Should bitcoin be introduced into the educational sectors

[carter34]

but as of this moment there is a very less chance that bitcoin can be legally introduce to the educational sectors.

Even in the countries who fully accept bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, I still didn't hear that they already introduce bitcoin in their educational sectors.

But it is always a gradual process. Bitcoin itself is 10years despite the fud. So including it into the education learning or class room teaching is also going to come as the time is progressing. I have read about students doing thesis on blockchain anyway.

Had also encountered some students that are doing studies regarding blockchain. In our country there were also some seminars that tackles mainly blockchain, particularly or most likely bitcoin is the front example.
Blockchain is already being taught  on some universities, but this is depends on a course. This is most likely being taught on computer based courses. It will spread even more as the world is adopting on modern blockchains.

I still rarely find material about bitcoin in universities, we only find it in certain courses and seminars. The implementation of bitcoin or blockchain education in our country is almost non-existent, it may need special discussion to adopt an understanding of bitcoin to students.

[cheezcarls]

I believe there are some teachers out there are starting to introduce Bitcoin to their students in their respective online classes. But before the pandemic began, there were some universities worldwide who are already starting to acknowledge Bitcoin, cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology.

In the Philippines, some popular universities have offered elective blockchain courses (which of course, Bitcoin is included in their curriculum). When I was one of the guest speakers in educating the teachers and students about the real use cases of Bitcoin, cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology, their dean have considered to propose to the upper ranks to implement Bitcoin and blockchain in their curriculum.

It may take a long while (especially that pandemic is slowing us down), but we will get there. There come a time that most of the universities and colleges have adopted Bitcoin in their curriculum.

Universities might add cryptocurrency, investing or even stock market into the curriculum of some courses in the near future, I heard some of the courses like finance talk about some stocks and that's a good start but i prefer learning about it in some vocational like courses where it focuses about it, and for me it's sufficient to learn in online investing or crypto courses but the person needs to be passionate about it.

I think teaching people about money and generally how to make money is a better place to start. In school, you get out when you about 18 and you know nothing. You don't know how to pay bills fill forms take loans or run business since you were never taught. Luckily you get economics classes in schools and that is a great start and I think after we meet the basics of teaching the fundamentals of money in society then we can move nto bitcoin and digital currencies.

[Wawa2013]

It would be great if Bitcoin was introduced in universities, so there will be a lot of people who understand more about Bitcoin.
And it can remove the negative stigma associated with Bitcoin, because the general public sees many scams happening in
the crypto world, think Bitcoin is bad. But if it is true that Bitcoin was introduced to the world of education, the teacher must be
someone who has good knowledge in the world of crypto, so it is not wrong to explain Bitcoin to students. I believe that if this is
done, it can accelerate the mass adoption of Bitcoin.

If you're fortunate to be from a country that accepted Bitcoin or adopt the said Bitcoin then you can talk about it course integration into higher levels of education. Believe me, if your country doesn't accept Bitcoin the government of your country won't consider it. Like my country Nigeria, the government have adopted Bitcoin as a digital asset but maybe they won't consider it be teach in higher education but hope to see the government taking proactive steps in this regard.

The importance of Bitcoin be taught in the school is very much needed because of it technicalities. Considering Bitcoin security and volatility it should be taught in schools for proper orientation. We have heard thousands of complaints about Bitcoin difficulties which if taught in schools will enhance their understanding about the technology.

Well, that is right. Bitcoin is a form of digital money and it is considered as valuable digital stuff like money and I think teaching students how bitcoin works and the usage of the technology that bitcoin has is a good decision. Financial management like teaching basic information on how to become a good businessman and good investors should really helpful if this will be implemented in different educational sectors. They also understand how to manage risk, this could be interesting to talk regarding decentralized finance and the centralized one, it really belongs to economics educational purpose.

[rexxarofmoknathal]

There is a much needed implementation that education bodies needs to address about Bitcoin along with the blockchain technology. The problem is that I do not see this happening any time soon.
People are divided, and most don't believe in this new era of technology and digital currency. What's worse is that children in school should have also been learning about programming and AI, but the majority of schools fail to see the need for this. And, sadly this sets an example of how strong the resistance to change in education is but it also calls on the urgency for this unified decision - we need to prepare the future generation for what's to come.

[Sadlife]

As long as fiat exist, government or other institutions, will not introduce it. As it will harm their local currency, once the people realize how powerful, and valuable BTC can be, the same as Gold with a scarce and fix supply, that gives you freedom to your money, also with tons of opportunities to earn from it. It would be the downfall of the stock market.
I personally, been telling my friends about it, and doing all i can to save them to a potential financial crisis.

Good day guys, I'm here to discuss your different views and opinions if bitcoins should be infused into educational institutes. Although I personally think that if such action is taken, Bitcoin economy will expand and more traders will come into the crypto market with these few points:
Bitcoins a completely decentralized digital currency built with the knowledge of its unidentified creator Satoshi Nakamoto, Roughly 12 years ago the knowledge of this currency was know to only a group of internet surfers but over the years as more individuals were told about this so did the bitcoin economy grow and the current market capitalization of the economy is estimated at about $117.81 billion. Businesses both big or small have decided to integrate the bitcoin platform into their activities. Thus making useful change within the bitcoin economy.

Good view and it should be introduced in educational sector. Now 30% of world economy is running by cryptocurrencies .So the future generation should know it in advance, it will be far and better. Now many people was employed in crypto currency field by trading, bounty hunting. So bitcoin became a one of unavoidable one in the economy ,it should added to our educational Curriculum.

[Mr.sprin]

That will not happen as long as bitcoin is introduced in training not at universities on the grounds that bitcoin has not been accepted in other countries. how can bitcoin enter education while bitcoin is not accepted by the government and even the government takes the opposite path.

[Chrystora123]

it is fitting for Bitcoin and Altcoins to enter the education sector..  Bitcoin is a cryptocurrency that has proven value and has a market, and the most suitable subject (college) to discuss Bitcoin is Economics.  I am sure that if the cryptocurrency is included in courses in economics it will increase students interest and enthusiasm..

[shamimal93]

I agree with your opinion.  At one time no one knew anything about bitcoin.  Bitcoin was limited to a small group.  But now Bitcoin has spread all over the world.  People around the world have learned about this bitcoin.  Now the knowledge of this bitcoin should be spread more widely.  School, college, and university curricula should include a chapter on bitcoin and blockchain.  Like you, I believe bitcoin will be the only medium of digital transactions.

Bitcoin should be introduced in Universities on business and economics faculties, this is very necessary. Even lectors have no idea about cryptocuurrencies or if they have, in 99 cases they say just rumors that they have heard like: crypto is used for money laundering, in black markets and all of the bad stuff is done via bitcoin. When I hear this kind of proposals from people, I have serious debate with them.
So, in universities it must be really included in programs, it's very necessary for upcoming managers, business administrators, economists and etc.

[Welsh]

It is mentioned in Computer Science, and related degrees already. However, I've yet to see a non specific Bitcoin degree have a module solely on the Blockchain. Although, I know there are universities within the United Kingdom which do case studies on the Blockchain within the course syllabus. Honestly, growing up, and looking at the early stages of education money, and finance needs to be introduced in a practical way. I honestly, believe that taxes should be taught from a early age, because of something which you'll always be subjected too you never learn about. Especially, when its such a complex task to do. However, as we all know the majority of your education life is teaching you how to be a good employer, and not what you're suppose to use during your life. The system is broken, and I don't see Bitcoin being implemented effectively until there's a complete change in both the attitude towards cryptocurrencies in general, and the education systems structure.

[Ayiranorea]

As of now we've got lot of awareness about bitcoin and the technology behind it. As the blockchain technology can be used on any of the  sector, it is sure to add bitcoin and the blockchain to the educational sector. The blockchain technology can be used in the management requirements, to make everything function precisely without error and the third party involvement.

These days we've got theoretical classes, but there isn't not much of practical guidance. Blockchain technology needs to be taught with the practical use and the future developments. Only then the learning will be more effective, or else the learning will be blank just holding a degree without any use of it.

Well it's not just mainly about the usage of bitcoin, or to spread the knowledge regarding the usage of bitcoin. The technology itself is the thing that should be learned. It's different from ""you can use it to buy anything without the presence of any third party"".

The general reason why this should be implemented is to have a positive development of this technology in the future.

Learning of bitcoin should start with the basic aspect of the technology which can be incorporated into the high schools curriculum so that the students in that category can have a first hand or introductory part of the technology, while the complex part should be taught in the Universities.
Experts in Blockchain technology are in high demand globally, this technology is gaining ground and wider acceptability across the globe due its capabilities in proffering solution to problems in almost every sector of the economy e.g chain supplies, Medicine, Election etc
