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

I'm sure they talk about it. But not into too many details. Actually, my girlfriend told me that they spoke about Bitcoin in their Informatic class.

If somebody will ask or speak about Bitcoin , ofcourse somebody will start to speak about it or ask . I dont think its needed to talk about bitcoin in Schools/University . Currently its just Speculation in my opinion , everybody wants to earn money and take a note that almost everyone talking about Price Predictions and asking when we will get back 20k per BTC . Remember that like 1 year ago , Bitcoin was at 1k USD . In 1 years time what changed so much that BTC price did x20 ? Ok Futures Came , News Fomo . Remember That future markets dont bring new money in BTC , but speculation does . If somebody Short BTC on Futures with big money . Whats keeping Futures Company from pushing BTC price UP in exchanges till short Contract got closed ? Thats how i see it at the moment . But ofcourse we all can earn from this if we make a right decision

I live in India and every new technology comes very late in my country. Of course, the government is well aware of this cryptocurrency system and so the income tax and banks. But do the colleges and school an aware of Bitcoin yet? No, they are not. Some days ago I asked my history teacher that a new cryptocurrency is going to take over the world and this told me that it is just a scam. So it proves that they are clearly on a bed of what it is. But I have heard that some institutes accepting Bitcoin as a payment so I am sure that they are teaching Bitcoin in there colleges and Universities.

New technology comes late to India??? No way! I thought most of the IT developers are from India, working for the biggest IT companies like Facebook. They seem to be very advanced! Other thing is that a lot of people are so pure that can barely afford a computer

Economics is the study of scarce resource and how to proper utilize scarce resources.While two types of economics micro and macro,Micro deal with study of individual and macro deals the study of whole.

Bitcoin pertain in micro economics study it deeply and find ways how to meet the demand to increase the supply.

You have to get what you want your own way.

I always believe in the quote "Do it with passion or not at all". In my opinion, its a bad idea, i mean no matter how good and promising Bitcoin is, if one is not interested then its a waste of time for them, though i think free elective will do, so that the people who are interested in Bitcoin can take classes and know more about it.

I think so. Bitcoin and cryptocurrency in general is being talked about everywhere so i also believe students in economics are talking about bitcoin too but since it is not n the curriculum yet i dont think it being discussed in the class by the instructor.

W12 – Blockchain protocol

That could be a great help to the students if this will be included in the economics class but as long as the government will not support the cryptocurrency that could be impossible to happens.
Anyway, All of the reading materials about bitcoin are available on-line, to those willing to learn about bitcoin they can google it.

Bitcoin has been in the trend over the years. It has placed itself in the bookmark and able to prove its worth. New innovation and new thing to follow. I believe Bitcoin has been the talk of the town right now. Even economist are talking about in. In terms of economic classes, bitcoin is being discussed and studied because it gives students and even teachers the curiosity on what it is.

In my econ classes, bitcoin has been mentioned quite a bit in terms of speculative bubbles. They always say that it is a bit risky to invest on cryptocurrencies and that in the long run, it will only be not profitable.

That's a great idea, so far I believe Bitcoin is nowhere in any discussion on Economics class in any country but It would be great to incorporate it in the future so our future generation will be equipped in Bitcoin because I know Bitcoin is the future.

Blockchain, including Bitcoin, was in my education in 2016 under the course called International Financial Markets. I studied Business Administration (now called Finance & Control) at The Hague University in The Netherlands.

I graduated in 2017 and the teamleader of my education mentioned it shortly again during his speech at the graduation, to keep an eye on this development.

It is also good to educate students in the econ classes about cryptocuries. so they can later become experts in managing the financial strategy in the household or agency

Yes, we can expect some good results if we will teach cryptocurrencies in economic class and make them knowledgeable about this thing because this can be the future that they can rely on and they can just get a lot of progress through this thing and be one of the rich people because of the cryptocurrencies.

In the modern economy, the role of money in harmony with its increasing function, Money is no longer merely as a medium of exchange, but also functions as a unit of measurement or a measure of value, the accumulation of wealth,
Talking about bitcoin is a common thing,
because of its increasing popularity day by day,
With the advancement of technology that exists today there is the term digital transaction, where people can make the transaction without having to carry money anywhere.

Upon the educational level bitcoin is used a little. Whether it's a economic class or other classes doesn't matter and there are several institution where students are making their thesis on cryptocurrency. I came to know about this through one of our forum member who often conduct survey for his master's thesis.

Actually, I had a friend in Senior high school who use Cryptocurrency as their topic and they find it hard to conduct since it was a new trend. Also, data that are related to Bitcoin is insufficient therefore using it as a topic is difficult. However, we cannot discover, solve or explain something without starting a research or study. This is a great challenge and fulfillment to the researchers if they will succeed so that we should support these studies.

Basically, bitcoin will completely transform your ECON classes as you know it. It disperse itself in all subjects of how economies work currently and they have never been based in a deflationary mechanism such as cryptocurrencies.

It's going to be so much fun.

Having Btc in economics class can somehow help and teach the student on how to deal with currencies. It is helpful and has great advantages since students would learn earlier about trading as well as investing. Just like people who are already using btc, in the future, students will also be able to do so.

Bitcoin's popularity grows every year and I think there will be a time that bitcoin will be discussed in each class. If its not possible, maybe they can create a group or school organization who helps students learn more about bitcoin. It will help those kids to save money to invest on bitcoin. Maybe those kids can recruit their parents to invest on bitcoin or they can ask their parents to invest in behalf of them. It feels good to know if bitcoin will be discussed at school. This will remove all of the negative news about bitcoin. Awareness can actually kill those fake news about bitcoin.
