It is indeed good to teach kids to know the world of crypto, but I question whether this crypto will continued into the future, or whether it would be more awesome than now? I hope this will continue and the more powerful.

Hi everyone,

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

I think is best we teach our kids about bitcoin very early so that they can grow with that knowledge. I think the age that the bitcoin teach to kids age of 11 up because If they teach early the bitcoin in their kids, their kids have a saving that they use if they want buy a toy, and the parents needs to manage their bitcoin or earnings.

As long as they know the value of crypto and if they are also already interested regarding crypto.

Perhaps, as long as the kids can understand bitcoin and shows an interest about it well it doesn't matter what age He/She is. But we can give them a familiarization about the features and usages of bitcoin for them to get easily to adopt it, isn't?

I think is best we teach our kids about bitcoin very early so that they can grow with that knowledge, bitcoin is the highest technology of our time and at that kids needs to know all that they need to know about bitcoin very early so that they can utilize the full potential that is embedded in bitcoin and how the blockchain technology works.

Just when you think that they will be able to understand what Bitcoin is about. Because it's not very easy at the first sight.

Any child who is old enough to understand accounting principles like credits and debits or corporate stocks should be able to understand the basics of bitcoin. Kids who are technologically astute will understand it even better. This could be anywhere from the age of 8 to 12.

Children must have childhood! I believe the child needs to develop gradually and yet he does not realize that cryptocurrency is good. No need to force the child to learn. The time will come he will learn. The optimal age of 15. Not before.

I agree. Money and finances are not for children and they can't understand their true meaning and functioning.  Once they are 15 they are old enough to get introduced with cryptocurrencies but also with basics of economic education. Otherwise all this could also influence them in wrong way.

To teach crypto to children no matter what age, because learning crypto does not require the age level, now is the age of Online and now many children are playing Online, it would be nice we teach the child as soon as possible about crypto as a substitute for Online games child.

Yup, I agree with you  Wink
I ever disagree with this kind of opinion. But, after few weeks lately I change my mind. I saw so many children that more clever in playing online than adult. They can understand everything which is online easily. Now, I start to teach my son. He is still 11 years old and eager to know about crypto world.

Actually, Learning cryptocurrency doesn't requires age to learn it. As long as the learner or a kid, trying to learn and have the hardwork to know what's cryptocurrency, He/she is able to be taught by a good teacher. But you should try to measure what's the best age of them because if a kid already learned at is young age, He/she got some stress and bitcoin and it will also stressed in studies. Lack of focus in studies will nit be prevented. Education is better than it.

Teach them math first.

You can teach them everything about Bitcoin, but without a good mathematical foundation they will end up very confused over what you're talking about. Because of that, you should teach them at around age 8-10.

I think first you need the basics of financial literacy. first teach the control of the usual currency then tell me about other types of currencies and the history of the origin of other money and move gradually to the crypto currency.

If you have passion, you can teach them as early as possible, Just make sure that he/she won't abandon his/her studies, Because i believe Education is also an investment that will prepare an individual to greener pasture when the right time comes:)
yes,its totally good opinion.

They should be taught as soon as possible if you notice they have a sufficient level of understanding of such abstract concepts.

At early age teach them how to save first. That's the basics. Then introduce the real world currencies. How does it work, why it has different values, etc. Then finally you can introduce him/her to crypto world. The're no specific age requirement when to teach them, as long as they're interested then start teaching them!

There is no specific age to teach crypto to children, but it would be wise to teach it after they entered adulthood, because what we worry about is the disruption of their concentration in school, maybe just teaching the basic crypto basics just does not matter, but if for a more complicated level, I do not think so. the strategy is by gradual teaching.

It is never too early to starting teaching children about crypto and bitcoin.  Teaching children about the attributes of the blockchain is a great idea - such as decentralization, open source code, and peer-to-peer applications - all will be relevant for future generations and years to come. Our global culture is changing and in time, these children will be the sole contributors to the network.
