Topic: How to introduce bitcoin who don't know.? - page 2. (Read 285 times)

not just for a new generation, but people who currently own the industry, the company itself we can introduce because it will make bitcoin more known in society. Some universities in my country already have teachings about cryptocurrencies may just be very basic. I hope they can develop projects that currently need to be developed based on the needs of the community. it must be very helpful in introducing bitcoin in order to gain trust in society.

1. Don't you worry. The Universities that into the new trend of technology will give it a try. They only have to add it as an elective subject and include it in their curriculum. Very easy work for them.
2. This varies, with the pandemic. Most events are online and it's also accessible but there's no need for compulsory on this. Everyone can create their own events if they think that they have to do it for the people who want to learn about it. But it shouldn't be limited for trading only.
3. There are a bunch of content on Youtube about this.

1. In this day and age you don't need the universities to teach you something, the information is all out there and can easily be acquired.

2. Absolutely not. If you want to introduce a new technology and this new decentralized "currency" to people the "traders" are the last people you should look at. They neither understand nor care about bitcoin at all. All they care about is fiat and how much more of if they can gain.
Other experts such as Andreas Antonopoulos who are actually knowledgeable have been educating people for years now.

3. Youtube is already filled with garbage bitcoin related content, most of which discussing the price and some its technical aspects in a pretty terrible way. What you should have said is we need better content like what Andreas Antonopoulos has on Youtube.

It can be possible, if universities make an introductory course I think it will fair because blockchain is not limited to finances, if this is used in other fields, who knows what can happen. One example I can think of is using blockchain network for anonymous medical testing for diseases that can cause social stigma.
If we have a saturation of crypto people helding seminars left and right I think it will discourage people.
I agree regarding content creation, most creators aim for a entertainment content and having a educational is difficult especially for young adults. Not to mention, blockchain network in itself is a difficult topic that can't summarized in one video.

There is no need to make blockchain studies a compulsory subject. The technology is great, but it isn't universal to implemented everywhere and has its onw drawbacks.

Answer to 1: NOPE. As long as universities don't even teach the basics of finance such as taxes and what not, introducing Crypto in it seems unlikely. Blockchain on the other hand, is a bit of a more specialized subject imo, and could be taught in courses that actually tackle it or would tackle it, but I hardly doubt it since Blockchain is a specialized type of Database and most that are taught in universities are mostly generalized ones, at least in my case.
2. Some people do seminars and the like regularly, so I guess that's a thing already. As for their topics, I'm not particularly sure but as long as it's about crypto (not trading crypto) I guess it's fine?
3. Unlikely. YouTubers create videos for content that is actually enjoyable and the like. the majority would not sit in front of their screens and listen to you discuss something they aren't even interested in. It's like the seminars done by schools that force students to listen to them, where the vast majority of those students wouldn't even remember the contents after a few days.

All in all, I don't think there's a need to force everyone to learn it, if someone wants to learn it, sure, ask away in various forums and the like. In fact, this forum itself stands as something like a teaching ground, since a lot of people could answer various queries about crypto, and discussions could easily be made. Granted that you can sort through the number of replies a post could get though.

There are many people who don't know about Bitcoin. I am not saying it by my opinion. I just made my first topic in which I asked about it. And many of us replied positive.
 
My First Topic.

Now I am going to suggest something and also want your opinion.

1. Blockchain should be the Elective or Compulsory subject at University level.
2. Traders and the people who know about the Bitcoin should held the Events monthly and yearly basis.
3. Youtubers should make simple videos to understand the bitcoin or Blockchain. In all countries and in all languages. ( That's mean there must be a youtuber from every country)

Waiting for your suggestions.

Now I am editing my post because some are saying that Universities is not the better way.
Some top universities already added the Blockchain in courses.
I suggested that it should be in all over the world. I read this article anywhere don't know the resource.
But if I am wrong so you can turn me to a better way.

Here is a list of institutions or companies that provide blockchain courses or education. Please add another if you know other places that offer classes or training related to cryptography, cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology.
