The University of California is now offering a class on cryptocurrency. Arizona State University has launched a blockchain research lab in collaboration with the Dash cryptocurrency. Stanford University began offering a Bitcoin class two years ago, and Fordham University started teaching students about cryptocurrency a year before that. Cambridge University is now including blockchain education as a core part of their Masters in Finance degree
The reality is that an increasing number of universities are starting up Bitcoin education classes, and this push is starting to filter down to high schools. Students, on a percentage basis, are much more well-versed in the cryptocurrency sphere than older generations (such as their teachers), so it makes perfect sense that there’s an increasing demand for such education to be implemented on campuses.
At what age do you think students should start learning about cryptocurrencies?

Maybe in high school level because they are more understandable compare to the young ones and I really think that this move will be a big thing in the future ,younger generation should really know cryptocurrency because this is the future.

How I wish that this will happen in our country soon because for me, this is a great preparation for the next generation about the next humbug thing to come. Hopefully the government will not go against it in order to make this good will succeed.
-
Thats a good idea. This will help equip the students with all the knowledge they need and help them make some money before they get out of school. I think other countries should learn from them.
-
Absolutely. Blockchain technology itself needs to have an entire school of thought to itself. It will absolutely change the world, and can be applied to just about anything. Crypto currency in general could be useful, but finance in general needs to be offered in the first place.
-
and I think too many people would be interested to go for this course, it should be introduced in other countries as soon as possible. but high school students are sensible but in that age nobody cares about future, they love all fun and games, it should be in college level.

when I was in college. My professor taught me about blackchain and bitcoin. but it would be better if it was taught to high school students. even basic. so. when they go to college they know about bitcoin. just random saying
-
very good that's what i expect in this country ,,
but learn about bitcoin better in school sma, smk, ma upward because the mind is farther and more understand from sd, smp, mi, mts .

Yeah studying basics in high school is also a nice idea so they have some idea when they go in college.
This way if high school students develop interest they can also start it,
