I ALREADY know someone will say to "do it yourself", and I get the sentiment, but am primarily getting for employers - not for myself.

Personally I want to have a masters as well - as I feel my economics degree is not enough.

Basically I want to focus on the nontechnical side of cryptocurrency - so applications of blockchain, Fintech, token economics, economic policy even.

I know Bitcoin is inherently a cryptographic application and it's pretty technical so I'll likely have to learn a little bit, but economics is where my interest lies.

There's a few degrees out there and I've honestly only taken a look at two:

1. UNIC's Master program
2. This South Korean One - http://www.assist.ac.kr/MBA/Digital/curriculum_introduction.php

The reasoning behind the first one is simply the speakers there, namely Andreas.

Reasoning behind the second is a bit more deep:

- I've been studying Korean for a while now, so I think it's best to play to strengths.
- I'm bullish on Korea. I see Korea becoming a hub for crypto - just see what they're doing with Moon's Digital New Deal plans.

Again, I know the view on academic degrees in the community is not good but EVENTUALLY there will be a need for academia in Bitcoin - so please look past that stigma if you can Smiley

Thanks in advance
