Related to cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology in the national education system. Recently, the government announced the Bitcoin Diploma 2.0 program, which will be implemented in public schools starting from the 2026 school year.
The teaching content is designed to be visual, practical, and suitable for students' abilities. The program not only teaches about Bitcoin but also includes basic concepts of finance such as supply and demand, scarcity, and the operational mechanisms of the monetary system.
This is a strategic shift in the approach to education. Instead of merely promoting the use of cryptocurrencies, El Salvador is focusing on building awareness and technological competencies for the younger generation, with the expectation of creating a citizenry that is deeply knowledgeable about digital finance in the future.
🌍 The current state of teaching Blockchain worldwide
Currently, some countries around the world have begun to incorporate blockchain – or related content – into education, but most are still at a partial level or at higher levels such as university and elective programs:
🇸🇻 El Salvador
👉 As one of the pioneering countries to introduce Bitcoin/blockchain into the official curriculum from basic education to higher levels.
🇳🇿 New Zealand
👉 There are plans to integrate education about blockchain and digital finance into the national curriculum from 2026, aiming to equip skills suitable for the digital economy.
🏫 Popular in Universities and Higher Education
👉 Nearly 100 universities worldwide have opened blockchain or crypto courses, particularly in countries like Singapore, Australia, the US, Europe… but this is at the university level, not part of the national curriculum for primary/secondary education.
👉 However, noteworthy information includes:
- El Salvador and New Zealand are among the few countries incorporating blockchain knowledge into the national formal curriculum.
- Nearly 100 universities worldwide offer blockchain or crypto courses.
In summary, El Salvador and New Zealand are leading the world in the trend of integrating blockchain into formal education programs, while most other countries mainly incorporate blockchain as part of higher education, vocational training, workshops, or electives.
