Before crypto teaches in schools/colleges as a curriculum, they need to ask their government because some countries do not accept crypto, which can make a contradiction between schools/colleges and the government. If their government allows that, schools/colleges can start teaching their students about crypto in their curriculum, but the lesson will be a basic thing about crypto.
But as the internet connection is available in many places and people can access the internet easily, they can learn more details about crypto to get more lessons. Maybe the students should know about the investment that crypto offers to them to use some money to invest in crypto and prepare for their future.
Topic: Cryptocurrency must adapt in schools/colleges curriculum - page 4. (Read 583 times)
For me if schools and students adapt bitcoin there's a advantage and disadvantages and what i would like to share here is the disadvantage in my personal opinion since we all knows how good bitcoin is to all users.. So it goes like this, in my view if students learn how they can make money with bitcoin such when it comes investments or trading, for sure there's a high possibility that some of them will not go to school after that.. I mean schools will be useless, because we go to school to have a good future right? So what if those students sees that their future were in the crypto space?.. We all knows how many workers out there that decided to resign because they choose bitcoin because of how much money they can get from it as well compared to their previous work.. So there's a possibility some of the students will do the same especially those lazy people.. Lol just saying. 
Honestly, I think it's too early to do this. At least, often children are simply not yet ready to perceive such information and can simply spend money.
Crypto is bigger than that. You can't learn everything about crypto currencies in one semester. There should be colleges that devoted themselves to teach about crypto.
Crypto is a profession now. Like being a doctor. o taking a few crypto classes won't suffice. You need at least 4, maybe 5 years of education to learn everything about crypto. (that won't be enough neither probably)
When you graduate from the crypto school, you'll be a cryptomaster that's able to code his/her own crypto currency under a few hours.
I can already see this happening.

You're talking about educating developers here, not introducing kids to the basics of what Bitcoin is. And do you really think we need another generation of shitcoin creators to try to get rich that way? Such things already exist, and it is not necessary to study for 5 years for someone to make their own coin, you can learn it in a few months - and the proof of that is more than 10 000 listed coins/tokens. Should I even say that 90% of these projects are completely meaningless and have no purpose?
I don't know if this topic is already tackled but I want to know your random opinions.
What happens if Bitcoins will be adapt in schools especially in college level?
For me it will be advantage for every students who will encounter regards Bitcoins . Since we are now living in a modern world we encounter a lot of currency specially Bitcoins. I think it's better to have a lesson about Bitcoins in the Home of school learning so that the teacher and students both learned in currency which is Bitcoin . If ever this thing tackled in the school it will be educated and expand the knowledge of Bitcoin so they will know more and also to avoid scam
What are the best for beginners between Hodl and invest?
For me I will choose investment even if it takes time and very risky but the profit you recieve will make you satisfied. We all know that we won't be successful if we've not encounter many struggles we neet to be patient and disciplineed then the victory is ours. Warren Buffett says “We don’t have to be smarter than the rest. We have to be more disciplined that the rest."
Does the government allows Bitcoin to be tackle in school?
In my observation not all will agreed, if the government support Bitcoin it is a big help to us to know more and expand our knowledge and we all know that bitcoin give us a good thing. We can earn through investment. If someone afraid of taking risk then they can hodl thier currency until the price goes up
Does Education in Cryptocurrencies is the best way to avoid being scam?
Yes absolutely teaching about Cryptocurrencies and security in our account is the best way to avoid and prevent scam so it is better to had an education in Bitcoin in the school specially to that student and teacher who did not know about Bitcoins cause , in our world right now are more
Cryptocurrencies. It gives us benefits an awareness on how to secure our account our personal information cause we don't know people beside us so it's better to be wise men.

I don't expect schools to be starting their curriculums with a few crypto topics, and that's because there is still a wide division between cryptonians and the rest of the world.
Without full backing from governments this won't take off at the level proposed, and quite understandably so. While there are opportunities, there are also a large number of scams and some can even argue that crypto is more like gambling. A topic which opens up quite a few different genres on the subject, and you can start to see why there will be anti-arguments to teach children about something so high-ended in the field of economics.
To date, crypto is much an option for those who want to learn and educate themselves on and it seems to me that it will stay like this for sometime.
Yeah I think this is a pretty solid idea. I have long held that both schools and universities fail to do a very good job preparing people for the world of finance. As a financial advisor who meets with people daily to discuss their finances I can tell you that it is lost upon the vast majority of people.
What happens if Bitcoins will be adapt in schools especially in college level?
I fear it may be perceived as some sort of endorsing (i.e. safe) and even more kids - too young to understand how things work - may end up putting all their "lunch money" into this and, most of them, buy high and sell low.
Bitcoin, even bitcoin holding, is not easy, especially for young and impatient.
I don't want to say that teaching Bitcoin at college would be a bad thing, but the approach is very important. If done properly, it has the potential to be good, but I fear that in most cases it won't be done properly.
Also, most certainly, a certain degree of financial education is a must before introducing Bitcoin.
What are the best for beginners between Hodl and invest?
You should avoid both of them if you're just a beginner [assuming that you meant to say "trading", instead of "investing"]; even hodling has its own risks!- Doing either of those things as a newcomer is quite similar to jumping in a manual truck, without having any prior experience in driving a manual car [you need to learn the basics first].
Does Education in Cryptocurrencies is the best way to avoid being scam?
No, it's not [for the most part]! 
Well, this has been many topics relative to this thread asking cryptocurrency must add to school as a subject.
Perhaps this will happen if crypto is legal in your place like in El Salvador that they have legal tender on crypto and it could be added to the school. But what I think this could be suitable in Economic subject --what do you think?
However, I don't even surprise if one day there is a school that adopts cryptocurrency and educates people on how it will work, for sure no will get scammed in the future.

It seems that for majors related to computers and IT studying blockchain and crypto can be a special course. I don't know if there is a campus that includes this as a subject or not. but i think it is very possible and necessary . considering the development of crypto around the world. and yes Education about crypto is very useful. from a scientific and financial perspective.

....
so it's better to be wise men.
I don't know what part of the crypto lesson is right to teach to avoid scams. In fact, crypto fraud schemes are generally no different from fiat scams. It's just that the potential happens more often because crypto is still relatively early.Does Education in Cryptocurrencies is the best way to avoid being scam?
....

But, I like the last statement, being wise is very difficult even for academically educated people.
I agree more if emotional education is more appropriate to avoid fraud. Most newbies who enter today because of the influence of the hype and the desire to get rich quick so they put aside independent research at the beginning of their entry.
I am looking in this to happen in my country because i wanted to enroll my Son in this course if given a chance as He is showing interest in my crypto activities and even asking most of the time on how is this and how is that.
also like playing crypto related games like Axie and mir4 .
maybe having this in schools will open doors not only for the student also for the whole community as the new chance of learning and profiteering might enter their lives with this .

It's too early to say school adding Bitcoin or cryptocurrency to the curriculum but maybe they will just insert bits it on economics class. It's only in college that I learn investing and that HODL term was not among that was taught
but most probably in computer-related classes, there will be blockchain programming which may include the languages like Solidarity. If adoption really will spread which in every transaction locally is done through crypto, ED will make it mandatory for each to learn how blockchain works even for grade school.
The more that Bitcoin and the blockchain can go mainstream, the more there will be interest on it from the academe sector. I understand that there are already schools which include the topic of the blockchain technology and Bitcoin into their curriculums...and I am sure that there can be more as time goes on. Maybe on the 20th anniversary of Bitcoin, we can already see it being discussed openly in many prestigious and progressive schools all over the world. Education is always the key to more adoption though education is never limited to the confine of schools but everywhere especially here online and even in this forum. The benefits of having Bitcoin discussed in school is it adds another layer of legitimacy especially in the eyes of those who are still associating Bitcoin with scams and the dark web.
I don't know if this topic is already tackled but I want to know your random opinions.

This will bring more light for their future and also in crypto market because those youngster is the future of the world.What happens if Bitcoins will be adapt in schools especially in college level?

there are some schools i heard specially in US that already adopted Blockchain in their university so Bitcoin might not bring any difference?Quote

It is the best for them to be ready facing the world, but not necessary to save them from scamming.
I was even having a thought if Bitcoin can be area of specialization to student who studied economics since Bitcoin is becoming more popular everyday and how the young people are embracing it. It would be nice if our school system can adopt Bitcoin in the university/ colleges because Bitcoin is adding value to the world.
There are already some courses that will teach you regarding cryptocurrencies and blockchain courses but are only limited to some sites. You can look at the lists here: https://learn.saylor.org/course/view.php?id=468 and learn how they effectively teach people about it.
I'm sure if you follow the step-by-step guide, you would have an idea of how they will be in schools.

Yes, I do remember the same concept of thread like this before here in forum, it was already long ago but this kind of discussion were very relevant to be discuss because as the technology keeps on improving and developing into a higher level of intelligence then it's a must to make it one of the subject in school.
My curiosity brought me to this topic. I am thinking how about the department of Education will introduce and include this to their curriculum many people will be oriented and more knowledgeable in the word of cryptocurrency .
If could someone said that bitcoin is illegal then the knowledgeable person can explain and correct them by giving more knowledge.
Well, financial education is almost non-existent in schools for many countries in the world. In those countries schools and colleges are build to create workers. So they would teach risk management. I personally believe, riak management is something that is needed before they move to teach about cryptocurrencies.
But I believe many universities in first world countries have cryptocurrencies and blockchain in their curriculum. But that is yet to be seen in third world countries, unfortunately!
