It is.
But, it is not that easy to just change the traditional curriculum.
You see, professors and teachers have studied those for years and they are used to it.
Changing that will mean they will need to study it too which might take most of the time.
Understanding how it works and being updated to the current news is a difficult task instead of just doing what is traditionally done.
It still depends on the mentor though. If he is willing then he could insert those but that means eating some of his time and he or she could get in trouble once the management knew what he or she is doing.
Topic: Cryptocurrency Should be subsubject in Economy - page 2. (Read 257 times)
It seems to me that first of all we need to understand what conscience, morality, goodness, love and other aspects are, which are the basis of everything. Yes, economics is important to do something in this material world. But what's the point in economics when people are unhappy?
Therefore, the economy and cryptocurrency should be studied only as something secondary.

In this time of Crypto Revolution there are some issues supposed to be studied and in my Opinion cryptocurrency supposed to be subsubject when teaching economy this will add many benefits in this revolution.
Well, crypto related literature is not just a sub-subject in my country, because some Universities are already offering a blockchain course and crypto related, we’ve already started the revolution and on time like this, its really good to start learning cryptocurrency. The Economics subject is too broad, and its good if crypto course are different from that subject but on the same department is fine.
There are already some universities blockchain program but i dont think that we will see crypto in economic textbooks due to low temp of their devolopment
With the increasing adoption of blockchain in various sectors, such as finance, public service, automotive, and all other industries, of course, the demand for blockchain programmers will increase in the future. In addition, there is an industrial revolution 4.0 which is identical to the robotic and AI industries with the loss of geographical boundaries, cost-saving, no intermediaries, secure services, and programmable money and all of these characters are in blockchain technology. So the demand needed to fill the position of the developer blockchain will increase.
It's just that, just being introduced now in the course will be a little late and there is a possibility of graduates not being able to catch the momentum. It should also be remembered that to face the 4.0 revolution not only the ability and understanding of the blockchain and technology are needed but cognitive emotional intelligence education is needed to be able to compete with robots, the IQ of AI/robotics may be high but there is complex problem solving involving feelings and sensing that cannot be replaced by AI. And it needs to be respected by some countries whose education is based on technology, so to bring the blockchain as a course at universities depends on the government.

There are some universities who are exploring bitcoin and cryptocurrencies under disruptive innovation, which has long been a topic in economics of contemporary times. For the mean time, universities would be exploring the blockchain and its applications rather than the core concept and value of cryptocurrencies since the former has more useful and widespread applications in different industries. Give it a few more years and for sure, universities would employ the idea into their curricula.
Bitcoin entered into education subjects is a positive and good thing for students to get to know more about the cryptocurrency digit currency and the blockchain technology used by bitcoin.
Studying Bitcoin on economic subjects must be done correctly in accordance with their portion, there is no need to study it too deeply and in detail, for an introduction the teacher only needs to provide a basic understanding of bitcoin, cryptocurrency and blockchain so students can know the initial picture.

That would be good if people will be taught exactly what it is. I will even suggest that the foundation/standards be based on Bitcoin/Satoshi's whitepaper and verified intenet posts. Teachers/educators can then build on the foundation & keep upcoming/future teachers from derailing from the real ideas behind Bitcoin/crypto.
There are a lot of schools right now accepting the speech or talk or most commonly a seminar to the students and before I already experience having a workshop of blockchain and cryptocurrency many people in my country now are using this kind of transaction and also they are spreading the use and benefits of the cryptocurrency today, and it is a piece of good news because they introduce the use or crypto it the fastest way to make more earnings and use this on their future transactions. But still, need them to be more aware because there is money involved in the world of crypto and you just need to take care of it
I'm sure it comes up here and there, considering full courses from reputable universities already exist, but I don't know if it actually has enough economic impact (for now at least) to be tackled head-on by econ students. It's still incredibly young (on top of that, it only really entered the world stage like what, 2 or 3 years ago?), and even top economists don't really agree about its place in society -- heck we can't even conclusively say if it's a good hedge against traditional finance or not, even in our current crisis.
I don't think there's a crypto revolution going on either, since it's looking like majority of its users are still speculators who don't care for the technological aspect too much. Real world usage would need a big boost before we see any major changes to public perception.

I like this way of thinking. Maybe making cryptocurrency studies a obligatory subject isn't a perfect idea, but I'm sure a lot of students will be happy to study it. And of cause, some universities offer blockchain and cryptocurrency courses (just for examples Cornell University, Duke University, Georgetown University and MIT) 
I don't think curriculums of high schools, colleges, graduates, etc, are quickly going to implement that unless the Economics teacher has data of how it affects the current economy today, especially with what's happening.
I find it amusing to have it as a subject. Hence I agree that it's best to be included in a subject to understand the potential of having sustainable social and economic growth or is a threat to the economy.
