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?

if cryptocurrency will be taught in school, it will be a huge breakthrough in the world and finally cryptocurrency will begin to perceive differently and in the right perspective. I'm sure it will be a revolution in the mind

It could be a great idea, but the problem is there are too many subjects at the moment... perhaps it could be one lesson of informatic subject... perhaps

Maybe in the future they can introduce cryptocurrency in school but for now it would be hard because most governments are not into adapting cryptocurrency into their countries. If they could find a way to minimized the risk of being scammed then maybe that would be the right time to teach cryptocurrency in the academe. I think when that time comes where the risk of investing into cryptocurrency is minimal, gain would also reduce.
If cryptocurrency can limit the usage of crime, it is really good subject to be taught in school. But i think you should find how to limit criminal first, it is really important.

yes I too believe it is a bit tough to make people understand about cryptocurrency but any new thing will have challenges but finally, it will emerge.

Is it true? will this have a good impact? whether there is permission for this. I think this is too fast to do, crypto currency is not so good to be taught in the school environment and included in the education curriculum

for me, cryptocurrencies are very serious and it seems to me that if they are introduced in schools as a mandatory discipline to study, it will be just the largest coup in history. a huge step towards a digital future

Schools should start teaching lessons Savings. Personal Budget.
It is necessary to acquaint students from an early age with methods of saving money, various forms of savings;  the structure of the student's personal budget, the importance of his planning;  to bring up the skill of rational housekeeping.
About the lessons of investing in cryptocurrency, I think it's too early to say.

my family knows briefly about cryptocurrency. I bring them up to speed, because it's my legacy. I don't think schools will start teaching this soon. because the education system is far behind the present. I believe that it is our responsibility to teach our children to earn as we do.

It's possible if it is for the content of the course, but for secondary education level subjects it seems unlikely. because the government needs consideration and its ranks so that crypto becomes a school lesson, we know that even the banking people don't all agree with crypto investments because the physical is not visible,

It will be very good because people need to learn something while they are young and in schools professionals will teach them about blockchains and they will definetly have more knowledge about that. I already saw some next about that i think in malta they will start to teach about blockchain some schools. You are right. That is what we need.

I think this is right thing to do because children should know about such way to earn money and they will be protected from many scam projects

I think crypto has now begun to be explained in the world of children, because I have heard that many school children are familiar with crypto. therefore, over time, surely crypto will develop even more from now on

If Blockchain Technology is taught at school, I think this is a very good idea. That way more people will be interested in joining Cryptocurrency. So when they have entered the Cryptocurrency, they already have knowledge. And many people won't be easily caught up in fraudulent projects.
Right, we should start with educating children so that when they are grown up they already know all the pitfalls, pros and cons of crypto trading and investment.
My children are too young for crypto they would not comprehend because they are not willing.
Also, I believe it will only be taught in school when it's fully regulated by the government, they will create a curriculum for this, but I guess
there is no need because anyone can educate with proper research online.

I think we need to be around the age of 15 or so to be able to take on the crypto market. But I find it unnecessary, because the stock market is a long-standing market and more examples to illustrate the children than the crypto.

Yes you are right, many people lost this last year really much money, because they often haven't even basic knowledge about blockchain and cryptocurrencies and many of them were trying to trade on the exchanges although they knew very little about how to reduce the losses. That would never happen if these people got some of such useful knowledge already in the school.

I think that so far cryptocurrencies are so young and extremely unstable that they should not be taught at school. There will always be in school enthusiasts who will be interested in this topic and they will be able to learn more about it if such a desire arises, but it is not necessary to teach at school.

This will be possible when cryptocurrency will be used in most parts of the world in everyday life, but we still have to try to get through to this stage, as now the development of this area is only beginning to gain momentum.

someday it will become evident that the need for cryptocurrency technology can be accepted and taught by everyone to enter the school room, cryptocurrency is the technology that is needed by everyone now due to transaction speed and convenience, but the level of security of wallet and exchange needs to be improved.
