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 like your point of view, that was mostly people think here in the Philippines that Bitcoin is a part of ponzi scam. Before there's a bigtime scammer caught in authority last two years if not mistaken, that's I think the reason some people always thinking Bitcoin is a scam they didn't know the real value of blockchain.

Well, that is a piece of good news though, for me, if people here are fully knowledgeable enough on blockchain and crypto for sure it takes massive adoption.

While venues for blockchain education are available in the Philippines, formal blockchain education offers from educational institutions would make the country be at par with global blockchain development.

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!

Formal like a course? Since CHED and TESDA was mentioned, Id rather choose to include it on TESDA courses list rather than implementing it as a regular subject in entry levels. But honestly there are lots of blockchain related meetups and seminars already that being held throughout Manila.

There is also a project (will not mentioned the name to not looks like Im promoting it) that always do regular blockchain summit in several universities here. I see them on top schools helding some blockchain related seminars. The purpose is to teach students the fundamentals of using blockchain technology (aside also from promoting the use of their coins).

This kind of education will help all Filipinos to become competitive in the filed of blockchain technologies. I hope this kind of education about blockchain technologies will offer in all university so many people will become more educated and knowledgeable in crytpocurrencies.
