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?
cryptocurrency should really be taught in any schools so that people would become aware of it |

Actually a student of mine told me today that they were studying about cryptocurrencies in their economics class (I am an english teacher).
I was curious so I went to go talk to the economics teacher and it turns out she is an investor lol.
We were pleasantly surprised that we were even hodling some of the same coins (polymath and nano).
For this situation, it was included in the class because of the teacher's personal interest.
however, I believe there is a lot of merit to studying crypto.
Just by tracing the short history of the market, you can see clear examples of how supply and demand works.
Also, the nature of speculation and bubble economies.
Not only that, discussing how blokchain can transform the world is a good deep dive analysis into how bloated our organizations and companies are.
For anyone remotely interested in economics it is a terrific area of study.

It's a good idea if cryptocurrency is taught in schools because this is related to banking. However, if we look at the attitude of some countries that prohibit cryptocurrency activities, it is difficult to implement. And even if we do it by word of mouth, it will also be dangerous. What I say specifically in countries that still prohibit

This is not serious. At school, children must receive basic knowledge that will be useful to them in later life.
Therefore, I consider it absolutely useless to talk about cryptocurrency at school.
However, I consider it quite possible and necessary to introduce a small direction on it in colleges. Especially for students of economic faculties.
It will be the most correct decision.

This is a very laudable idea. Crypto needs to spread its wings across the globe and to achieve this, it requires massive and effective awareness creation. Integrating Blockchain and cryptocurrency into the educational curriculum is one of the ways to create awareness on crypto.

I think children doesn't need to do this because what i think its a big obligation for them at an early age to handle.Even in our country bitcoin was not known to teachers,its just few of us,there is also a big problem in accordance with the law in a certain country.There is a certain time for them to learn on but not with their age. |

Cryptocurrency was taught at the school, in my opinion, a very good idea. However, it will be difficult to be able to enter the world of education. Because many people who don't know about Cryptocurrency and the government don't approve. So the lesson about Cryptocurrency is limited to those who already know about the internet world.

Of course this is a good idea, the times are increasingly modern and education in schools will certainly increase too, if this can be realized of course it takes a long time, because crypto in some countries has not been recognized and of course government approval is also needed in this matter

this is a technology and world development. very important for those who are studying to learn this from the beginning. I think cryptocurrency and blockchain must be included in a course at a university. I see there is university info that has opened courses on blockchain.

In my opinion, if cryptocurrency is taught in schools, it will disrupt their focus in learning. Nowadays school children are very proficient and adaptable to technology. When they understand the use and benefits that can be obtained from crypto, they will be curious, addicted and tend to play more often with crypto. That can be a trigger for them to be lazy in school and then quit school because they are able to make money.

Of course this is good if cryptocurrency can be taught at school early, because in the future crypto will be more widely known but this is certainly not easy because it has to get approval from the government, hopefully this can be realized so that crypto will develop better

It seems to me that all this is definitely too overvalued, of course it’s good if the children knew what a blockchain is, but I think that over time this will be very often studied and many technologies can really try to do something for themselves.

That even sounds cool. I would be happy if my children began to learn how to use cryptocurrencies and give them some theory at school. It's fantastic for me and if it's life I'll be very happy |

Actually I've heard about blockchain courses in a few schools but not cryptocurrency per say. Like you mentioned, it will be wise if crypto is taught in schools in my own opinion too. Something shocked me last week, I saw an exam paper of a popular professional body, ICAN (which is an accounting professional exam) and guess what, one section was about bitcoin, ethereum and ripple. If crypto can be taught in schools, the scam notion will reduce and general acceptance will also increase.

Then what is the cryptocurrency now and the whole market cannot be taught in school because there is no reason for movement, that is, if the coin has the best technology, then it should be in the first place, but as we see, not the best coins occupy the first lines of the coin rating  |

There will be some students who will encounter such difficulty in learning about cryptocurrency because some of them will not be interested to it. I also think it is unappropriate to teach students about cryptocurrency because they may leave school and start making in an early age. |

with this new genius generation, i think crypto will become an important subject. indeed it's difficult to imagine how school system might alter withinn another 10 years. i just hope it'll be for the better |

I am absolutely sure that if we had the opportunity to study such modern science in school, then we would be completely different people. Now I really hope that everything will change and the children will begin to learn the necessary things |
