Title: Cryptocurrency to be Taught in Schools?
Post by: Grey Storm on September 20, 2018, 01:11:38 PM
Hi guys!
I'm pretty sure that many of you have been experiencing difficulty on making other people aware of cryptocurrency and how it works, right? I myself find it hard to explain it even to my own family. Once you mention it to them, the first thing that comes to their mind is that it's a scam. Can't blame them though because the news about crypto scams are always hyped in social media and believe me, even my 70 year old mom has Facebook!

Anyway, I realized that this is the case because there has never really been any formal education about it at all. We knew about it only thru word of the mouth right and we only got to learn it slowly thru experience. This said, I'm thinking, what if it's taught in schools? Perhaps just start with those taking Accountancy or Banking and Finance courses to begin with, then eventually incorporate it to Mathematics subject or whatever in High School? After all, they were able to do that with banking, right? Why not with cryptocurrency? What do you think?

it's a good idea, but we also have to follow the existing government policies. we know that there are several countries that prohibit cryptocurrency. but, if all that supports, I think to introduce the cryptocurrency to the younger generation is a good thing. therefore, the development of cryptocurrency will also get better.

I think It is a good idea. Crypto currency to be taught in school. Because crypto currency is the future technology. It will be needed at the future.
