An easy approach to Bitcoin

[Bananington]

...

The regular information about bitcoin is too complex for some people to handle so it is important that the information is broken down into simple knowledge for some people to be able to comprehend, this video helps with that. Sure that they have been some other videos, but materials are never enough to really simplify what bitcoins are about. If one video does not make sense to someone, another one will.

It is really good to let children know about Bitcoin but I think making them involved in the Bitcoin economy in such early age makes no sense.  First kids has no capability to finance themselves, they are still reliant to their parents and should be enjoying their child hood.  Let them get interested on Bitcoin industry by themselves, I believe the right time for them to participate or get involved in Bitcoin will come one day but as a kid, let them enjoy being a kid.

You are right, it would be better for children to enjoy their childhood first so that they don't get bored quickly when they know about Bitcoin well, because children should have the desire to play rather than have an income and they will never think about it. how to earn income because they are still under the responsibility of their parents, if they have the desire to know about Bitcoin of course there is no harm in explaining it to them because this will be very useful for them someday.

Most people especially kids have heard about Bitcoin or crypto currency without really knowing what it is about or how it works.recently I came across a particular video which I found online.it was an animated video giving a very brief and basic knowledge about the concept of Bitcoin. It talked about why Bitcoin was created, how Blockchain works ,as well as mining.I saw it as a good approach to teaching young ones or even newbies about Bitcoin.Without saying much here is a link to the video.

What age of kids are you talking about, dude? Do you think kids will immediately understand blockchain and mining in this industry field? You make me laugh, no offense. If those adults are having a hard time understanding them because they don't get the hang of it right away, how about the kids? The majority of what they want to do is enjoy the life of being children or teenagers.

Do you think that in one night or just a moment, someone will immediately understand this? No one enrolled today in grade 1, then tomorrow in grade 2 immediately. You should have detailed the simple steps for the kids to understand this blockchain and mining, not what you just said here in just one paragraph.

It does not seem to me there is any harm in teaching kids valuable economic lessons at such an early age, we know very well most people will have to work 30 to 40 years before they retire, if they have any chance to retire at all, so teaching good habits regarding their finances at such an early age is a good thing in my mind.

This way when they grow up they will be able to take better decisions than their peers, begin to save, invest and obtain better results for themselves and their family.

most adult people dont even know how credit cards function behind the plastic. they just learn how to swipe/use it
most adult people dont even know or even understand or even taught about the economics of credit/debt

And most adult people also don't know how their money works. They're blind as to its system and even its whims and abuses. All they know is that it is the currency because of fiat or government order and that they're spending time, energy, creativity, their entire life for its sake. All the while, it is continuously devalued by the very institution which gave the order.

I think children and everybody else should also be enlightened about the real deal of money. Bitcoin would be more attractive if presented right after.

Nowadays in my country younger and younger have learning about  E-Wallets meaning that this
 adds even Bitcoin though literally many parents have not presented this to their children but at least we can see that in
very sooner time that they will developed knowledge and eagerness to also have their own , there is a popular E-wallet
 here that can also be used by younger age as long as there is a parent consent so it will be in the next line that they
 will learn and use Bitcoin.

What I also wanted to say that with our help as seniors to let everyone knows about bitcoin ,
 we can spread using our social media account or direct contacting to people closer to us.

Teaching children about bitcoin may have its advantages but I'm also not too comfortable with that idea. Children should be allow to pick interest on their own and choose whether to learn about it or not. The video actually makes sense but it's passing a wrong message to children with that statement "you mentioned criminals twice" labeling government as criminals. Government has its lapses but giving children such impressions at their early age is not a good idea.

The part that caught my attention in the video is the inflation of Bitcoin. Bitcoin can actually not be inflated in the same way that traditional fiat currencies can be because Bitcoin has a fixed supply with a maximum of 21 million coins that can ever be created and once all 21 million coins have been created, no more will be created. The supply will not increase to meet that demand that would lead to inflation.

Yeah labeling government as criminals in the video is a good example that explains why I said let children be children because the impression or elusion that will be created in their immature minds will diffuse to seeing the government as something else.
I have seen videos of where children are interviewed by Steve Harvey on the different things but the fact is everything that has been said in this interviews are all about skills or little experiences in education and other stuffs but not in any way about how to make and save money nor how to use finance neither invest or paradigm shifts like Bitcoin. So I will say according to the national president of my country "Let the children breath don't suffocate them with Bitcoin & and Blockchain technology knowledge".

I agree, I don't know what age the OP is talking about children but if he was talking about children under 10 I would object too. I am the one with 2 children and I personally witnessed raising them and watching them grow up day by day. Therefore, I feel that teaching bitcoin to children at this age is a waste and useless thing. Let them have a beautiful childhood, don't force or force them to do things they don't like. Bitcoin is just money, an investment, they can learn at any time when they grow up. To become rich, it is not necessary to invest in bitcoin early, and those who do not invest in bitcoin do not necessarily become poor.

Yeah it quite unfortunate how some parents try to use their children to achieve the dreams they failed to fulfill, if you couldn't make it to be among the first people to invest and profit from Bitcoin does not mean you should in any way impose them on your children by teaching them Bitcoin and Blockchain technology knowledge at tender ages just to justify yourself that they also will be among the first and sharpest kids to know technology.
Thereby causing brain fatigue for this kids by stressing them to know what you didn't know early enough.
When OP said children or kids there about according National Institutes of Health (NIH) the hierarchy of range from Children (1 year through 12 years) Adolescents (13 years through 17 years. They may also be referred to as teenagers depending on the context.) Adults (18 years or older) so the age that is classified as children here can't even think of anything other than play, eat and sleep. lol that shows it quite irrelevant to teach so cumbersome knowledge. 

most adult people dont even know how credit cards function behind the plastic. they just learn how to swipe/use it
most adult people dont even know or even understand or even taught about the economics of credit/debt

Yeah, then someone somewhere would be teaching a child below 12yrs about Bitcoin or Blockchain technology as a whole that is so versatile. how the hell do they want them to understand the fuck about Bitcoin when even so many adults don't understand yet. It's quite unfortunate 

[moneystery]

it's a good idea to introduce bitcoin to children, but at a very young age it's better to teach them lessons that are more important to them such as mathematics, science, etc. because even if they watch the video, maybe they won't understand anything that is discussed in the video.

maybe when they enter junior high school we can introduce bitcoin to them because at this age they already understand more about the financial system and it is easier for them to learn bitcoin. we can let them learn about bitcoin and how they think about the decentralized financial system offered by bitcoin.

As a person who loves watching anime and cartoons, I totally love the concept.

Don't get me wrong. I watched the reel, and TBH, it wasn't intended only for those children out there. It can also be watched by those teenagers out there who have little to no idea about Bitcoin. It can also be watched by those adults who want to learn Bitcoin. I mean it's for everyone.

I only watched the reel, which shows the basics of Bitcoin and I would say that it's informative. I don't like the fact that OP specified the kids where in fact he can say "Most people", but nevertheless, it's a big help for those newbies out there regardless of age... I guess.

It's refreshing to watch educational content that simplifies complex topics like Bitcoin and blockchain.
For my part, perhaps I'll just let my future children and nephews/nieces discover things about it, just like how fate led me here. My nephews/nieces are still young, so they don't know much about the financial aspect yet. If ever they find out about what I do in the crypto industry and if they become interested, like asking questions, I wouldn't hesitate to share what I know to the best of my knowledge. They already have cell phones, but they only use them for watching cartoons on YouTube and Netflix. Kids nowadays are really different; they're exposed to gadgets, and they easily adapt to new technologies, so maybe they're not that difficult to teach. But, of course, it still depends on their level of understanding.

This is definitely a great piece for not only children, but all beginners. Its very simple and easy to understand and the saying that one image is worth a thousand words is made evident here as proper imagery and illustrations were employed to drive the point home. Short and straight to the point too. Nice one and thanks for sharing.

Cartoon/animated films are very synonymous with children, of course this is a bit wrong, I think people from all walks of life will like animated films. Animated films sometimes contain a lot of educational value for anyone who sees them, even if some don't. The animation that OP inserted in the thread is very informative and can be easily digested by anyone, including newbies who want to get to know Bitcoin. Gradually, Bitcoin lovers have a way to educate and spread information related to Bitcoin in their own way.

[martinex]

Paradigm shifts in the search for and delivery of information have now changed, where previously people preferred to read, now they prefer to watch shows and the explanations they make. Yes. Good job from you OP and let the film do the talking and it is the easiest thing to convey especially for children so that it is easy to understand and understand as well as early education for basic knowledge about the concept of Bitcoin

[DabsPoorVersion]

I have also seen this video last month on Instagram. The way it was explained is clear and easily understood not only for the kids but also for adults who know nothing about Bitcoin. It's a good way to educate the basics to at least remove the doubts they have because some people still think of it as a tool for illegal activity.

The video can be used if there's someone you know asking about Bitcoin, this way, anyone doesn't even need to explain repeatedly or advice to do some research. Using this video on Instagram will explain the basics and if they get interested, they can handle the rest of the research with a basic understanding.  

[bayu7adi]

It does look fun watching that cartoon, but would kids under 10 really grasp concepts like computers, money, economics, and such? It seems like material more geared towards adults, just packaged in a cartoon format. While the explanation is easy to understand, it doesn't guarantee that all kids, especially those not interested in IT, would delve deeper into it.

For the full video of the clip, you can find it here: "The World’s First Kids Cartoon about Bitcoin!"

It's not a bad idea, but as of now, I wouldn't force this onto kids under 10. Perhaps when they're around 13, it might be more suitable. Not pushing... but just paving the way for them if they're genuinely interested in learning about Bitcoin technology and blockchain. I'd be there to help.

[mamesso]

This is a pretty brilliant idea as an early introduction for children to learn about Bitcoin. The concept is quite good, animated videos are really liked by children, they will understand more quickly about Bitcoin through simplified tutorials through animated videos. The knowledge they gain from the tutorials explained in the video can speed up the learning process when they are ready to learn all the knowledge about Bitcoin.

At this age, let them do whatever they want, inserting animated videos into their daily lives will also speed up the learning process for them. Newbies who want to learn about Bitcoin should combine the simple explanation in the video with reading articles related to the function and use of Bitcoin to speed up their understanding process.

It is really good to let children know about Bitcoin but I think making them involved in the Bitcoin economy in such early age makes no sense.  First kids has no capability to finance themselves, they are still reliant to their parents and should be enjoying their child hood.  Let them get interested on Bitcoin industry by themselves, I believe the right time for them to participate or get involved in Bitcoin will come one day but as a kid, let them enjoy being a kid.

You are right, it would be better for children to enjoy their childhood first so that they don't get bored quickly when they know about Bitcoin well, because children should have the desire to play rather than have an income and they will never think about it. how to earn income because they are still under the responsibility of their parents, if they have the desire to know about Bitcoin of course there is no harm in explaining it to them because this will be very useful for them someday.

This way when they grow up they will be able to take better decisions than their peers, begin to save, invest and obtain better results for themselves and their family.

Of course they won't harm the children, but they also have no effect, it's just a waste of time for us and them. At school age, tuition, living expenses, and every meal still depend on your family, what did you think and do at that age? Why do you have the thought of forcing children who are still in their playful age to learn things that are not necessary for them?

Have you ever thought why the education sector doesn't teach university and high school programs to elementary and middle school students? Financial education and introducing bitcoin investment is something we should do with our children, but we need to wait for them to mature at the appropriate age.

[michellee]

With so many animated videos like that, young people can be attracted to learn more about Bitcoin. If it interests them, they will definitely look for more information. They are young people with a high curiosity about something and will try to find out more about Bitcoin.

Of course, they still need to be accompanied by an adult so they can explain what they don't understand. And I saw that on YouTube, there are many basic video tutorials about Bitcoin. It is a great step to spread knowledge about Bitcoin to young people.

But we should not force them to watch the video if they are not interested. Let them search first while we accompany them. Maybe we can set the video so that there is curiosity about the video.

[cafter]

This cartoon video is awesome! It breaks down bitcoin for newbies so well.
But you know, most people, like around 90%, probably did not stick around for the entire video.
 I have noticed a bunch of people who have no clue about economics, stocks, taxes, and all that.
It just seems like some folks are not curious enough to dive into new stuff and learn about it.

[SAHASAN]

In my opinion this is a good direction.
By doing this, children and future generations will gain knowledge about the world's financial activity and inflation, and learn about the benefits of Bitcoin and the noble purpose of Blockchain.
