Is there any proper way a kid can learn how to build on the blockchain? I have a very smart kid who knows way too much about computer software and hardware, I believe that exposing him to blockchain technology is better since it's the future with the way things are going right now, where do you think I should start.

Regarding this question, I first want to ask you are you giving your ideal to a 10-year-old child?
99% of us are ordinary people, who want to do a good job, or are very powerful in a field, this person must be gifted, or have this gene. If not, a 10-year-old should do what he loves and enjoy childhood. personal opinion.

you might just want to introduce your kid to cryptocurrency/blockchain, no need to quickly teach him about technicalities, I guess what I am saying is that it would be best for your child to become familiar with cryptocurrency first before going any deeper. also, I suggest you highly consider what jackg wrote on how you are going to go about teaching your kid.

We can teach him casually and adapt to his understanding of cryptocurrencies that he already knows, I think there is no obligation to require children to understand crypto unless he has an interest in learning crypto, but we can use youtube media to introduce cryptocurrency through animation and we must accompany him to explain so that he easily understands the basic knowledge of cryptocurrency/blockchain.

Not only is he intelligent, but if the material you plan to teach him is worthwhile given his age of ten, he will likely find it engaging. But I doubt that his brain is capable of handling blockchain technology any more effectively.

My immediate recommendation to you is to let your child focus on schoolwork first and also let him or her enjoy childhood activities, i.e., playtime, rather than adding more work to them because you want them to grow up to be wonderful people. If the child is on your side and seeing you doing a stuffs like and wants to learn about about it also, it will be better for them than if you just chose to expose them with effort because alot of children nowadays always complain that they doing what their parents choose for them. The child only needs love right now, therefore it's important to pay attention to what love is doing.

I also have a ten year old, but still know nothing about programming, and although he is interested, I have not yet found a teacher to teach him to learn it systematically. I tried to introduce him to Bitcoin, but he didn't seem to understand it. In the end I gave up.

I believe that a ten-year-old child can be interested in programming and be so advanced because I know a 16 years boy of my own, who is a generous in cryptocurrency. And in addition to the advice in the comments, I will say this: make sure that he or she is sufficiently aware of financial literacy and cyber security before starting to study blockchain. Children at his age are extremely vulnerable to scammers because they don't know how to deal with it yet.

We must provide assistance to guide children to know blockchain knowledge properly because even adults can be influenced by scammers if they do not have basic investment skills. So if a child has an interest in blockchain then it is very special and we must support to lead to basic knowledge that is friendly to learn according to his age.

I don't argue with the fact that it is necessary to maintain his interest in technology. A lot has already been saying about this, but already experienced forum users take internet security for granted, so they don't talk about it. And on the example of my brother, who by the age of 10 had collected all the viruses of the world on a PC, I understand that this is an important aspect

I guess it is too early for a 10-year-old kid who enters at an early age with the world of blockchain most likely that kind of mindset focus to development and enjoying with their friends if you teach at an early age there's a chance he will not enjoy those things afterwards or get tired and drained easily, just give him an idea about the blockchain if he gets curious more that's the time you can guide and by that you bought get learned through each other, sometimes because we have a late come in with cryptocurrency we would like to push other people at their age to secure with their future already.

Before exposing the young child to such in real life, let him be for the time being and enjoy his impressionable age with his age group. If the youngster is as interested in hardware and software as you claim, he will eventually reach the stage where he will learn about blockchain technology on his own. Your support will now act as a guide for him when he eventually begins this. If you expose him to the blockchain too much right away, he might start thinking more like an adult than a child, which will affect how he interacts with other kids in society and push him to think outside of his comfort zone, which if unchecked could have negative effects on him.

I think learning the kid the history of Bitcoin and blockchain creation, crypto wallet and there's some coding class that was created for kids within the range of 10 years, I think this will be helpful for the kid to start his blockchain journey since coding is used to program website, applications, almost every things and technology we use every day.

Exposing him is good enough at his age but teaching him is not already the perfect time to do it.
Of course, learning blockchain at that very young age is great but for a 10-year-old, I'm not sure if he already has an interest in doing it. But what you did to him (exposing) might develop such thing (interest) which later on could lead to curiosity and will start asking you. Perhaps, it was an indication but yes, we can't expect too much from his age to seriously invest his time in this stuff, however, it was at least he already have some introduction about blockchain trechnology.

Agree with this exposing a 10 year old child in crypto or in blockchain then It is okay because when they grow up they have already knowledge about blockchain. but teaching in that stage of their age then all I can say is that when you teach in 10 children then for sure not all will interested maybe there's a few but not all as we all know that children at the age of 10 some of them still have a mindset of playing because they are not matured enough.

Hmm, while it is entirely possible, I do think that the kid would encounter some difficulties understanding the complexities of the blockchain techonology.

Rather than teaching him about the blockchain, my best advice would be to teach him the value of money and on how to store it. In addition, introduce to him the basics of investing money by storing it so that he/she may have the idea on how to properly manage their resources.

While you are not directly teaching your kid about the blockchain, you are somehow indirectly helping him/her understand the basic finances that would build his/her foundation on understanding on how money works and its value.

Bringing such a smart kid into blockchain tech is really a good ideas because if he properly acquires all this knowledge he could be something else in the future and I believe we are building a strong kings for the next generations to come and if proper knowledge is not well impacted to them then there could be some loopholes in time to come. So for now I would advise you to start with him on just introductions as time goes he will picked interest and started flowing free, this will also give him the edge to source for materials online even without you asking him to do.
Is step by step do not bug him with much task or more class about the industry as there are lot for him to learn and study couple with his age so no need to rush him to learn.

Calm down there is no need for now, definitely he will learned so why the rush? Things are learned gradual not in rush. If you want to teach him start from here, give him your monthly salary to hold, if he managed it well for you then, you can introduce him to the blockchain. I am rely fading off of this kind threads. How old is the kid? Allow the very small kid to mature. I doubt if this story is a true story, because there is no way a kid of 2-3 years knows computer software and hardware very well. How?

To here is time for everything on Earth, why do you want to fast forward the kid's life. But if you want to continue it is your child, you know better.

Thank goodness you have a smart child, let him do something he likes. As a 10 year-old don't direct him too much into something that's hard to understand. Know what he likes, don't force the child to understand something using a way that is not in accordance with his learning style.
One of the reasons why children are lazy to study can also be because they do not like pressure from parents, children who get pressure to learn something that is difficult to understand has a negative impact on the welfare and success of children in the future. Motivating children to do something new in their lives should be done slowly, but not to the point of making children depressed, anxious, and restless.

At ten a child should focus more on his school work and building inter-personal relationship. Currently the world is facing so much violent behavior because most parents are raising their children as robots. We want our children to be the next Elon Musk, hence we are putting pressure on them to become gurus in different fields.They grow up programmed to become financially successful but lacking emotions and compassion.

Although there are some exceptions because some children might be exceptionally gifted and have interest in learning blockchain. But it might be improper to preoccupy a child with the complexities and dynamics of blockchain technology. At this time a child should be playing around with friends and doing some other activities that he enjoys. I am sure computer studies is part of every primary school, let the child keep learning from the the the school's scheme of work until he gets to 15years when he might become mature to understand complicated computer packages.

Blockchain is just a programming paradigm. If a 10 y.o. never wrote any code, they should learn to program first, which will take a few years, and then they could do something with blockchain, although the question is what? There's nothing cool that you can do with blockchain in real world, unlike fields like AI or game development. The most useful thing for the world a person interested in blockchain can do is contribute to Bitcoin and its ecosystem, but that requires lots and lots of experience and talent.

If your child already has an interest in computers, there is a high chance that sooner or later he will pick an interest in bitcoins and blockchain. Your major job as a parent is not to rush the child into what you think will be the future but to guide them carefully after you've watched them pick their interest, that is good parenting. Don't be too much in a hurry to force your child to learn about Blockchain to the detriment of the years where you are supposed to help them develop their interests.

An introduction to blockchain for them in the most friendly manner can be thoughtful but do not in any way put them under any form of pressure.
