I think cryptocurrency is very easy to understand, as long as the kids know the money then we can teach them about bitcoin right away and I'm sure that the age of 5 years is a good time to teach bitcoin to them.

I think even in their younger age we need to introduce and teach our kids about crypto. Age is doesn't matter, especially today that almost of our children has already knowledge how to use gadgets, i think they can understand it immediately. At the young age we should teach them before its too late so that they have already knowledge about bitcoin early, because today btc is popular currency and this is very useful as they grow.

Hi everyone,

When is a good age to teach kids about crypto?  Any suggestions on how to go about it?  thanks Smiley
Looks like the age of 6 years is enough to be taught about crypto, but we can not teach in a way like adults. Children still need to play and learn, let's teach kids about crypto by making educational toys related to crypto, I'm sure they'll quickly understand as well as love it.

I think for children today do not need to be taught about bitcoin because children are more clever and more clever today because there are already many underage children already have so many bitcoin assets that they get but in addition to they can not yet verify their earnings because they are underage, so what's wrong with introducing bitcoin from now on.

In my opinion, age 17 is the right age, to teach children about crypto, because at that age the child's mind starts to mature, more stable and can more easily accept it.

in my opinion, we can teach cryptocurrency for children at high school. This is a good time for them can understand about cryptoworld. we should not teach too early, because it is not neccessary.

Exactly, bitcoin and cryptocurrency are complicated things to learn, it seems we will be useless if introducing bitcoin to those who are not old enough and high school is the right time because the child already has a picture of the transaction and finances.

I don't think there is a specific age for them to be taught, if you find your child picking interest in it, you can teach him/her the basics, learning at a very young age could actually help them grow to become great minds in the Krypto World.

I think it is advisable to inform kids around 9-10 years old.  We just need to introduce the crypto currency like a 5 minute discussion and that's it. If the child is intersted, he/she can join after class discussion or clubs that will discuss bitcoin. We should not force them to understand and like bitcoin. They should be willing to learn and make an effort to know what it is. After that, they can introduce bitcoin next semester. Educating a child are one of the good way of preparing them in the future.

Kids nowadays are very civilized in terms of technology. They are easy to learn and to adopt how technology works. So if we teach them in cryptocurrencies, they might be learn from it step by step and to adopt it in their whole lives. So by the age of 12 or 13, you must teach them how the bitcoin works and teach them not to easily invest because they might be lose a lot and too risky.

There's no specific age to teach them about crypto, well, you just let them know that it exist, then you can tell them how to earn it in the future. I think it's good if he/she is in high school before starting to engage in the community.

12 years and above I think, Just explain him/her the basics, Cryptucurrencies are adults stuffs when it comes to its application. Don't ruin the child's mindset like that. If you want then computer hardware and computer knowledge is essential to a kid, as well as programming. Later when he/she knows this stuffs, they will understand the blockchain even more because they know the theory behind.

Once somebody is able to drive a car, he should be able to understand bitcoin as well and handle it in a responsible way.
The age to get a drivers licens differs from country to country, but as far as I know it's between 15 and 18.

In general I would not teach bitcoin in schools.
Imagine a teenager was tought about crypto currencies at school, opens an account and loses all his money.
I am sure that in case of a lawsuit the school would be held responsible and it would have to make up for the loss.
This is all about individual teachings, how you can make your child view the world in cryptocurreny in a "not all about money" manner. But I think later on this kind of technology will be taught in schools and will be included in the curriculum. This is no different from, ecomomics and finance.

Age is just a number. It really doesn't matter here in crypto as long as a kid can understand how bitcoin works then they can use bitcoin too. But there is a disadvantage on that. If kids would get addicted on crypto, they will forget their academics which is not good. Everythinf should be in balance.

when bitcoin only appeared, I certainly did not know anything. And even after many years, no one told me that this exists. But now everything is progressing, and we just have to teach the younger generation. The sooner they find out, the more useful they will be in the future.

I have been teaching my daughter and she is just 12 years old. I also teach her how to fill the airdrops lol Grin

The point here should be how you will teach your child/children to be responsible in this matter. Responsible in what to post, how to post and how to deal with different issues here.

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.
There is no specific age to teach a kid about in crypto. Childrens now are so bright they know easily how to use a gadget and play online games. I know they easily learn and understand the importance of bitcoin in human.
