We already have a number of universities and schools accepting Bitcoin as a valid payment method. Although students still can’t pay their tuition and other charges using this cryptocurrency, they can now buy books and equipment from the on-site shops and university online stores using Bitcoin. Experts believe more universities will soon accept Bitcoin as an accepted currency.

Bitcoin is also very popular among school students. According to studies by Bradley University and its online masters in counseling department, the use of Bitcoin among students can help measure their success rates, which is in line with PATHS or Promoting Alternative Thinking Strategies; this is a method known for its effectiveness when dealing with cases of bullying and similar issues. With children having the ability to mine, trade and spend cryptocurrencies, they can develop a sense of confidence like never before.
