Would accomplishing this course allow you to have some expertise over Cryptocurrency Investments? Is it going to be applicable in business or financial sectors? Most people nowadays consider first before getting a course whether it may be applied in real life or if its good for getting a job. Not everyone has the luxury to simply take a course out of pure interest. What are the job opportunities for getting this course?
In my country, fintech startup companies has been starting to rise and there's no specific area of study required for you to work at such companies but coming from IT would give you an edge. Perhaps such course would aid to areas like these since these businesses revolve around the said course.
I guess the Course title is self-explanatory, isn't it? And, you would assume that if they're telling the truth, then the answer is "yes" to all your questions (check out the programme details, why don't you?).
Also, everyone has the luxury to take courses out of pure interest. Last I checked, learning was open to anyone who has internet. You don't have to pay for this particular LSE course.
If you think education is only for job opportunities, then maybe you misunderstand the point of learning.
I agree, so many fintech start ups coming up and very few of them have actual blockchain understanding. Have you seen some of the interviews and AMAs with some of these CEOs? Some can be shockingly inept. Perhaps that is part of the problem? That they actually only have some IT understanding but no actual programming or economic understanding (like this LSE course supposedly gives)?
