Parents Want Their Children Educated About Crypto
A recent study conducted by the educational platform Study.com shows that 64% of parents in the United States think cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology should be integrated into their children’s education.
The Study.com report surveyed 884 American parents and 210 college graduates. Surveyed individuals were tested to ensure they had knowledge of crypto, blockchain technology, non-fungible token (NFTs), and the metaverse.
Study.com reported that 64% and 67% of both groups agreed to crypto education. In addition, 68% of the survey parents said they had crypto investments, while 39% had blockchain investments.
NFTs Left in a Gray Area
While there was a high consensus for crypto being taught in schools, there was a disagreement between the two groups about educating their children about NFTs and the metaverse.
According to the survey, only about 40% of the parents agreed that NFTs and the metaverse should be added to the curriculum.
