Since the cryptocurrency or electronic currency slowly builds it name in the industry and many different countries accept it in all commercial and financial purposes; having a subject in college like bitcoin is great idea that will enlighten some college student, especially finance students to their respective studies. Cryptocurrencies is a broad topic that needs to be study well and get well inform. In our generation there are lots of inventions and a system, created to improve human’s life. We need to innovate our system and ourselves as well; to be able to adopt what’s new in the society.

Actually people in most of the country still don't know about bitcoin. It could be a good decision by the upper level people of a country to spread the knowledge by doing study what you mentioned in college. But I think not so need to have a degree or course but it could be so fine if they have a special books for study in must. There's have a another idea keeping too many book in the library about cryptocurrency they could be so excited and come in touch with bitcoin and take advantages from that digital currency as well.

I am expecting some courses based on the Blockchain technology because it's not just only about money. Blockchain as a technology has a huge potential and it can save a tremendous amount of time in many sectors.

We have already started testing Blockchain technology and thus I do see blockchain as a study option and it won't remain limited to BTC.

* Russia's Government to Test Blockchain Land Registry System.

* ICICI Bank executes India’s first banking transactions on blockchain in partnership with Emirates NBD.

There is some good news about education too,

* Australian Primary School Students Explore Bitcoin.

* Top 5 University Bitcoin Courses.

Bitcoin is not going to be a college course, but the blockchain has become a college course, and bitcoin may be written as an example into college textbooks to teach the world how great it is.

This maybe possible to become a part of some courses like business, economics or in all IT courses but as a become a major course in college this topic will not take long enough to learn. If the school will apply this to a bachelor course i don think it would be a best course to learn crypto currencies 4 years is long enough to learn crypto.

It's possible because bitcoin and other cryptos has become a great hit this year which make them popular around the world and if bitcoin will become acceptable throughout the world I think it is very important that young ones will learn it so that the development in crypto currencies will continue as well as the demand and popularity will be world wide

I think that this is quite possible. Progressive theme, aimed at the future and improvement of our lives, the development of technology, this topic needs specialists and they will have to be trained, I'm sure one hundred percent that it will be, and even is already there.

Maybe in the future but for now we should focus more on establishing the trust of people on cryptocurrency. A lot of people are still not believing on this great technology but I know time will come and many people will now use it. Bitcoin offers great system, and let you earn money over time.

What do you mean major? Is there a major in United States Dollar? There is none right? So it is more like, major in sales and such that is included in trading. Probably that's a better thing to say rather than BTC major.

There already lots of colleges that teaches cryptography around the world and making people acknowledge information about hashing and whatsoever related to the blockchain technology and it's specificity .Furthermore people who are having economy degrees already study economical models and have a clear vision about pumping and dumping which is mainly what's happening to all cryptocurrencies from one time to another . A single major that gathers all the technological and economical aspects of bitcoin might be hard to set up since it unites two completely different fields but such an futurist invention should certainly be properly taught in colleges .

No. I don't think bitcoin or cryptocurrencies will ever become a course or a degree in college. Although, it is possible that it will be integrated or become one of subject matters under computer-related courses/degree or under economics. Moreover, I don't think all schools will be able to adapt this subject easily in their curriculum (if ever it did become a course) because of the underlying principles that requires blockchain technology as such, unless they do have the knowledge, facilities, and equipment.

basically bitcoin is like just any other currency or money around the world. It can be used to trade or buy something you like, but I think making bitcoin as a major subject is not possible, maybe included in a subject as a top, that would be possible, and if you observe, there are no major subjects that only focus on one single currency. I think for now this would not be possible.

I agree to the idea of teaching cryptocurrency to the college students since our kind of living is now changing from traditional to more advance but less complicated one. if ever this will be implemented, I think the one who will be benefited the most are the college students taking business related coursrs and financing related courses. Through this, they will become more competetive when they are already in the industry.

But other courses which that are not related to business and financing should also have the chance to study this because they may also apply this in their respective fields. Therefore, I think it would be better if basic topics of cryptocurrency must be included in their Basic Economics subject.

It can also be studied in college. To better understand most people. To fully understand how people use or benefit bitcoin. It is best to study it in business courses. In order to have their knowledge about the business they will work someday. And that's fine, for while they're working? they earn money to provide for their education Smiley.

It may not become a course of study or a degree in college because if ever universities might just associate it as a major subject or a minor subject depending on the course or degree you are taking. I think it would be great if people will start on knowing more about bitcoin and crypto currency. Crypto currency might be the main currency in the future and it will help a lot of people in the future.

I believe it's a given that the subject of distributed ledgers, cryptography, and blockchains will definitely be a subject at school, and may even be entire degrees in the future, this space is transforming society Wink.
