well kids like to play, so something that can bring together bitcoin and gaming

like puzzle that when solved reveal a private key for example

it is important that kids start to learn early some basic economy, at least something about income and expenditure

i heard about a new law for some countries that will make it possible(to teach them basic economy) in schools


Kids tend to learn better when taught in a young age. The problem that I am seeing is they have poor attention span and they get easily bored when lectured. Kids love to have fun and yes,learning comes in many ways so he can learn while having fun just like playing. We cannot expect them to be good at it but if you have patience in teaching, you can expect them to be good at it eventually.

This article doesn't talk about bitcoin but it got me thinking how to get kinds interested in bitcoin within the context of appropriate money management lessons. Think of we could teach kinds about it. The growth, the adoption, the inflation and retraction. The allure of the "internet money".

...what other ideas come to mind?
I do not think its good to teach kids about bitcoin, its too early. They even are learning about our regular currency. They must learn how to be responsible first in using money and in using the internet before indulging to bitcoin. Maybe when the child turns 15 or 16 above, its the time to know bitcoin.

I think kids are not time to know about the crypto's. maybe we teach in  exactly age. for now kids are teach to school to know about to read and write. if comes to exactly age me im the one who teach about to bitcoin to know him about the given opportunities in crypto. but for now im still work in bitcoin and i teach my friends and relatives.

I think it is easy to teach kids about bitcoin, cryptocurrency or digital money. In this world right now, the kids encounter cashless payment as it is. I think in a few years time, cash will be archaic to kids and we will have a hard time explaining why we need cash.

Well we can teach a kids about bitcoin by showing them how bitcoin can be used, and how bitcoin is helping people to earn profit, we should tell the kids all the good advantages of having a bitcoin and we should tell the kids that the bitcoin is can be used in the future aside on paper money.

Early for children. I do not think kids need to teach bitcoin, they have to learn to continue with real money. After that, we can teach them something about the coins because it's better to tell them that they need to focus on the crypto. kids love fun.
in fact, it is very difficult to teach them to look for bitcoin when they are under 13 years old. well, I think they need more play and study with their friends. maybe after the age of more than 13 years, they will be easy to learn this.

In my opinion kids should enjoy being a childhood. Because it is once in their lifetime. Thus, I am disagree to teach the kids about bitcoin because in that age we should enjoy and learn a things that is suitable for their age. They  should not focus how to earn or how to manage a business. They need to learn a good manners and a good characteristics which help them to build their strength and mind. Bitcoin is not their life in that age.

Kids don't need this knowledge i think. Better to teach them other more important things because they always can find everything about crypto in google without problems.

Actualy we can realy teach the young children about bitcoin,but I dont think they well appreciate if we will teach them,In there very young age they more likely interested in playing and exploiring the world.So we might teach  them bitcoin but I am.not sure if they will be interested and join bitcoin.Some kids will find bitcoin boring,but hopefully some well find it interesting too.But lets just try to teach them so they could earn and prepare for there future.


I disagree with you. Earnings with a crypto currency do not take a lot of time and children can earn money without causing damage to their studies.

I think the best way to teach kids about bitcoins is to introduce them to the games that pays in bitcoins as kids are very much addicted to games so in that case they can also have fun of playing games and at the same time they will start earning bitcoin.

It's better to let the child enjoy the heck out of their childhood first before ever playing with bitcoins. If they start out too early, maybe they'd develop some kind of nasty habit. I'd say, let the kids be kids, then when they start saving up their allowances for something they want, start giving them the lecture. Only then is the perfect time to teach them to invest on things and savings, and then eventually, Bitcoins.

No hard feelings, kids must not involved to this. You must not stop them from being a  kid, if you teach them and open their mind about bitcoin/money, they can absorb it easily and not gonna enjoy being a kid. Kids are kids, its not something you can go back if you want to be a kid. Let them enjoy being a kid and when they grow, then you can teach all about bitcoin, tell them about everything you know.

difficult to teach them about things they have not learned, good trading takes the knowledge of the world economy and politics in order to determine when to sell and buy

It won't be useful for the children to get the hang of betting utilizing bitcoin and it will be difficult to show kids about bitcoin just thing you could exhortation from them is that bitcoin cost imean bitcoin economy is an intense cryptographic money and afterward you should clarify what is digital currency and after that after that give them a short history of bitcoin and ensure that they can form sentences and knows how to answer what is the issue.

As every kid like to play, I think we can teach kids about bitcoin and bitcoin history using an PC game, I like idea about puzzles and how we can show using  this how "mining" works.  Also I think about cartoon, very important  to show  kids pluses of "holding", here will be useful story about 2 pizzas and 10,000 bitcoins, also we can try to show how bad news can react on bitcoin price.

I do not believe that teaching children what bitcoin is a good idea. Children should devote more time to education and games. You do not need to involve them immediately in adulthood

MenaPay - Crypto made easier than cash

Bitcoin is not just a simple cryptocurrency and I don't think it's a good idea to teach the children about it already since bitcoin is way more complicated than you think it is. Bitcoin has been revolutionized over the past few years and a lot of innovation has already occured which can either make it more difficult to earn from it or easier. We should be more responsible of guiding them if we are going to teach them at the young age.
