You are more mistaken than those who are having the idea of teaching bitcoin to elementary school students. They haven't even perfected their reading and writing skills, how can they even think of getting rich? They're just kids exploring the world and there's so much they need to learn and not finance is always an issue at any age. It is a foolish and short-sighted idea to think that it is possible to include bitcoin or financial education in the elementary school curriculum.

If you want to make money, you must first learn to be human, don't turn children who only know money without morality.

If you'd knew those kids nowadays then you might get it that those ideas come at early age.
Specially when kids receive Smartphones to keep them busy. Typical 1st world behavior.

What I want to ask is are you married and have children? Because I see you're pretty confident when you say elementary school kids have got the idea to get rich. Or are you just stating your opinion? They use smartphones proficiently, or they will imitate us saying they will do our work, they will invest in bitcoin to make a lot of money...But the fact that they understand what they are saying is what matters. I have 2 kids, and I know what kids that age want and need. I know what's good for my kids at that age, and certainly not bitcoin or teaching them money.

I agree with you, kids at such young age, only follow what they see from us adults and to assume that they fully understand what they are saying and doing is a major no. Kids, at the age being discussed, should be focused on learning basic skills (reading, writing, doing maths) and having fun. Why are you going to introduce something that is far beyond their cognitive skills to understand? Don't give such responsibility and pressure to kids, especially about money, you are basically taking their childhood fun away by doing that.

Kids are more attracted to things that they see physically but since Bitcoin is a virtual currency in this case kids will be less attracted to it. so it will not be possible to convince kids about Bitcoin very easily. But everyone reaches a certain age when they are most attracted to things that are new to them so informing them about Bitcoin at that time can be a good strategy to convince them about Bitcoin very easily. this attitude I think starts when a person is 14-15 years old. So from this point of time informing someone about Bitcoin can be of great help to make it easier for them to understand
