I do not think that for the study of cryptocurrencies it is necessary to allocate some new subject in schools. I think that it is better if it will be like a course for example in computer science, probably there it will be much more harmonious and appropriate.
But remember that not only those who studied computer science are doing bitcoins today. We are in the age of computer, and hereby, we need to also upgrade the learning of educators.
This is so, but personally I can not imagine how people can be well versed in cryptocurrencies, without basic knowledge of computer science. Of course, there are self-taught, but their share is relatively small, especially among developers.
