Gaining knowledge about bitcoin is never an issue regardless of their young age, but the problem is if these young guys are actually interested to learn about bitcoin. Because no matter how you push someone to be acquainted and be educated about bitcoin, as long as he is not eager to learn, he will still become clueless in the end.
I don’t have opposition if young guys are exposed to bitcoin, if they will decide to invest, let them be but as much as possible, they should get a job first before risking into any investment. And be properly guided as well before deciding to invest.
Yes that's right it's good to teach young people about bitcoin but they need to want to learn. If they are not interested they won't understand it well. I also worry about young people investing in bitcoin without knowing what they're doing. Like they have a simple mind set buy the dip and sell in pumping they don't want yo learn the purpose of Bitcoin they just want to trade. That is okay if they are trading but thing is that they must have knowledge about which they are trading. They should learn about money and economics get a steady job and get good advice before investing in bitcoin. This will help them make smart choices and avoid problems.
From what I see, even today's investors only see bitcoin as a speculative tool, they don't take the time to learn about it and don't care what it is. What they care about is its volatility and exploiting it for profit, whether we like it or not, believe it or not but what I see is that bitcoin is only seen as a tool to make money. That's why I don't advocate introducing bitcoin into school curricula or teaching bitcoin to young children.
I am not against teaching bitcoin to the youth because they are the future of the world, but we need to introduce it to the right age group as well as have a systematic curriculum so that they do not get caught up in the games make money quickly.
This is why we see these people failing since they are over exaggerated on their thinking about getting profits from bitcoin while the fact with that is its hard to earn with it if they will come to it and trade. If they just think about that bitcoin is alternative currency for them and this coin is good for long term hold then provably that losing is less for them to experience since they are more dealing with it on a nice way.
I'm also not a fan for teaching kids about this since what I think its not a perfect time to learn about this. Their are more other things that they need to focus like finish schooling and build up their character in their community. But if they can't avoid to learn about this but they make sure that their priority is to finish their studies until college since this will give them proper security since there's lots of things they could able to do if they are college graduate. Rather than think about learning bitcoin early and earn from it since maybe there are instances that they don't need to finish college since they are already earning since this is a bad choice for them. Maybe they really earn fast if they are lucky but for sure everything is not consistent so they should be wise for their future.
