I think cryptocurrency will be taught in schools that maybe when crypto has become a legitimate currency and can be received by people used for payment. Cryptocurrency will be a subject in school. but I think this takes a very long time. because most countries now still reject crypto as a currency. and only in developed countries such as Japan and America that allow crypto as a means of payment. and most people only use crypto for investment and trading tools.
When you say "legitimacy", did you mean "legalizing" it? If so, then it will lose it's freedom because to have it legalized, it has to be regulated albeit it may become the currency of the future as technology keeps growing in a very fast rate hence those generation of today should start being taught about it now so that they are not going to be ignorant about it when they get older.

She is still very young, but I think in the future she will be studied in schools so that children know about her since childhood.
Yes I know but the point is, while the cryptocurrency system is still young, the younger people now should already learn about. As the cryptos get older and so are these young people. It might be too late when they learn about it when its already highly innovated.

Yes, I think this is a good thing if the cryptocurrency will be taught in schools so that it will be more widely known, even if it is realized it certainly takes a long time because some governments prohibit cryptocurrency, we will look forward to whether it can be realized
That is right. Teaching cryptocurrency in schools will bring more awareness and there will be more people who will know about it. Who knows if one of those students today will be the future inventor of a blockchain and cryptocurrency that will bring the whole system into an even great heights but yes, it will still take time before that happens.

It baffles me why some people are just too negative about Cryptocurrency. Even when some of them makes money through it, they still find it very difficult to change their thoughts about it. Kudos to early investors in Bitcoin who believed it at the initial stage when there's no any tangible testimony.
Well, it's the lack of proper learning and awareness my friend and the technology in blockchain and cryptocurrencies is still in its infancy but how will it reach its fruition if only a few people is truly knowledgeable about it? I think we should take the pattern of how money is being taught even to grade schoolers.

Hi guys!
I'm pretty sure that many of you have been experiencing difficulty on making other people aware of cryptocurrency and how it works, right? I myself find it hard to explain it even to my own family. Once you mention it to them, the first thing that comes to their mind is that it's a scam. Can't blame them though because the news about crypto scams are always hyped in social media and believe me, even my 70 year old mom has Facebook!

Anyway, I realized that this is the case because there has never really been any formal education about it at all. We knew about it only thru word of the mouth right and we only got to learn it slowly thru experience. This said, I'm thinking, what if it's taught in schools? Perhaps just start with those taking Accountancy or Banking and Finance courses to begin with, then eventually incorporate it to Mathematics subject or whatever in High School? After all, they were able to do that with banking, right? Why not with cryptocurrency? What do you think?
I totally agree when it becomes a subject and teach the student how cryptocurrency works and on whats the goodness of earning money in here not by only earning but all of the features that crypto have. I think its better to be taught and inclined in the subject economics since cryptocurrency can help economy of a certain country.
That's right. At least include in courses related to finance. Other than Economics course, it's could also be included in other courses  like accounting, business administration and more. It's a great foundation for the future of the next generation who might be interested in investments and businesses.


Good idea, it's time for schools to provide an easy and safe way to make payments, I'm sure if the school uses crypto then there will be many benefits that can be obtained.
That's right. Not only that, they will also learn how to invest and how blockchain works with cryptos because I believe that they should be taught together. The future will be dominated by blockchain and cryptocurrencies and everyone needs to be prepared for it. It will be great to have the learning taught in school so that the younger generation already knows about it when they become adults.

The cryptocurrency taught in the school is inevitable, because now with the popularity of the blockchain, people have to give more emphasis to encryption, especially than Bitcoin, which is definitely a great creation in the history of human finance, any learning Financial people should know something about it.
,
Absolutely on point my friend and how we just wish that people in the authority thinks of it the way we do. Indeed, cryptocurrencies, not just bitcoins, will bring a new face to the financial system in the future. Surely, it will be a great tool to begin learning about it in school, cryptos and blockchain for that matter.

I think that someday it will definitely happen and schools will talk about cryptocurrency. But before that happens, cryptocurrencies must become a truly mass phenomenon. The market is still too young and tools for simple interaction with cryptocurrency are not ready for users far from technologies.
People are only interested in Blockchain technology and very few people in the school are interested in the coins in this market. I think the application of Blockchain technology is absolutely necessary as it can help our lives and if you are a passionate programmer of this technology then surely you will have a good future.
Well, teaching cryptocurrencies school, if ever it will happen, should automatically includes the learning about blockchain too because they come together all the time in my opinion and they don't have to be interested in it. They just have to learn it in preparation for the future innovation of cryptos.

I agree. Truly someday it will be part of the academic curriculum but until then, mass adoption will be hard to achieve if only a few people knows about it. While I agree that the technology for it still needs a lot of improvements, the younger generation should already learn the basics albeit of course, there's nothing we can do about it to implement it.

Crypto is an idea in my opinion whose time has come and to FasTrack mass adoption taking crypto to the ivory towers is an encouraging move. I agree it should be taught in school
Indeed it is. This is very well said. Indeed the time has come to bring cryptos to the Ivory towers. Unfortunately, those who can make it happen do not look at it that way therefore, I don't think it's going to happen any time soon. Both teaching it in schools and taking it to a higher level.

I think that in the nearest future the crypto currencies will become mass adopted and it would be a must for every university to taught about crypto. But we need governments adoption to start to taught crypto in schools and this will be a very long term process.

Exactly. The initiative to teach cryptocurrencies in schools should come from those in authority or at least they should approve it. You are right, time will come that there will be a mass adoption for it. Are they going to wait for it before they teach people about it?

I think it is reasonable. If all the universities offer a new one, Blockchain technology, the future of Crypto will certainly be great. I always wait for real news from the US and Japan. I hope the two countries will lead in the education trend on Blockchain technology.
I couldn't agree more. A new blockchain technology that will make all things interconnected including of course the cryptocurrencies will revolutionize this technology and what better way to learn about it but from schools.
You might also want to lookout for news from European countries. From what I know, they are the ones more open to the idea of teaching cryptocurrencies in school.

Definitely yes! Both the crypto coins and the blockchain system should be taught in schools. I wish I could go to school where I live, even though it's a school. But unfortunately.
I agree. Both cryptocurrency and blockchain should be taught in schools. Both has ever fast rate of changing technology and one won't work without the other so it goes without saying that the knowledge about them should come together. Unfortunately, not so many thinks of it that way.

I'm pretty sure crypto will be taught in schools in several years, not as a single subject but at least as a part of economy\banking\computer science course.
There are already teachers' initiatives who decided to give their students some info about blokchain and cryptocurrencies (I heard about this in some British schools). These courses are not obligatory, but they give the evidence of a rising interest in crypto, especially with the new generation.
Yep I think that the European countries are the one that are more open and liberated about cryptocurrencies and it's really good to know that they are at least already introducing it in school. It does not really have to be an individual subject like what you said but it's good enough to do some basic ideas teaching.

Definitely, it is a very important topic and Schools needs to spread the awareness of this topic towards students by teaching them. Because it is very essential for nowadays And adding the subject about the cryptocurrency in the syllabus will help the students to get a deep understanding of the subject. As well a student will get another option to make a career in it.
Oh yes exactly on point. The future of the cryptocurrency lies from the youth of today. If they learn about it from school now, they will be very much prepared for the time to come that the cryptos already become a permanent part of everyone's lives.

The world is changing and cryptocurrency is a very important change, nowadays the world is different than it was even 10 years ago. I believe that children should study cryptocurrencies, as this knowledge will help them in the future.

Exactly the point my friend! The world keeps changing with technology every single day and at a very fast rate. Preparing the youth of today will ensure knowledge about it when they become adults just in time when we expect cryptocurrencies to reach it's full blown technology.

when cryptocurrency is taught in schools and cryptocurrency technology is widely used in several other schools and institutes, it has become a development of the cryptocurrency world and certainly can trigger the rise of cryptocurrency prices because there will certainly be many who use and search for cryptocurrency such as bitcoin.
and now actually the technology of blockchain has been experimented with a lot and some have even set it as a learning. but there aren't many but this is a very good thing
Yes that's right. The technology keeps developing at a very fast rate and that includes the blockchain technology. I wouldn't be surprised if one day, they will invent a blockchain which will connect all transactions without exception and if that happens, the new generation needs to be prepared beforehand.

I think it is a useful thing to be teached in school too! I see it is very effective, because it targets real life apps and daily usage.. An example is the upcoming ARROUND project. This is practical because it aims to combine the augmented reality industry with blockchain. So as we may already now, there are many tuts about augmented reality, but with blockchain this will be more powerful! So, yea, crypto/blockchain is good to be teached..
Exactly! Time will come that everything that we will do will go thru a blockchain and not just cryptocurrencies. We definitely don't want the next generation to become shocked of how technology will be shocked in the next few decades so the earlier that they are taught about it, the better.
For me teaching about cryptocurrency in school is good idea because the new generation are more aggressive to know what's around them, so if they have knowledge in cryptocurrency they will become more exposed in technology which right now the world is gradually rise based in technology. In time will come If the crypto taught in School it will help us to know it better and understand it more, so that the chance of getting a scam will be lessen and those young people will be independent because surely they will involve to it and help them financially.
Very good points my friend! Yes indeed, teaching cryptocurrencies in school brings a chain of advantages in the whole financial health and economy. And because to your word, the new generation is more aggressive, then once they learned about cryptos, they could serve as ambassadors of goodwill for the cryptocurrency industry in the future.

This can happen but it certainly takes a long time to be realized, and certainly not all schools allow crypto to be taught for schools, following the course of whether this really can happen someday
Yes that's what I'm thinking too. Maybe someday, some countries that are already accepting cryptos now will probably eventually consider teaching it in school and in the long run, once it is already accepted world wide, maybe there's hope that it will become a permanent part of the curriculum but yes you are right. It's probably not going to happen anytime soon.

Yes I agree, that's another advantage of teaching about cryptocurrencies in school because the more people gets aware about it, the better for the economy and price of cryptos because more people will get  interested to invest on it.
