Addressing the future, cryptocurrency such as bitcoin should be taught in schools. This is why I did innovate a basic strategy as my research to used base numbers in cryptographic algorithm.
However, the computer is there to compute the numbers. But still, learners should be able to know the manual computation and how it increase and decrease according to its equivalent value.
In addition, this will make the new evolution of numbers of Mathematics.
I create some months ago a similar topic about this argumentation since I believe that anyone should receive education in blockchain and related technologies! Let's see what happens in the next months/years, meanwhile some free courses are offered in certain countries!
Blockchain and related technologies are the Future. Libra is just another confirmation for that theory (if needed), but for sure the biggest one we have ever seen in these days.
I think that Governments of developed Nations MUST add a blockchain course to the basic education of any Citizen... starting from elementary schools, and why not, with some basics concept also in nursery.
A young brain in it's primordial state is the base for any further development. Plus everyone should have this education, like an essential human right.
What do you think?
