After teaching these students, I found out that the younger ones loves to learn new innovations than the adults or am I wrong from my observation.... Your opinion please.

It's true, teenager's are usually more curious and also excited about new things. when that happens, it's a great opportunity to satisfy their curiosity and further increase their interest and motivation regarding cryptocurrencies. However, teenagers also usually tend to be more emotional and feel high expectations. This must be avoided and managed. As they become acquainted with Bitcoin and find out more about Bitcoin, they will at some point find that people are making a lot of money investing or trading with Bitcoin. And finally they try without knowing the basic knowledge and the risks first. Maybe this also needs to be emphasized for these teenagers if it's not that easy to get money from Bitcoin. More things are needed that will affect Bitcoin investment.

I like the idea of you introducing the concept of bitcoin to these young ones which will increase the awareness about bitcoin but I hope they didn't get the wrong idea of it as a quick get-rich scheme so as not to get the wrong perspective

That is a very important question and area for ops to concentrate on and as I said in my earlier comment, I emphasize on the need to build a knowledge base curriculum and teaching arrangement that will help the teenager make a better decision.

First before teaching them the investment aspect of Bitcoin, ops should first make them realize the risk and better usage of Bitcoin which is an alternative currency.

I think that aspect is very important to highlight in educating these younger people.
Because they may have the idea that this market will give them false hope that they can get good money out of it.
Much better if he can share the reason why this new currency will be helpful in the payment sector.
Rather than focus on how to earn money via investing on this type of digital currency.
If he will go into the investment side, should be clear with the risks involved and the possibilities that may happen in a volatile market.

This is a very noble cause. And a great contribution to the future. Although in general, I believe that if teenagers strive forward in knowledge, then they will discover bitcoin and cryptocurrencies themselves. Nevertheless, there are those whose future is uncertain, and by teaching them cryptocurrencies, you instill in them knowledge that will change their fate for the better. I wish you success in your business.

I welcome your initiative. You are certainly off to a good start in introducing people to Bitcoin. But I think every student in the school where you started such activity is suitable for learning crypto currency. In most cases, it is better not to introduce little boys and old people to crypto-currencies. For example, when old people get into crypto currency, if they are interested in investing and lose in that investment, they can't bear it and at some point they may die of a heart attack or some other injury. And especially never advise the people you are educating on Bitcoin to invest. If they can be educated in bitcoin education then surely they will be able to express interest in investing themselves and invest.

But I think that we cannot force people and also young people to focus on many things like to trade Bitcoin and crypto especially when we are poor.
I have seen pictures that mostly teenagers are in not god condition and I do not know if they can support Bitcoin and crypto volatility. As we all know that Bitcoin is so much cruel sometimes that we cannot even understand what is happening right away.

Teenagers are the right choice to know about this advanced technology because it is very easy for them to understand what will be explained, and they should know what bitcoin is and what it is used for. Because if they are interested, bitcoin can help them financially for now and for their future and they must have the knowledge.
but for a teenager, this amount may be significantly less than for a working, paid adult. So yes, they should invest in bitcoin, but don't encourage them to put their entire savings in it. Because if it's wrong they will hate it because of its own mistakes so teaching risks and the right way is also important.

After looking at these pictures I conclude that "ops' is doing good work, for ops to teach teens about bitcoin in class means she very brilliant and knows little knowledge about bitcoin no matter where she might have gotten that information from, while looking at those pictures I see that most of the students are concentrating on the topic because some of them might have had about bitcoin else were.

I have seen quite a good number of other forum members who post pictures and other content of other forum members doing social work using Bitcoin and the most important part us that knowledge is a vital tool for cryptocurrency and Bitcoin using it as an alternative currency.

-So ops are doing a great job by impacting knowledge on the young students, this is quite commendable but I will advise carrying out a holistic teaching plan since Bitcoin and blockchain are new techs and at that, there is a need for knowledge and education is key.

Pretest and posttest are two of the best ways to measure knowledge. Beside this, I believe that there are many advantages to this in the long run. For instance, it is like a seed that has been planted in the minds of the students. Some of these students may on in the future to study computer science or engineering because of how useful the technology skills will be in the cryptocurrency ecosystem. What are your plans ? I would suggest that you make it like a series and continue to teach the kids in bits about cryptocurrency. It will open them up to many future opportunities.

It's good to see most students that always want to learn new things despite that bitcoin requires more knowledge and risk it's advuceable for students to learn, it's not must they will invest on it now based on there age and there capabilities as they are students they might not have money to invest on bitcoin for now.

I have had the same initiative from a different user before who may also be from the same country as you. They teach kids about bitcoin, it's school age and also teach some potential traders in church or different places. I've never known what the motives behind this initiative are, but if you really want to teach these kids about bitcoin with genuine intentions, then you have every right to earn their proud title of teacher someday.

From the pictures, I can assume they are teenagers, though they are also young to make any decision by themselves so I still think that OP doesn't force them to learn about bitcoin. Also OP has good knowledge about the basics of bitcoin, or maybe she collects the data from google and this forum.

I have seen a post, maybe that member is from the same country as OP, but I saw he was teaching children about bitcoin and the funny part is he is referring them as high school students and also he claims that they will be able to take their own decision after 2-3 years. Maybe in the name of bitcoin adoption they are spreading bitcoin scarcity among the people of their country or community.

your post is very interesting, and when I read it it is very interesting, and when I read it it feels like reading a story in a book, because your post is quite long.

but you are a great person who cares for others, and you do this because of course you want to see everyone progress.
So what you're doing by teaching teenagers about bitcoin is a great and useful thing.

It will be interesting because it's your first time to come across of this kind of thread, but in actual circumstances Bitcoin is good to impact the knowledge to the teenager's depending the love the teenager's have in Bitcoin precisely, because i believe that Bitcoin is understandable to whom that indicates concern in Bitcoin, i believe that have to do with interest. Because forcing or impacting the knowledge or the rudiments of Bitcoin to someone who doesn't have Bitcoin at mind will be a waste of time theirs every tendency that it might not grab it. It depends on someone that showcase interest will fastly understand Bitcoin.

It is very new to them, and I believe they are not engaged with the internet, so they are intrigued. Also, how practical it is, meaning most things taught in schools are coming from books, history, etc., but we don't teach us how to earn money, so basically, if they introduce bitcoin, they will really get curious as it involves a huge amount of money. I am hoping that he can show a visual to the students on sending and receiving bitcoins so that it is more interactive.

I highly doubt that bitcoin is new to them. Bitcoin has and is still spreading far and wide and almost everyone that uses the internet must have heard about bitcoin one way or the other. And what teen today isn’t engaged with the internet?
They may not know much about bitcoin and probably would have heard mainly untruths and misinformation about bitcoin and that’s why the OP is doing a good job of trying to simplify and explain things how they would understand better. Hopefully, this would increase their interest and in turn would lead to increased adoption rate.

It is a welcome development to our younger generation, I think introducing crypto currency as a field of study or subject into the academic calendar will be a better one I want to thank you for that enlightenment you give to the students in the school when they start leaning about crypto currency as a teenager it will create a good enabling environment for them to know how they can have financial freedom and take this campaign to their locality,I think introducing crypto currency as a field of study will help a lots in the crypto space to day in the society so many people even young and old in the rural areas don't know more about this trends how can we take this crypto space to all looks and Crane of the world is by teaching them in their schools and organizations or seminars that is my opinion.

You own the pen

Those teens are easy to educate than others who are stubborn to even listen to you when you want to explain to them that bitcoins have nothing to do with the Ponzi scheme that has been going on throughout the years. they thought when they see bitcoins, it was just another scheme from scammers and they were really hard to talk to about cryptocurrency because these guys have witnessed how bad it is to be a victim of ponzi scam. Thankfully right now, there are lots of people who are open-minded that understand reality and most of them are in their teens up to 30+s. I don't know about other places but in our city, it's easy to explain to these guys than to those old businessmen.

Younger people are always excited to learn new things due to the how limited their teaching curriculum can be. They are well exposed and see the things on the internet, they know that there are better things to learn that only what is being offered on their school curriculum. Teaching this teens about bitcoins, you have offered them an opportunity to be exposed and it will have a big effect on them. I hope you can keep up with these teens at least for a few more weeks. I am happy to see this.

Yes, young people will understand technology faster, such as when they try to learn the technology that runs behind bitcoin, especially during this time, if we observe that more young people are involved in investing in bitcoin than older people, so we can conclude that children young people are more interested in learning more about bitcoin.
Currently we live in an era that is almost completely dependent on technology, so it is highly recommended for millennials to learn and adapt to new innovation developments so that later they can get passive income when investing in bitcoin or receive the benefits offered by each new technology.

It's really a second nature type of thing to teach kids in schools. In the sense that if you teach them the value of something, they could ignore it at the time, but at the back of their heads, they will know something and they will be aware of it at the very least. Like history, not many people really know the exact date of each war, but they are basically aware that there was some war somewhere, same with economics.

If you teach them the difference between asset and liability, just that alone would make the world so much better place. Should I eat this 40 dollar steak in a restaurant, or 4 dollars burger at home and put that 36 dollars in crypto? That question is not asked by many people, if we start that, it will change the whole world.

Teenagers are old to handle this stuff, they are already old enough to make decisions, and of course, they know what is right and what is wrong. So teaching them is not hard nor we can think it was a waste of time but for sure it has positive results. We know that the current generation is much more active to the internet which means that they can easily understand how crypto works and I believe they are even wanted to learn things that could give them money. But what you need OP is to have clear teaching strategies in order to for them to fully understand. And it won't be simply done in one day or two, but kinda be days...

And hopefully, more young people from that school will be interested in using bitcoin, even though they will only use it as an investment. After all, using bitcoin as an investment is the best choice because they can better prepare for their future. Not many young people nowadays have started to think about owning investments from an early age and if the teenagers in that school can have that kind of thinking, they will get good results in the future. This requires everyone at the school, including the parents of the teenager so they can manage their finances well.
