Topic: What is being told to people in High Schools about Bitcoin - page 8. (Read 9732 times)
In my country, kids in High Schools were not taught about cryptocurrency, they are more focused on academics, history, Mathematics, Science, Home Economics, Carpentry etc. Not a single word about bitcoins. Even teachers are unaware of bitcoin. If someone known it, they think it is a scam or some multi level marketing product.
In high school, its mean we want to tell about the bitcoin for the student, Personally, i don't think that it is good idea, because if you ask about college or university than may be i am agree with you, but in school, it is suitable place for bitcoin, because in school life it is not a age of earning, so it is wasting our time, But in one point i am agree with you, and it is that we should do something for publicity of bitcoin.
He said bitcoin is illegal? Idk about that but thats the first itme iv ever heard of the really
Make sure you have a decent stash of bitcoins. Then at your 10 year reunion show your teacher your Ferrari and say glad I didn't listen to you. Find a new job teach.
Reminds me of the old saying: Those who can, do. Those who can't, teach.
I'm certain the teacher has no formal training in Bitcoin and as such what he says is opinion not fact.
Emm you I agree with you. If we see from how the teacher said the teacher only give a statement with the reason that only from own opinion. Lets we take from first point, in reality not forever bitcoin is use for illegal activities like drugs transactions.
I think Bitcoin is kinda a aspect which people must learn by themselves. It is a new technology and innovation which is not widely accepted by people. Schools only teach us some basic knowledge and guide us how to become a good citizen. If you want to know more about Bitcoin, you must learn it online or ask some experts for help.

It's too bad to here about that. Anyway, my country does not care about Bitcoin so basically in high schools, no one ever teach about it. And unsurprisingly, the majority of teachers does not even know what is Bitcoin. It is very hilarious. I still wonder how can Bitcoin become a part of my country in the future
yes same , no one ever teach about and majority of teachers does not even know what is Bitcoini hope entry to arround their , and wanna learn about bitcoin
bitcoin is not teach in high school, its been in out side and not many people talking about bitcoin in the corner of coffee shop or in the cafe and its only few people that join in one community in one city that talking about bitcoin. i think it will be interesting if there is any high school that giving the lesson about bitcoin in next year so more people will know bitcoin.

It is clear that the teacher doesn't have a depth understanding of the topic but what really intrigues me is how can a teacher discuss a one sided topic . A teacher must discuss it without bias and prejudice . It is most likely that bitcoin will have a bad impression to the students even though they dont know it well
How long ago did you finish school yourself?
Teachers are the most stubborn types that you may ever meet out there. They may start claiming whatever bullshit, and they will never admit being wrong on that even if they themselves eventually understand what drivel they are spouting. They seemingly fail to understand how ridiculous their attempts at saving face look. Just in case, I've met a few such types here, and some of them are obviously still teaching or had been teaching in the past
I agree to much ego i guess. And since they think that student are far inferior to their knowledge, they can talk any bullshit and pretend that it is the fact which if researched and study brings no relevance to what they are describing. I wonder when will this teacher just tell their student that they don't know rather than creating fact based in their opinion.
It would be hard for them to accept that they are incompetent if they are asked about something, especially by a kid. They think that saying that they don't know would heavily undermine their authority while in fact telling bullshit and then defending that bullshit undermines it even more, sometimes well past the point of no return. Even some university professors suffer from this plague. You'd better stay away from them altogether since they are often very spiteful at that...
And will revenge without doubt if such an opportunity arises
I think they even don't know and they don't care about bitcoin. Since they are just young enough for this things. I'm in college. One factor that will most certainly determine if bitcoin is a long term success is if the current teenage generation meets it with enthusiasm and interest. Fellow bitcoiners, I can tell you that my fellow peers are very interested.

Maybe point may be right but In my view 1st and last point are wrong .
How we can say it illegal . If we want use Bitcoin to make some buy of things then first we need to convert Bitcoin into fiat and accept money in bank , So everything is clear here , nothing is illegal .

Most of the academians I know either dont know nothing about it, or they view it as a ponzi scheme. There is some truth to the fact that every financial structure is somehow a ponzi in nature. But its the falacy of academia that view financial structures as not a ponzi when its backed up by other financial structure.
That in fact doesnt make for example a banks a ponzi scheme, its enables bank to create a ponzi schemes on an imaginable scale. So its better to have small ponzi than large if you must.

1. Bitcoin is not illegal everywhere. And some countries like Switzerland or England are trying to regulate it nowadays.
2. We don't really know whether it is going to crash. For now it is absolutely impossible to do the encryption and people believe in btc. The price is only growing.
3. I don't understand why normal people wouldn't use it. If he was on of those not using any IT products then fine. Otherwise, it doesn't make sense.
4. Why should it fail at global market? Bitcoin is already getting there and nothing bad happens.

1. That's illegal
Just because it's not regulated doesn't mean it was Illegal, Just like in my place.
Bitcoin is not a legit money according to the law but we are still free to do day-to-day bitcoin trade, but don't expect any help from the laws if I got scammed with Bitcoin
3.Anyone clear in its head wouldn't use it
4. Bitcoin at a bigger scale would fail
Tell your Teacher that the Japanese are proposing to use Bitcoin as one of their currency, 4. Bitcoin at a bigger scale would fail
In fact, they already started doing that by a simple method to pay for their Utility bills

I don't have much to say about the second point as he was kinda correct, Bitcoin price can crash anytime as it was volatile currency.
But for now the Bitcoin is pretty calm with the usual high and low
True, it can be gone at any moment, but at this point of time the price so far of bitcoin was pretty cool, so nice to sell it for now.
Unfortunately in my country there is not much talk about bitcoin, and I move in circles where we have a lot of discussions about new technology and people don't even know what it is, they don't have a negative opinion they have no opinion about.
#1 Strawman, because it isn't legal it must be illegal.
#2 Could crash, but the loss of value would be insane and it would be incredibly unlikely for any of it to collapse without a decent amount of warning. A decent argument.
#3 Poor argument, makes no sense and is just "well people wouldn't use it for one reason or another". There is no real argument presented here.
#4 Better argument, probably the best one presented. At a bigger scale, Bitcoin in its current state would fail. Luckily for us, there are developers that can fix this.
