Indonesia is one of the countries in Southeast Asia wherein rapid economic growth can be seen. People in the country easily grasp these concepts, and are developing rapidly in the fintech space. It's not a surprise if they are urging the new generation to learn cryptocurrencies at all given that the said space is relatively young and is ripe for the taking. These young ones will excel in the space if given the right amount of education, and if there are mentors that are willing enough to share their knowledge to them.
It's high time that countries teach the younger generations to be more aware on money matters, not only in crypto but also in economics. Back in my day, I had to learn everything from scratch, and I'm just figuring a lot of things just now as an adult when I should have known these way earlier.
It is common among these so-called crypto analysts or specialists to use Bitcoin as a tool for publicity. Popel will be told that they will be taught how to invest or use Bitcoin but at the end, a shitcoin will be introduced and people will be cajoled to invest in them. I once attended one of these Bitcoin conferences and we were told to buy an altcoin that would make us rich in four days. I immediately knew that it was a scam project.
That is why the community should also help monitor the progress on these projects, and help put a stop to it right even before it taints the mind of the learners. It's highly likely that people are only using buzzwords and crypto to gain the attention of other people, then eventually use that against the same people they swore to help. Though because of that, people who are genuinely wanting to help are starting to feel a little bit disheartened because of the actions of a few people as they are also scared of being tagged as scammers due to their initiatives.
It's only the same community who will help build its next great minds that will represent them, so better be involved on these initiatives and be one of the first ones to put a stop to it if it's being used for nefarious intentions.
