Topic: Legendary act! First Bitcoin Class in history. - page 2. (Read 425 times)

As much as I wanted to be optimistic about the result of the class done by our fellow forum member, I do not think these kids will take the lesson into heart.  The audience are just 4th grader so I believe kids at this grade are around 9 or 10 years old so I believe these kids are more focused on playing and or doing their school activities.


If the lesson is done on universities I believe it will turn out well since students at this level are hungry for possible earning opportunities so they will more likely take the lesson seriously and possibly dig dipper into learning about Bitcoin. 

But whatever the result of the effort of Tuxavant is, it is always great to know that there are selfless people who love sharing opportunities even if it costs them spending their own money.

I don't know them but there are Promotional graphics which are classic and many of them are from the past, many years ago.

Bitcoin accepted here.
We love Bitcoin.

They are familiar promotional texts I have seen many times.

It's really nice seeing these old advertisements that contained WeUseCoins.org and LoveBitcoins.org. They signify whoever made the ad was a very early adopter. It's also funny to stumble across the term "bitcent", which is 0.01 BTC, and not used anymore. One bitcent back then was the same as 100 sats today. Crazy rise.

Wow, so the idea of teaching Bitcoin in school never started today? @Tuxavant is a real legend to have come up with the idea to teach students about Bitcoin when the price was even very low, and if any of those people had taken the idea so vital and even invested in Bitcoin years later, when the price of Bitcoin was still around $500-$1000, the student would have made a fortune by now. Sometimes I wish that I had someone who clearly gave me a good education about Bitcoin in 2009 or even around 2012, but rather I got to know about Bitcoin so well in 2019 when the price has already gone far. It is a profile to educate young people of this generation about Bitcoin so that they will have no regrets in the future.

depends on wether he requested for any financial incentives from them after rendering such lecture. This reminds me of someone who came to teach us about money in high school! Dude was that ideal speaker that spoke and while he was speaking it was as though a Vail was being removed from our eyes and that we were being mislead and thought nonsense in school. Everything was going just fine throughout the class up until it got to the point when he requested that we pay a certain amount of money if we are interested in the masterclass where he will reveal the deep things he hasn't told us yet. Everything he said from that point changed entirely and it almost appeared as though he is trying to extort money from us and even though what he was saying is true, it didn't make anh sense again.

Sometimes it's necessary that when you're educating people on a subject matter as this, most expecially the younger once, it's best you just feed them with the information and let it end that way. I bet that's possibly what he did cause it wouldn't even make any sense if he requested anything from them except if he adviced them to start investing into Bitcoin at that tender age or to convince the parents to use there free money to invest into Bitcoin for them.

you know, it's at this point that we've seen how far Bitcoin has come in terms of it price that we can ascertain that anyone that had the knowledge of Bitcoin prior to now and refuse investing into it made a very bad decision but at the time, we can't tell if they made the right decision or not cause it wasn't all that popular compaired to now.

Again, we aren't different from those kind of they didn't invest at the time and there are lots of people who still feel that Bitcoin is a scam and are currently waiting for a moment it will crash. It's partly a function of being ignorant of how the system works and not ready to take some form of calculated risk to invest into Bitcoin.if they had invested at the time, we aren't sure if they would have HODL it till this time or if they would have agreed to buy much of Bitcoin that would have made them millionaires at this time.

You might be surprised that many people still consider Bitcoin a scam currently. There are still people who believe that the coin is a Ponzi scheme that will soon crash. Tuxavant did good work about twelve years ago and we are celebrating him today. I am sure that a few years from now some Bitcoiners will also be remembered for their current contributions.

It will be hard to track the lives of most of the Bitcoin OGs due to the decentralized nature of Bitcoin. I guess that some of them might be rich because they kept their coins to date while others might not be because they sold early or lost interest in Bitcoin. We cannot also trace the history of people who mocked them. But I am sure many of them would regret their action because Bitcoin is now bigger than they ever thought. We cannot also determine how the effect of the Bitcoin lesson on those children except if there are testimonies from any of them who attended the class.

This forum serves as a portal for historical events and I think we really need someone to analyze old posts and create an infographic of many of the events that have not been highlighted. Thanks @OP

In the early days, the forum was much more technical and there were no signature campaigns, it was very different from now. I imagine that the OGs are loaded and have lost interest in the forum because it's so changed. About the Bitcoin haters, I don't know, maybe some changed their mind and bought Bitcoin in time but in other forums you see them predicting that Bitcoin is going to go to 0 because it is a ponzi scheme, people who have had an account for a decade or more. They don't learn.

Kids, it's hard to tell a class from 13 years ago the influence it might have had. I would imagine not much.

Of course I never mentioned it was the first but from the obvious we can say it's the first success bitcoin presentation in Grade school.

What we are talking about here is 2012, 4yrs after invention which eople might still be in doubt of it then someone came up with the idea of teaching it in Grade school which I haven't heard anyone teach bitcoin in class except for the later years.

Hell yeah!
we can start sharing this knowledges with kids, working them out for the future, we never know how well things will turn out in future.

We all only have another chance to make things better rather than regret our ignorances.

I guess nobody knows..


Did you read the entire thread? you can literally see people who are even against his idea of educating the kids on bitcoin. You can see that if such people exist in bitcoin community already then people who don't know it wouldn't hesitate to call it a scam.

Imagine someone give you a coin that is worth $0.0005 now what will be your reaction? Maybe a scam right? Shitty project right? back then that was how it looked.

But finally bitcoin is far beyond what they saw.

You found something but I read three pages of that thread and can not see anyone confirmed that it is a first class about Bitcoin.

Some forum old members can confirm it or who are curious about your information will dig more and find more to confirm this information. It's interesting information but is it correct or not, I am unsure.

I have never heard of this story before! wow  This is really a legendary act for sure.

During this times around 2012, I was in my Grade school too, I guess opportunity wasn't on my side then and geographical location was a barrier.

Wait was I in support of letting kids be kids instead of bothering them with bitcoin knowledge? Damnnnn! ignorance was kicking alot of us hard.
I guess I changed my mind from now. This is really mind blowing.

I agree that he is a legend. He was last active on the forum in 2019. I do wonder where these bitcoin OGs are and what they are currently doing. I also wonder about where the people who laughed at them when they spoke fanatically about Bitcoin, where they are currently doing. I wonder if they eventually invested in Bitcoin or are still stuck with their beliefs against Bitcoin.
As for the kids, I still have the same thoughts. How did they turn out?  Did they allow the teachings on Bitcoin to influence them? What have they been up to with regards to Bitcoin?

Why should they, is he incentivizing from them or demanding for making payment for such service rendered, sometimes we just have to take decision on our won forgetting about what others may say, because they wont do and will always discourage those interested on doing.


That's true, but as of then, still consider the way things were by that time, bitcoin value, the interest of the participants and their affordability on making investment, though we can still make such an opportunity by this time if we can invest and hold for long.

Hello community!

I have always been amazed with everything about bitcoin and I put in some time to know more about it's history. From every event that took place in bitcoin it shows it's a legendary invention.

Back 2012 when bitcoin was still around $5 dollars, one of us here, which username was/is Tuxavant, Did a legendary work in the history of bitcoin to teach bitcoin in school. He taught BTC Bitcoin in his son's school, before then he already tipped his kid's teacher with a whole bitcoin but back was just a few dollar but now with the current value i think be gave out a huge amount. https://talkimg.com/images/2024/06/19/hAZWm.png

Here is the written article which he used for his successful presentation, although some parts are blurred out.
https://talkimg.com/images/2024/06/19/hACCW.png

To cut the story short, He was invited to teach the kids in about bitcoin and guess what? it was a big success. You can read the whole project here SUCCESS! The First Grade School Bitcoin Project! .

When you read the whole project you will find it convincing to award you kids with bitcoins for the future. BTW, @Tuxavant is one of the bitcoin legends.

My Opinion about this project
- During his teaching I believe there was a lot of criticism, a lot of people would have considered him a scammer then but the future he already knew.

- If those kids took bitcoin serious or had it till now, they would have become millionaires with cheap dollars.
