Literally a few days ago we noticed that Scottish schools were accepting Bitcoin for payment but currently Spain's Hesperides University has introduced a master's degree. In fact the main purpose behind launching this degree is to teach about Bitcoin. As far as I know, the program that the university has undertaken will allow students to learn about the history of Bitcoin, BTC philosophy and its economic impact, etc.
The program director there said that,

This is the first time a university has taken this initiative.

Big step but I have some questions that bothered me. What was this purpose of history in Bitcoin for masters student? Why not introduce it from undergraduate so they can learn to digest everything one after the other but they decide to offer it for masters? If there is no demand in undergraduate why will people come for masters in the first place, alot of folks will be interested in the history of Bitcoin for undergraduate especially from the ones that are very curious of the tech.

My last worry on this is history are sometimes twisted to suit the interests of the writer, the teacher or the person that doesn't want things to be in accordance of the history but they way they vision it. However, if it's they are going to deliver like the way the history is, then I wish them good luck but I will pass this one, I know where to read and understand everything about the history of Bitcoin, what I want to see is the tech aspect and the use cases.
