Seniors vs Kids — in the future of Bitcoin

[drwhobox]

Todays kids are tomorrows future, so it is not a bad idea to teach the kids about bitcoin and cryptocurrency. But don't make the cryptocurrency lesson compulsory for the kids, and don't take your young kids into crypto, let them understand the technology slowly.

Kids are the future of everything, not just bitcoin. Seniors are typically much more conservative, and unwilling to learn or change the way they do things.  Of course right now seniors have more of an impact on bitcoin than children do because after all children aren’t working a 9 to 5 and bringing home the bacon, so to speak. So if they’re not buying bitcoin their not contributing a whole ton. But, they eventually will and will help bring forward a lot of change in this type of realm.

I saw some post in this forum talking about kids with cryptocurrency. We all know that the "youth are the hope of our Country", this is what Jose Rizal said, known as a national hero in the Philippines before he died. So if we relate this with Bitcoin, kids has a lot of time, strength and potentials than Seniors, and I think most of you agree with that. However, we shouldn't force our kids to learn Bitcoin if they're not willing, we have to wait patiently for the right time.

I saw a news saying that in "2022 Crypto scams against seniors surged 78%", you might agree that one of the reason why these happened is the lack of knowledge in cryptocurrency. But a lot of seniors contributes to the success of Bitcoin.

Do you agree that kids is the future of Bitcoin than with seniors?
And which of them will contribute the most?

This is an interesting topic to be discussed. you said that seniors contribute to the succes of bitcoin, there is no doubt with it because they are motor of bitcoin movement because they are the investors who have the money rather than kids who do not have it (generally like that). But both of them have their time to contribute. Seniors have more contributions at present time, then kids will be potentially have chance to contribute in the future.

Everybody is the future of Bitcoin because Bitcoin never set a boundary and the last time I checked it was created to break the boundary and unleash greatness.
There is no doubt that children are the future, but their age and knowledge should be considered before allowing a child to participate in Bitcoin.

Instead of teaching kids or senior people about Bitcoin, we should better teach them about being safe in the internet, not being scammed or cyber security in general. Being protected is more important than being able to earn or bring money into the internet. Let them first learn how not to lose current, fiat money, instead of learning what could be future digital money and technology.

Agree with you, even though Bitcoin is best of cryptocurrency there's still a risk if you immediately jump into it without enough knowledge. Both of them needs to learn especially if you only have a little knowledge. There's some point that seniors are with pride, difficult to teach but instead of giving up we have to be patient if you love them. You know how hard getting scammed by someone, especially if this money is your savings. So for kids and seniors, including me, should be teachable.

Prevention is better than cure, but who will do it?  i mean, the people who are just focusing and trying to make a profit, and we are also teaching others how to make money, nobody seems to care safe on the internet.  Not many people will teach someone how to protect themselves against the internet and then learn how to make money. most will only be interested in protecting themselves from dangers once they have lost their money.

I will have a different point of view on this matter which represents my belief in how things work in a direct and simple manner. I Personally when first learned about Bitcoin years ago i was a child I didn't understand what blockchain was. So I had to learn many things and conduct some research on topics that werent already available back then like now. Even my parents were unaware of the existence of Bitcoin back then and even if I try to explain it to them they would have issues understanding it at that time.
But it is important to recognize that its not kids but rather older people who initiated this change (bitcoin) in how things operate and it will take many years and extensive learning to understand the creation of cryptocurrencies and create the associated security measures and systems for it. Therefore the future of Bitcoin is in the hands of both younger generations and the older ( Seniors and Kids ). What truly matters is supporting the idea as ideas never die.

Neither Senior or Junior it will contribute to bitcoin or crypto ecosystem the fact is cryptocurrency is still at early stage this is a new technology so we need dozen of people to join the network.

but maybe one thing is sure in future junior crpyto will get a lot benefit from the senior crypto but of course the junior crypto will keep evolve the network for better ways

I am not sure about it, they will not thrive without a senior mentor to direct them. sometimes, the junior goes too far and makes mistakes that affect to global. So, they should be taught from now on like how to keep their assets safe, and cold storage and maybe it's time to start how to mine and run nodes because it's an important thing in the Bitcoin community. if no one is mining, absolutely there is no one can validate and confirm the transaction, so the situation makes Bitcoin perish and no worth anymore in the future.

Well I can recall that saying of Jose Rizal back when people here in our country are still somehow showing the traditional manners, but shit has changed a lot even for kids. At the age of around 8 y/o, you can see most of them doing TikTok vids already. That already made me lost my belief that youth, at least in our country, is still a sign of hope.

About the scams happening, surely even kids are purely going to be easily scammed by them although they're not just that aware yet about the usage of cryptos.

Today kids are tomorrow's future, so it is not a bad idea to teach the kids about Bitcoin and cryptocurrency. But don't make the cryptocurrency lesson compulsory for the kids, and don't take your young kids into crypto, let them understand the technology slowly.

It's a long process. Learning about Bitcoin or another cryptocurrency is not possible in a week or a month. I read somewhere a prominent member was saying he would prefer teaching about the importance of privacy and security to their kids. If they understand how important are privacy and security, they will look for it and eventually, they will find out Bitcoin.

Well, you don't have to force them to learn more about Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies. Let them decide what they want to adopt. Give them the basic idea that can raise interest in their mind to learn more about Bitcoin.

Not only that they lack knowledge in cryptocurrency, but also lack in knowledge about the latest technologies in general. Seniors are above 60 yrs old, majority of them doesn't involved much in the latest technologies and only those who worked in the office will have opportunity to learn more about the computer and the internet, once they have learned it they almost immediately think they know everything in the internet,
so most probably those seniors who were scammed probably have read enough hype and shills in the social media that causes them to buy shitcoins.

I think this are somehow a complicated question LOL.
Future of bitcoin? Probably the kids, seniors are retired, I dont think they will spend their precious time working on programming or any computer related stuff to try and fix the scalability and other bitcoin related issues.
And what contribution are we talking about? Again, seniors are retired, they won't gonna work onto something for bitcoin. The only contribution they can make is to buy and hold bitcoins.

[tread93]

I absolutely agree that kids are the future of bitcoin, albeit you can't discredit the seniors I think there is a very large portion of bitcoin holders in their 50s and 60s but some of the older generation is definitely at a disadvantage simply because they are too old school. Most of them still use flip phones and still answer the phones and fall victim to scammers. Younger folks also fall victim to scams too just not as much I would say. I hope bitcoin doesn't become too unaffordable in the future for the young guns though I fear they could perhaps miss the boat....

[Patrol69]

I think children should never be forced into this. A grown man can think like a young child but cannot think like that. And just because you're involved with Bitcoin doesn't mean your child has to be involved with Bitcoin. If your child is interested in Bitcoin when your son or child becomes an adult, you can teach them different things about Bitcoin. But teaching or trying to teach him different things about Bitcoin from an early age can do the opposite for that young child. So children should always be allowed to grow up properly.

Kids are the future, period. Regardless of whatever topic and future you may think of, they are the ones that will eventually face that future, however this does not really tell us much, on average those which have adopted bitcoin with more enthusiasm are the Millennial generation, which are neither senior citizens or kids, which makes sense as many senior citizens are too set on their ways and do not want to learn anything new, while kids do not have the knowledge or the money to invest in bitcoin.

[SquirrelJulietGarden]

Kids are the future of everything, not just bitcoin.

Kids have plain brains that can absorb new knowledge, new technologies very easily and quickly. If they get exposed to Bitcoin and cryptocurrency, they will learn about it quickly and more likely will use it in future.

Seniors are typically much more conservative, and unwilling to learn or change the way they do things.

Like the seniors or elderly will not likely want to use ChatGPT for their works but GenZ employees will use it a lot for their jobs.

Of course right now seniors have more of an impact on bitcoin than children do because after all children aren’t working a 9 to 5 and bringing home the bacon, so to speak. So if they’re not buying bitcoin their not contributing a whole ton. But, they eventually will and will help bring forward a lot of change in this type of realm.

The demographics in Bitcoin and cryptocurrency will switch to become stronger and stronger. The seniors and elderly will fall behind in next 10 to 20 years. Creativeness exists more in young people, not in old people in general.

When the older ones are no more or even incapacitated as nature may have it, who takes over, the answer is the kids, this is the reason why we should impact the knowledge to them,
The younger generation has a role to play in the future of Bitcoin and it should be our obligation to teach them and prepare them for the future.

Bitcoin has come to stay, it is only when we push toward that lane, teaching, and learning is a continuous process that has to be maintained.
The future of this currency depends on our effort towards its sustenance and for us to keep the hope of the currency alive, it is by telling the younger ones about it, lets us not see money and their age as a barrier to enlightening them, they are young, they will grow and also have the money to invest, the most important thing is for them to be knowledgeable.

[tjtonmoy]

In case of Bitcoin adaptation, kids will play a very important part in it. Many seniors are lacking knowledge on how to use a smartphone. So we can not expect them to carry Bitcoin on their shoulders. On the other hand, kids these days learn to use smartphone at the age of 3/4. The availability matters the most is this case. Seniors did not have the opportunity to get bitcoin at their early age. So they have less experience with it. The vision we hold that Bitcoin will become the one and only currency worldwide, this has the better chance in the hands of the kids.

Now let's talk about seniors. When it comes to keep the thing running, seniors have the most important role. Trading in order to keep the market live happens by many seniors. Taking investment decisions, seniors does that. Kids can't do it right away. It's not about who holds more importance. It's about everyone's importance. We need both for the present and the future. So instead of Seniors VS kids, it should be seniors and kids.

[Ojima-ojo]

When you mentioned kids it draw everyone's attention to young children at kindergarten level who are still under the care of their parents and at that age I think these kids should be left alone to enjoy their childhood life because after that stage they will be occupied with real-life chalked that their need to handle on they own.


But if you said from the teenager stage it is best suitable for this introduction of cryptocurrency and other r financial hustles since their youthful and energetic at that age. The

Since the adoption of Bitcoin is increasing everyday just like many years ago when many persons for not have idea on what Bitcoin really means. Now there are many persons that are investing and holding Bitcoin for many reasons and I have heard that Bitcoin curriculum had been added to the some schools syllabus in Brazil and other countries that see Bitcoin as a legal tender. We expect more of this to happen in other countries too so that the adoption will increase with time and it has to start with the adolescent that are coming up to also learn and start investing in Bitcoin.

Don't forget, these seniors is the one who laid the foundation and path for these kids so that it can be much easier for them to reach their goal destination.  This kids got more potentials because the seniors made it easy for them since most of the difficulties had been cleared before they enter the field like regulations, adoption, advertisement etc...

Scams happens and it is normal when a technology is just emerging since lots don't know much about the new industry. Now when the kids grow and become an adult, it is obvious that Bitcoin has been around for decades and that all sort of possiblities and events had already happen and it is recorded which gives way for the new adult to learn and avoid such scams.

Do you agree that kids is the future of Bitcoin than with seniors?

The one who laid the foundation is the one who contributes the most.  These future kids will just reap the hard works of their seniors when time comes they are old enough to enter the Bitcoin industry.  About the future, it is obvious that the new generation will be the future because without them, Bitcoin won't continue.
