Never thought the learning of blockchain to students would start in the Philippines. I have never heard of any stores or any news about anything where Philippine stores are accepting BTC or crypto, why do they have to make it available in the universities when they weren't even one of the countries that are aggressively using blockchain on their technology.

Because we need to be more knowledgeable about cryptocurrency and this is the future currency so why not make it available to the top universities here in the Philippines. NEM Philippines are the one who are actively making cryptocurrency a more friendly to Filipinos. I don't know if the Philippines is the first country to make blockchain technology available in universities but a simple move like this is already a big help for the market.

NEM is all over even in other less progressive countries. They always have a group to promote their own. What I do know though is that the southern philippines has more development with blockchain than near the capital Manila. Cagayan City is more aggressive on blockchain projects which they do have a a blockchain hub, seem a fitting place for universities to have their courses available.

This is actually interesting. With the growing demand and increasing reputation of cryptocurrencies, having formal education reflects on how the country is adapting and progressing towards this change. Soon enough, college universities would offer elective or alternative classes specifically for cryptocurrencies.

My only concern is instead of focusing on cryptocurrencies, why don't we shift our attention to the overall education of Filipinos? Most of the children living in poverty are neglected of education and this may cause a significant impact on the country's overall development in the future.

I think education is good idea so many people learn about Cryptocurrency not only in the Philippines but also to some country that developing their country. More knowledge and learning about crypto will be good for every body so we can face anything will happen in crypto and also they can manage what they have in crypto.

Overall, learning about the blockchain and cryptocurrencies in general is essential as we would adapt to this kind of transaction method in the future. Not only it is important but crucial in order to progress in terms of economic standing and overall effect.

The people of Phillippines are leading in the community of cryptos.
I think that in general we need more education about the blockchain technologies in every country around the world and by that I don't mean only coding education. Every people should know how this technology works and what are the benefits of it.

You do know that education is a very broad term. Moreover, trust me, educational institution isn't actually the best place to learn about crypto currencies. On average, most of the educational institution are just a place were people are forcefully fed with information that they can not process. They are also forced to study from a defined box of information which is actually a bad thing.
People will need to spread the knowledge about this technology in every way possible which will eventually rise an interest in those youngsters mind.

I think it's not only the Philippines that needs blockchain education, but many other developed countries that need blockchain education, because with this blockchain education will help their economy.

I believe some exclusive schools are already offering blockchain classes in the Philippines. I believe that is a step toward a good future of blockchain in the Philippines. Blockchain is the future so the more developers and blockchain professionals we have the better.

To provide a formal education regarding blockchain technology in the Philippines is a good idea especially that one of its purpose is to make the Filipinos globally competitive in such field. And its good to know that there are already institutions which offer workshops about such. (Looking forward to attend to one)

I really hope the Philippine government through CHED and TESDA consider this inclusion in the education of students, not necessarily as a course but even just as an elective because this will surely open their minds on what this generation holds when it comes to finance matters. And also to inform them well about blockchain and to stop the stigma that its just a scam.

It's an advantage for Filipinos to have that course since they are competitive and they focus more on something that is in demand. Blockchain education is needed not only in the Philippines but in most countries who are eager to adopt cryptocurrency. It would also help the growth of cryptocurrency in every country if huge universities would offer that course.

Just by seeing that the news is about Atene De Manila Univesity (ADMU) offering a blockchain related course as an elective shows that we are still far from seeing it be offered for the masses. ADMU is one of the most known private universities in the Philippines and seeing that it started on one of the top schools shows no interest for the government to start it offering to public schools. This kind of education being offered to the masses would only be available depending on how the crypto industry will be successful in the Philippines.

Do not expect our Government to support cryptocurrency, as long as there is no major adaptation from other country our country wont took action regarding this matter. And regarding to the course, I think it is better if the ADMU will put it on as subject and not a course like putting it on to computer studies or other courses because it will educate more students.

Philippines known as one of countries which is good environment for bitcoin. By giving more formal blockchain education for its citizens then Philippines can be the number one country which dominate cryptocurrency market because it will show seriousness of this country, I think it can also make more investors invest in Philippines. I hope it's not only Philippines, most of countries that exist in this world should give more education about blockchain and cryptocurrency to their citizens.

If senior high school was possible to implement and more scholarships were given these past recent years, and with the current leader of the Philippines, Blockchain learning centers and labs in the country is not far from reality. Only it needs more push to the congress, so that they may give it a try to educate their computer engineers and other computer technical related courses graduates. Philippines may have a chance from bringing it's country from poverty, well knowledge is power.

I agree to you, if the government are continuously focusing on the improvement of the blockchain education in the Philippines. Surely, most of the people are become aware and having an possibility to increase their financial status in life on which it adds on the demand in the market that would possibly make the price high and helps it to adopt as a payment method in the society.

Well, block chain is relatively good. But, I do.not know if the DepEd and CHED would allow this to happen for they are implementing the curriculums and it has undergone studies before implementing it. Teachers also needs a training or experience for this. No one can teach without knowledge or learnings about block chain.

All in all it may be good to integrate block chain in every system but not the cryptocurrency. There are many crypto tagged as scam except for.bitcoin and other strong crypto. Usually airdrops are scam and lead one to invest in it after one receive it. So, this must bw regulated first and other problems related to cryptocurrency.

It is not only needed for Philippines, rather it is required for every developed country as well. Blockchain is still a very new technology and we don't yet have a formal education available around it. It should start from high school level because the students need to have a certain level of IQ to understand it properly.

It will also help to reduce a lot of misconceptions around crypto because crypto is the first ever real life use case of blockchain. At least some people will stop calling it a ponzi scam of they educate themselves with this technology. It's the need of the hour!

I agree. The world needs something like a formal blockchain education because not only the philippines need it but the entire world. Your opinion about the misconception around cryptocurrency is for me a very accurate opinion related to this topic as it will literally helps newbies and other people reduce their number and in return increase the number of educated enthusiasts around the globe.
