I think the age of 18- 20 years already have a skill and to learn the important bitcoin world has menpunyai basic about knowing digital technology and understand the computer

I think you can start teaching your kids telling them about Bitcoin when they are small, 5-6 years old. Time changes, and our kids know much and they should learn more. Try to show them this kind of cartoons: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-6svvC3JNic

Why not now? Back in the day, kids learning financial literacy saved their allowance in a piggy bank, and crossed the basics of budgeting. These days, things may be a little more high-tech. Several initiatives of launched targeting children in a bid to teach them about cryptocurrency. So it is a wise idea to teach the kids in cryptocurrency. Because early bird catches the worms.

I am considering around 15~19 because that age is a good age for learning and exploring . But bitcoin is really easy to turn people to bad due to free gambling so i still wonder about this question.
First kids must go through their primary education that's  very important once they enters college that could be the appropriate time to teach them about crypto, as they can understand about trading and investment at that age so better to start once they enter college.

Hi everyone,

When is a good age to teach kids about crypto?  Any suggestions on how to go about it?  thanks Smiley

For me, the best time to teach children about bitcoins is when they are old enough to understand how money works and how digital currency works. They work both hand-in-hand. You can't learn about cryptocurrency without learning how fiat money and digital currency works in our society.
Basically that is when someone has known how to work money, in addition to children also must recognize the technology.
Bitcoin is part of a technology so a child who wants to know Bitcoin then he should be able to get to know the Technology.
All Bitcoin transactions are digital so that one must be fully prepared for everything that exists.

If your child is 1 - 5 years old now, I think they will be part of the cryptocurrency era, so teaching them early is acceptable. When he was 12 years old, I think he has been able to digest about cryptocurrency since he was a child who already interacting with contemporary technology. Do not forget to set aside some of your assets to be used by your child in the future. Maybe the next few years it could be a big capital for him.

First off, I am actually confused why some are feeling the need to trouble kids, who should only focused with their studies to be taught about these things about the cryptocurrency market. However, to answer the questions, the best time, for me, would be during middle or high school. At least, they already have the idea of how the economy works or how the country earns its money; thus, if they would be taught not the concept directly, but how it can affect the them positively, then they would actually have the interest to learn about it. Kids these days are not focused with this kind of stuff that the chances of you getting their attention or keeping it, for that matter, would be so difficult. That's also a challenge you need to overcome.

I think 'round 10 - 12 years old, kids nowadays are very smart and curious. At that age they already have the basic concept of our own currency, the physical money, plus these kids also already very familiar with technologies, gadgets and computers so I think it's best to introduce the crypto currency to them already. Teach them the basics but make sure that we still provide guidance until they reach their legal age when they are already matured and responsible enough to manage their own wallets, regardless if it's the physical or the digital one.

Maybe the time or age that is appropriate to teach crypto to kids is that when they were introduced in the concept of profit and loss.  Maybe when they are teach on how to trade properly,  that is the appropriate time

I will teach my children when they are in primary school.
Because they already know how to use money?
That's what I would teach them about cryptocurrency.

Teach them abour cryptocurrency when they know how to operate a table and a computer. They'll fully understand cryptocurrency once they know how to fully utilize their tablets and their computers. One day, one of those kids might make the next bitcoin. So start them early.

I think the right age for our kids to know about bitcoin is when they reach the legal age which is 18yrs old. For them to know which is right and wrong for them to know how to manage their time correctly and for them to tell which is scam and the real one.

It is literally not a determinable case as nowadays, everything depends on the grip of the kids over the knowledge that is shared to them.
At the very beginning, it's better to start teaching them about the blockchain technology rather than crypto world so to make them aware of what is driving it. Until they understand it fully, they should not be drawn towards cryptocurrencies as half-knowledge and greed to make money through altcoins may set a negative example in their small minds rather than making them gain the real knowledge, and could be dangerous for their future as well.

I don't know the exact time to teach my children the crypto,
But I think at the earliest after their elementary school, it was their understanding ability is likely to become strong many, if it is too early they crypto, they may not understand what is this
We don't need to teach kids to something like this one, but we don't need to teach them how trading works or how to invest, let us just state this in simplest way that 'this is a cryptocurrency where in it can be an alternative to cash, and as time is passing by its value is increasing, but sometimes goes down whenever a lot of users withdrew their investment.'
