I think gradually most countries will begin doing that, just like they will begin accepting Bitcoin. It's just a matter of time. Think of it this way - ten years ago no one would have even considered, anywhere, to add Bitcoin to the school curriculum. And now it's happening. Who's to say what the situation will be like in another ten years?
Although bitcoin has not been accepted by all countries in the world, what slovekia has done is truly an amazing thing, it seems they have seen bitcoin and blockchain as something that has potential in the future, so they started to include bitcoin as one of the lessons in the schools and began educating schoolchildren to learn to see the benefits and role of bitcoin in the future.

I see the Slovak government starting to realize Bitcoin is going to get bigger in the future. Therefore they made the decision to include Bitcoin
as a subject in school, so that Bitcoin can be learned by the younger generation in Slovakia. What is certain is that Bitcoin has proven for 12 years
to provide many benefits for its users, so learning Bitcoin from an early age becomes very important. Hopefully more countries will follow
in Slovakia's footsteps, because the long-term effect is huge for a country that makes Bitcoin a subject in schools. This means that when children
are adults who already understand the basic knowledge of Bitcoin, can use Bitcoin to improve their economy. If more people can improve their
economy, then indirectly the country will also increase its economy.

very cool. looks very good for early childhood learn About Crypto Currency in formal school. This is a very important lesson in this day and age seeing the rapid development of technology. by learning about bitcoin so that children are expected to know the good and bad of Bitcoin. This is the beginning for other schools to follow this school to introduce Bitcoin in their schools.
Don't know whether other schools will start following it or not because as per the standards they are following the general course criteria where they have specified which subjects to be taught or not.This is the school administration personal decision to influence these decisions and some extra subject with bitcoin as this school has implemented in their course.

You see the children are also learning the same thing which is helpful in the further fields of life like physics, chemistry,maths, economics, business but they should also grab the practical knowledge which is at current the most useful and revolutionary topic that can change the way world payment works.They should be learning it an early age which will help them to know the true power of decentralisation and how bitcoin works.This small effort could spark really big blows to the government as youth are building blocks of nation.

Bitcoin lessons have started to be done in many countries. mostly for young people who provide knowledge to be able to keep up with the times. although it has not been legalized but the bitcoin business is very suitable for the development of today's world. so that in the end there will be many people who have new jobs in bitcoin or become investors for their own future

There are very few countries that are welcoming the decnrtalized btc rest are either against it or have allowed only centralized crypto. I think even if you don't study btc in school or college it's fine. Since the purpose of high school study is to give you basic understanding of how to learn things. I haven't studied btc in my entire educational career but I know how it works. That's because I have an education that helps me understanding new technologies.
Some schools just add a new curriculum on basic cryptocurrency learning to provide an overview of cryptocurrency knowledge. You don't have to get learning at school, because basic crypto learning can be obtained at any time, the important thing is to be willing and not lazy to read. Embedding crypto knowledge from an early age will provide future technology knowledge that our successors can understand.
slovakia may be just a few examples of schools that have started implementing cryptocurrency learning, there are many other schools that have started implementing crypto learning.

I wish it was in the school curriculum in the country I live in, but I don't think it's going to happen anytime soon, how unfortunate I am. As far as I know it's taught at certain universities in my area, and after reading this thread, I feel like my nation is so far behind. This is indeed our fate in a country that does not prioritize digital education in its curriculum early on  Cry
it's true as you said, other countries have made bitcoin a curriculum, not only universities but elementary schools have taught the basics of bitcoin, but it's a shame the country where I live has not taught bitcoin in schools or universities, the world of bitcoin is a digital world , so schools should also provide a curriculum about bitcoin..

I don't know where are you from, It doesn't matter that Bitcoin is not taught at the school level in your country. Bitcoin-related things are not taught at the school level in different countries of the world.

In this case, all of you who know better about Bitcoin can make up small groups and you can run different campaigns where you discuss Bitcoin-related subjects.

At the end of the school period, you can conduct campaigns to give the students an idea about Bitcoin. Maybe teachers will also be enthusiastic about this and will change their teaching content to keep pace with the developed world.

Bitcoin should be added to the new academic curriculum across nations because bitcoin as a software, technology and a currency is poising a new technological era. slovakia has began the step i know many other nations will buy into the technology and it would even be more lucrative for countries where the idea is banned so their young lads can learn about the technology to decide for themselves in the future if the technology is truely harmful or has any tendency to societally, economically or digitally improve their economy

Not bad, school is a place for people to learn, and things like Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies should be taught in school. Cryptocurrency and blockchain are the next big thing, and I think it would be a great idea if schools will try to focus on this area and help students to learn about blockchain and cryptocurrency so that in the future if this is something that they would be interested in, they can get into it and have a job as Blockchain and crypto engineers.

These days, I have noticed that there are lots of companies who are in need of blockchain engineers or developers, and in the past few years this has become one of the areas that there is the most jobs available in.

I think it would be better to teach students about trading rather than teaching them about a single crypto. If they learn trading at such a young age, they will surely be making enough profits to pay all their bills when they go for higher studies.
What are you saying? To teach young students about how to trade?  Shocked
It is a very bad idea, how can you want to let young students learn about trading? Trading isn't appropriate material for them, let them enjoy his young ages. At least, someone has finished Senior high school to learn trading, so they are mature enough to be aware of the risks and advantages. When you are still young ages, paying bills isn't your responsibility. That's your parents' responsibility. Someone can try to work and live independently when he is already more than 18 years old.

actually there is a negative side and a positive side if it is required to be used as a lesson. because it is okay to introduce but to be able to participate directly in the trade is clearly too young for schoolchildren to do and not appropriate. so it is wiser to introduce it from a scientific point of view, not to be done and put into practice. let there be a time when they are independent and can decide.

I don't think it's necessary for young children to learn how to invest in cryptos - or anything else, for that matter. But learning about the actual technology, and its effect on the world, in language that is appropriate for their age, can only do them good, in my opinion.

Warren buffet start investing at age 11, means starting to invest at early age could teach a lot of lesson about how we could manage emotion and manage our money when they are grow up to adult. A smart tech guy could gain much earnings from their salary but if they are bad at investing and money management the money will gone anywhere, but a smart investors definitely know when to spend and save money so they will have a good life when they are old

If only my older brother would give me bitcoin in 2009-2010 - I would be the happiest now! Smiley In general, it's very nice - I did this for my son when he was born 3 years ago, although I bought not bitcoin but etherium and not for $100 but for $500. Now they are worth much more. I confess I had a few moments when I wanted to sell them at a "good" rate, but then I caught myself in time and remembered that they were "not mine." Let the guy grow up and decide what to do with them. Who knows - maybe he will already be a millionaire by then? Smiley

there is an appropriate time and age when to introduce Bitcoin to our children as its technicality is really hard for them to understand and grasp the information for their young minds. In fact, even us who are old enough can barely understand easily how much more with their ages. That I think this is suitable in High School ( at least) as we know that they are old enough to take responsibility and probably this creates interest to them as they will start to make their own.
It is good that they are being taught at an early age. There are ways that these things can be broken down and these children will get to understand it. It’s mostly all about how it is being taught, if the message is passed through the right way, then they will easily understand it. It would only be difficult if the message is not passed accurately.

There should be exercises involved, that would allow the children to participate in activities that would make them understand how Bitcoin works and what it is all about. They can try things like transactions with Bitcoin and get to learn how it works and as time goes on and as they keep growing, the school can then start digging deeper into the technical aspects of Bitcoin that would have been hard for them to understand at a younger age.

[Nope]No hype delivers more than hope
-snip-
Let children concentrate on their studies and when they get into high school of learning they can begin to learn trading and how to invest their cryptocurrency.

Trading and investment analysis is not a finding and absolute truth, and there is no claim that all current analytical techniques are close to say 95% certainty. People can also throw their own theories into their analysis. Given that crypto trading carries more risk, we are not talking enough about loss of value but also loss of access, fraud, etc. So I think ownership, use and risk management is something that is more appropriate to be taught at any school level.

Implementing Crypto or bitcoin education in schools in my opinion is very important.
Without knowing about something we are about to do, abuse is unavoidable, especially the basics of bitcoin and its use and how to use it properly and correctly so that when they are ready at the right time, they can do it well.
that's why so many people lose money in crypto because they don't have enough knowledge, and but when have proper crypto or bitcoin education, they will excel easily and make good profit.
But it shouldn't be too early though in my opinion because I believe that there's more fundamentals that needs to be taught before anything regarding bitcoin. Pretty sure that if you teach it to a kid, they might eventually forget about it or worse, they might not listen to it because they find it too wordy or too difficult to understand, there are terms that is difficult to be dumbed down so I believe it shouldn't be as early as we think it should be.

Parents should be mindful of when they introduce their children to bitcoin so as not to disrupt their learning focus. Anything that involves making money as investment should be restricted from children. Let children concentrate on their studies and when they get into high school of learning they can begin to learn trading and how to invest their cryptocurrency.
NO, they didn't learn about trading or investment in Bitcoin. If you look at it closely on the book cover, we can read "A tale of ......". So, basically, what those children read is about a tale (a tale related to Bitcoin), that's surely appropriate for their ages. I didn't read what the content on the book yet, but I am pretty sure if the writer adapts the material and the method to deliver the message on the tale for their ages.
