Argentina is about to launch bitcoin education in their curriculum,  this is going to take place in 40 High schools with about 4,000 students.  This is  an Interesting news many  bitcoiners have been waiting for,  I think this won't just end in Argentina,  other countries will take this same good  within a short time.

Argentina  is the second highest  bitcoin  adopter in Latin America,  I the reason for the innovation is to make students  know  the importance of bitcoin. The economy of Argentina is suffering in the hands of hyperinflation.

Secondary  school are great target for  influencing the youngsters to study and use  crypto as they are young,fresh and dedicated.
but i think we need to focus more in Users in which colleges as they are directly involved in doing something good for the community and the market .
But hoping that the world will implement this for bigger and wider views for Bitcoin.

That is a good addition for sure. But kids these days already know a lot about crypto and they even get into trading and investing at a very young age. There is plenty of information online and we don't know which one is true. Now adding crypto into the school curriculum will be a good way to educate them properly with relevant information.

40 high schools isn't as big of a step as some others did (for example, France added Blockchain and cryptos into the overall school curriculum, not as an experiment in a bunch of schools), but it's still better than nothing.

Exactly, it's way better than nothing because those students anyway will be able to understand and explain what bitcoin is also to their families, friends, etc, and we all have to start somewhere. Also I don't think it's fair comparing Argentina and France, we're talking about 2 completely different countries and economies.

Argentina have a population of around 46-47 million. Among this half the population is under the age of 30. This means what is being taught now will surely make a big impact in the countries upliftment through technology and economical growth. The country is experiencing hard corruption issues, and students through their learning can come up with a solution through the technology.

I really do hope that this can make a big difference for the new generations, especially because I love Argentina and it's a pity that they're always in a financial mess. The only problem could be if they actually have the money to risk in bitcoin, because the salaries are low, inflation is high, I'm not so sure that an average Joe is willing to put some bucks in bitcoin, it could be seen as a huge bet.

A lot of speculation is possible. We can't predict exactly what the future holds. But so far, maybe they will learn a lot about Blokchain Technology, not about trading. Because the scope of bitcoin is very wide and governments in all countries still refuse to make bitcoin an official currency. In addition, I am happy that currently the world of education and countries are starting to open up to learn bitcoin/blockchain. At least this can bring the effect of the name bitcoin becoming more and more known and more and more people are studying it and in the end they are using it.

We can't just ignore the new trend. Perhaps, for 14 years that crypto has been existing, we see bad/good things happen around, it was likely the time to step forward for a better environment where digital currency is worth experiencing. as it was been introduced in school, it was a stepping stone for better knowledge and understanding of crypto and blockchain technology. As the more they grasp the idea about crypto, the more they will appreciate the usefullness of this project.

this is a great development,, and with more and more people teaching bitcoin lessons means in the future bitcoin will be even better, and I think for sure other countries will also adopt more bitcoins and teach bitcoin lessons to, their people.

Hopefully this will spread and be done in other countries as well as on other continents.  Maybe even include it as part of financial literacy in high school and blockchain in college.
