Crypto should be put into the educational curriculum.

Maybe the United States which I am not that sure about but adding Bitcoin education to students curriculum would be a good idea for early understanding on what people should know about Bitcoin and the blockchain. The adoption of cryptocurrency is growing gradually and that will be impressive if their are children that are being taught about Bitcoin and how they can utilize the knowledge they are getting to become a better investor as they grow older.

The US hasn't included crypto in its K-12 curriculum. For now, only around 28% of universities offer blockchain courses.

Afaik El Salvador is the only country so far that's brought Bitcoin and financial literacy into the curriculum for kids aged 7 to 13.

I've got no issue with teaching blockchain in schools, but crypto? Hmm. It's just a speculative market. Is that really necessary?

Crypto is something everyone need to understand because we are gradually moving to the era of digital money.

The world's heading into a digital era, not just a digital money era. So we'd be way better off teaching the core tech and the fundamentals than zooming in on one specific use case like crypto.

Why crypto currency should be made part of our educational curriculum, the next phase of Crypto Adoption and the younger generation of Crypto Adopters.

I don't want crypto to be put into the school curriculum. It will be misleading to think the government is trying to help. However, what I think students need is more financial knowledge because education should focus only on helping a child build a career, but it should also be able to teach them ways to earn and how to manage what they earn.

The very most important part of crypto is by educating students on how to question what they see, gather enough information before they but their money into it. Someone can know how to use a wallet and still for for a fake investment platforms that looks promising to guarantee a possible return. Schools should teach this along with the risks that is involved, also including the fact that not every crypto project is legitimate and that transactions may be irreversible. The aim should not only be to have more crypto investors but to have people that can differentiate between genuine innovation from financial manipulation.

Which cryptocurrencies are you referring to? Aside from Bitcoin, almost all cryptocurrencies should be approached with caution; those lacking financial or investment knowledge should avoid investing in them. In general, however, I agree that it is necessary to include this topic as part of the school curriculum.

You are right, Bitcoin is the most reliable coin when talking about cryptocurrency, all the other coin could just pump and dump unexpectedly. Any one choosing other cryptocurrencies aside Bitcoin should be experience enough and try investing with little percent of their income so they can't lose everything in a second.

With the way everything is heading it would be smart to educate the younger generation on best practices in crypto. But they probably won’t just like they sdon’t actually teach you prepare you for the real world they just want you to go get a job like everyone else. It would be nice if they actually gave you some useful skills ands taught kids the ins and outs of crypto

Dunno any government or education system that only wants to train people to be employees instead of starting businesses or becoming entrepreneurs. I am sure of one thing, billionaires and the rich from every part of the globe are products of that same system.

Oh please. Just because schools don't teach the stuff you think is useful doesn't mean the education system is just trying to churn out employees. And education isn't there to teach you everything or guarantee you a future.

What's the real upside of introducing crypto to the schools? Why teach kid about speculation when financial literacy and critical thinking are far more useful in the real world?
