It's the schools and universities.

I am very happy to see enthusiasts that would like to spread the information about cryptocurrencies to everyone. But we have to admit that this field is new and quite unstable at the moment: I would recommend starting with blockchain first. Maybe if they see the possibilities of decentralized databases, they would actually be curious about it and that would be great. A young generation of developers can bring us the new leaders of companies which will have the blockchain implemented or they would actually use crypto on a daily basis. Our possibilities are limited only with the fantasy  Wink.
Yeah I know. The fact that cryptocurrency is not regulated, it will be a challenge incorporating them in the academic curriculum. On the other hand, some private training schools may offer short courses about it. If I have the funds, I will start it but I dont so calling Bill Gates. lol!

Well, it was just my idea however, as I got to realize it, since cryptocurrencies are not regulated, it may not be accepted to be part of the academic curriculum. It may on the other hand be offered as short courses by private schools or someone rich who is into it might want to be a philanthropist and donate funds to put up a cryptocurrency learning center. What do you think?

Blockchain technology is developing at a rapid pace.more and more people know cryptocurrency. perhaps the school will offer relevant courses when it is legal and popular.

I agree. It will be hard to convince those in authority of the education system because they themselves may not understand exactly what crytocurrency is aside from the fact that it's not regulated. Maybe in the future, yes although I hope it won't be too late when they realize its importance since I think the crypto industry will grow more in the future.

I also believe that in the future it will be the mainstream therefore ot is very important that the next generation has the background or some sort of schema to the said topic. This wi be benificial for everyone to understand how it wroks and what is it for. And also this will be a preparation.

It seems to me that it would be great if they taught cryptocurrency at school. it would definitely raise the level of education of the population in the future in the field of blockchain and cryptocurrency Wink

It certainly will raise the level of education on cryptocurrencies and if incorporating it in school may be hard to do because it's not regulated, perhaps a private learning school for it may be built to serve the same purpose. Thoughts?

Now the cryptocurrency is only developing and there are no those fundamentals to teach skills and knowledge in school, but from what you need to start!

Hi guys!
I'm pretty sure that many of you have been experiencing difficulty on making other people aware of cryptocurrency and how it works, right? I myself find it hard to explain it even to my own family. Once you mention it to them, the first thing that comes to their mind is that it's a scam. Can't blame them though because the news about crypto scams are always hyped in social media and believe me, even my 70 year old mom has Facebook!

Anyway, I realized that this is the case because there has never really been any formal education about it at all. We knew about it only thru word of the mouth right and we only got to learn it slowly thru experience. This said, I'm thinking, what if it's taught in schools? Perhaps just start with those taking Accountancy or Banking and Finance courses to begin with, then eventually incorporate it to Mathematics subject or whatever in High School? After all, they were able to do that with banking, right? Why not with cryptocurrency? What do you think?

I very much hope for such changes in the future. I truly believe that the new generation should explore the opportunities and benefits of crypto at school. Indeed, thanks to this, young people will be able to learn successful investments and get useful knowledge for different areas of their activities

Well I think it should be. However I doubt that it will be told in detail. Cryptocurrencies are a way for financial freedom and detachment from the current financial system of centralized banks and governments. Governments may not want everyone to learn about this. However they can not stop the technology. We live in the age of information. No one can hinder development.

I also support this idea. After all, such changes in schooling will be very useful for young people at an early stage of learning cryptocurrency. Also, such courses must be studied by students in order to gain new and useful knowledge for their lives.

In my country, some universities have started elective courses on blockchain and cryptocurrencies. It isn't possible to teach in all schools, learning through individual efforts will benefit more.

Well I see some of online course available from MIT is discussing or talking about blockchain aswell. Considering how useful blockchain to improve efficiency in various aspect of technology it's basically not a questino because
learning technology knows no bounds, technology always developing and becoming more and more advanced and blockchain happen to be the product of that.

I totally agree with you. If we want to increase the awareness of cryptocurrency, then cryptocurrency should be included in the educational curriculum and high schools and collages are a good place to start.

I would love that because the ideology people have about cryptocurrency is that its used for illegal activities, they never get the idea how it works, its complexity, its usecase. There are universities now offering courses on blockchain. With this, ignorance about this technology will subside.

As far as I know, it is taught in schools already, but it is introduced to college students in courses like information technology, computer science, computer engineering and other courses related to computer. They are taught about the concept of nodes and blockchain technology, how it works and also mining. The non-technical side or the layman's term should be taught to the masses because cryptocurrency os an emerging technology that is here to stay for the coming years. if one can teach how to send an email or how to add a friend in social media, then teaching cryptocurrency should also be considered.

If the major of the peoples in your country using cryptocurrency, and the government allowing the crypto to be used, then learning cryptocurrency
in the school is a good thing to do. But for now, even some countries still banning crypto, so they won't be able to learn anything regarding crypto in their country legally.

Thou, this idea may be regarded as illogical and unrealistic at least for now, believe me it will still come to be. I know it well that blockchain tech will be an integral part of the future ahead. Then if it will be, we will definitely see a development like this. Thou, it may start very slow, it will grow like wide fire into places people will never believe they will go. Also I can see this thread starting in developed countries such as America, China, Japan and the likes.
