The lack of financial education in general is a worrying problem. We teach students about literature, maths, science, ... and we tell them that those are the things they need to know in life. Yet usually, the largest single expense they will have on their lives is a house, and that normally comes with a mortgage. Yet, only a few schools will tell them what should they be expecting, the risks and the consequences of such a contract.

Bitcoin and alts is another case in which people are carefully kept in ignorance by the governments and lobbies.

What can we do to make more people interested in economy and finance and to better educate the youth so that they don´t get ripped-off?

Why would it be the government's responsibility to teach anyone about something it didn't create, doesn't control, and doesn't endorse as a currency or payment eco system? Basic financial education like the obligations of credit and home ownership would not entail education about Bitcoin or cryptocurrency. There's no sinister plot to "keep people ignorant" by the government about crypto, there's just no mandate for that type of thing to be taught because it's not anything the government controls.

Well, we do not really control the desire of the youth on what field of mastery they are interested to. The government only provide regulations base on the department which handle the fields of education. As far as i know, the subjects and units, depending on the course are merely identical globally. But of course there are countries that requires greater fields, and offers higher educational qualities. Finance, marketing techniques, and other basics in economy are usually part of the minor subjects of any course. It could provide some related studies on digital currencies.

Bitcoin is the solution because of the capabilities. In bitcoin it can support your financial education and your needs in school. This currency is a great provider in all wants on school such as tuition fees, miscellaneous and other fees of the field.
