I guess that's impossible, seeing now that many have banned cryptocurrencies like states that prohibit the use of bitcoin as a transaction tool and recently social media has also banned advertising of cryptocurrency and ICO. So yes it is impossible for cryptocurrency to be used as a learning in a university.

I don't think this will ever be a reality unfortunately.
Maybe they can pick blockchain tech up at computer science etc.

I  think it should become a part of the college curriculum. It will definitely be a smart and an intelligent move. To spread the knowledge about the crypto would become easier if such kind of step    is taken up by the education ministry.

Students right now just need to be educated regarding this topic and they can really do wonders. Every time a get to meet a student and get to discuss this topic with him, I really get to know a hell lot of new ideas because the youth has a different perspective to look at the things.

with time I really hope each n every country takes a step forward to introduce crypto as a subject in the schools or colleges!!

I for one don't believe that Btc or any crypto currencies will be a required college course to get a degree. Presently don't misunderstand me they may offer like discretionary classes kinda like they offer research and tasting classes yet I contemplate as much as they will offer.

I don't believe it will be a major, but cryptocurrencies should have a collegiate level course. Both at a financial level and a blockchain level. Introducing this information at a high school and collegiate level will push the technology even farther. The generations after us are the future, and the earlier they are informed, the faster we can push things forward.

It would be nice to introduce training to crypto-currencies in a college or university. As technology is progressing and we need the younger generation to think something new. But it will not happen now, maybe in 5 years.

Bitcoin education could be added to college curriculum. However there would be a huge debate that will go on when they srart categorizing bitcoin to either the economics or tge information technology course as it both tackles the two courses. Bitciin education could be of great gelp especially to the teenagers nowadays that are still financially dependent. And a little knowledge and mptivation might drive them to invedt ob bitcoins.

I doubt colleges will create a special course of study for crypto currencies. But I am sure that crypto should be joined to a course of economic theory of every place where it studied. People need to know about crypto currencies, even if some politics and economists do not admit it as money or have generally "fraud" opinion about it.

Its hard to implement the bitcoin as a major subject in college because it is no relation with the other subject. It is more on investing and earning online. We can teach them if they wanted to learn even though it is not a subject.

I think it can be done in some countries. But there are still many countries around the world that don't accept bitcoin. So in these countries, bitcoin is hard to be taught as a course in a university. Only when a country accepts bitcoin will it be realized.
Here in our country, it is not yet part of a major or any subject but my cousin told me that they have discussed bitcoin in their Economic class. So I think although it is not part of a major in college but it will somehow will put as a topic in one subject.

Yes, for now it's an informal subject, being discussed only as curiosity during classes. But at some time it will have to be part of the scholar subjects officially, because it's part of the history and a very present part of modern economy. Countries can dislike Bitcoin, but they can't ignore it forever.

However, even those countries that don't like Bitcoin, Uzbekistan for an example, like BTC's technology and have already signed they want to support developers and incentize their people to learn more about Crypto-Currency and Blockchain to continue developing the technology. In the end, their goal is to create a new Crypto-Currency backed by real assets, a centralized one.

I think it is very difficult, but for a very large country it is difficult to accept the existence of the bitcoin or cryptopcurrency.
  maybe if all the countries really validate cryptocurrency as a whole, it could be that it can be made in education for study program

Yes you are right about that, some of the countries cannot really handle the growth of bitcoins and the companies are loosing their workers and in order to avoid that to happen they should stop bitcoins so we can say that cryptocurrency is not healthy for every country.

It was a very nice idea if government will allow college students to implement a cryptocurrency major subjects for us to expect more projects of different coins in the future. Therefore we can live a cashless country since it was applicable for every if their government will just use cryptocurrency to improve their own country.

I hope the future of the future college of cryptocurrency. The reason for this is the reason for the change in financial status. The college may have a formal impact on cryptocurrency. It can meet the demands of financial institutions. Then the financial market could change the situation.

Some universities offer blockchain courses. Maybe in the future it will become a major subject or could be a course given a lot of youths now are interested in learning this new technology. Sooner or later blockchain and cryptocurrency will be discovered by a lot of people, resulting in widespread curiosity and adoption.

I think it's entirely possible that bitcoin is now popular around the world. There are already universities that teach bitcoin as a course, and I think more and more universities are teaching it as a course, which is a great thing.

Honestly, it could very well be that programming techniques based around blockchain, or those that complement one another could become a college major. I suspect if a college began offering such a course it would certainly reach the news, and would have no shortage of applicants. The technology is still new, many corporations have their eyes on the technology and proficiency would look good any any resumé.

Right now while crypto is not yet known or not yet have major role to the world but to businessman only I think educating crypto with students will not happen. But there are possibilities if crypto will boom generally.
