I think it's important for people to stay up to date on this sort of stuff especially since the world is evolving into a more advanced technological era. I think it was Bill Gates who said "In 15 years the people who are drinking dirty water will be using smartphones to pay their bills". Crimes are starting to take place more and more in the cyber world because people realize there's a lesser chance of being caught and it's a lot easier and if lawyers in these fields don't stay up to date on the new technology being created  they're going to be out of business sooner than later.


It's even important for a lawyers and representatives who prosecute murderers to stay up to date on this stuff. The suspect could for instance be using Bitcoin to buy items which could be traced back to the killing. Or for people who prosecute drug cases because Bitcoin, or any digital currency for that matter, could be used as a payment source to avoid detection.

I cannot help imagine that Bitcoin will be becoming the must learn knowledge one day! It is like today's computer, internet, email etc. the old and children are eager to attending this education course.
Yeah, and these lawyers better start studying their asses off because the people that get scammed in cryptoscams are going to need them, since they wouldn't learn to keep the money on their wallets even after all those incidents.

This is pretty interesting.

I'd love to know about what the content is. Is the education about how "criminals use bitcoin to conduct crimes" or is it more a true education of the system of currency that's been created.

Let's hope that the education is fair and objective.

A friend of mine told me that a btc continuing education class is offered for lawyers (ny state.)  We both thought it was funny, but at the same time, positive for btc acceptance Smiley
For the record he still doesn't understand or get btc, and was going to take the class but it is in only offered in a location that is to far away.
