Gotta go back to school to make sure.  Grin
But I dont really think so.
I dont think it is covered yet with that subject. Plus the fact that school teachers are too busy to be attached with such a thing.
Maybe they know it but it wont be allowed to be shared in the school that can cause the students to have some trouble understanding what economics is really like.
We know there is much difference with how bitcoin market is going on.

As a student of economics, I'm really hopeful that Bitcoin is becoming a profitable and valuable investment sector day by day, it has been popular in recent times not only that but also Bitcoin is getting accepted in different types of private and social stage. So Bitcoin will play an important role in the future..

bitcoin is becoming a profitable right now and many of us is make bitcoin as their investment and not sold their bitcoin for a long time. i believe that bitcoin is not for one level stage for the community but bitcoin is for every people which want to use and no matter their works or who they are, they can still used bitcoin for many purpose. i agree that bitcoin will becoming famous in the future so many people is using bitcoin to buy something or just to hold in their wallet.

It might not be the perfect time right now to include bitcoin in lectures or in course outlines because it is not yet a well known currency. There must also be a clear guide on how to introduce bitcoin properly so it wouln't create an impression of something being used for illegal activities.

I feel just like any new technology it will take some time for the school boards to come around and see the importance of being educated about not just a fad, but an important aspect of their economies future. You can see something similar happening with 3D printers. They used to be focused around a niche market of people who could afford to spend thousands of dollars to bu them but now at lot more schools( mainly universities and colleges right now) are buying 3D printers and and installing them in libraries as well as implementing basic operation and function course units into their workshop classes. Its because they recognized its importance in the future that the same should happen to Bitcoin eventually, but for the moment there is just far too much speculation and uncertainty surrounding it for schools to take a step towards it.
All that today we have a girlfriend, thanks to high technology, makes life much easier for us. The fact is that at school science is very outdated and everything needs to be sent in order to keep up with what we have today.

I'm no longer studying so I can't tell if this is ever being mentioned it class though I haven't heard any school in my country that this is included in the curriculum. It's more likely that the professor might mention it in passing or use it to illustrate a topic but I doubt that's happening now. If it's not that well known yet in America, you can just expect how many people have heard of it in a third-world country.

I suppose it would be a "trickle down", where academia start noticing it and begin talking about it in university till it gets to the point that it is being mention in high school.

Bitcoin in most economics class (at schools), is mentioned only as off-topic, it's not a part of the class content, it's just speculation for now. Would be nice to have more people talking about Bitcoins and its technology on the classes, teaching to others how BlockChain works, its story... I am one who would like to join a class about this subject, as it's hard to learn only by reading on the internet, I would prefer to ask the teacher many doubts regarding Bitcoin.  Smiley

Bitcoin has nowadays become main steam of economic development.So some business schools have started adding bitcoin in their syllabus.Bitcoin has become unavoidable nowadays because of its huge progress and its unmatchable block chain technology which were even adopted by banking sectors even though they think bitcoin as their main rival.

Do you think they are talking about bitcoin in your basic ECON class?

There are college classes that include discussions about Bitcoin. I think I heard that there are even some schools that have classes specifically about cryptocurrencies. It is something that that generation needs to learn about because it's here to stay.

Currently, not active here in our country and not part of the curriculum but teachers or professors can mentioned it. I see no problem about that.

Im not into school days anymore but I think maybe at least even by 5-10% it was being mentioned in college. Good way to spread information too especially if the teacher or professor is really a cryptocurreny enthusiast.

i think they don't because not all people know about bitcoin and they need more explain before they are understand what is bitcoin and how to use bitcoin. i think in future we can see this is happen and bitcoin is not just for economic class like we've seen before. bitcoin is for every people who wants to make real money from doing many things with bitcoin.
But that is the reason why the bitcoin will become a part of economic class. Think about it, the professor will teach it for the student to learn it. It is good for them to become aware to what is the bitcoin.

I have some friends studying economics in college. After 4 years, I asked them about bitcoin, they have absolutely no idea... I felt a relief. It means we are still ahead of the pack by a long shot. We are still early investors. By the time bitcoin is being taught in college it's already too late, but that is still years away, we have time to amass cheap BTC before it hits 5 figures.
I think there are some country that bitcoin was added already in the book and i think its already discuss here many times.. that there are some schools that actually studying cryptocurrency.
Maybe in your country still not added the bitcoin in economics books even here in my country there are still not well known currency but i heard that even elementary school teacher teaching about cryptocurrency..

Hope that it will be added soon here in my country so that bitcoin can be well known digital currency that can push the price high..

I am Economics student and so far noticed mention of bitcoin nowhere. Also, there was/is never any healthy discussion about bitcoin in my class.
But there is increasing buzz about bitcoins in other places like newspaper, ebooks, media, news channels. Etc.
Here is the front page of one of the top newspaper of my country -



I think you should start a discussion about bitcoin in your class mate. So that your teacher or your classmate will be aware on what is bitcoin and how can it help everyone specially students to earn extra and not depend on their parents for tuition fees. I think it will very good discussion and you will be at the forefront of all bitcoin related in your school. Whatyathink?
