In light of a recent study conducted by a reputable virtual learning space, Study.com, which revealed the wide embrace of crypto by American parents, and college graduates and its incorporation into school curricula, several known public figures have also come out to back this innovation.
One of the people on this list is the CEO of TZ APAC, Colin Miles, who stated in an interview sometime in May that crypto might become a widely accepted trend in secondary and tertiary education curricula in three to five years.
The mayor of New York City, Eric Adams, also falls on this list as he pushed for the inclusion of blockchain technology and digital assets in the curricula of district schools while adding in the interview that everyone should introduce the teaching of blockchain technology and this cutting-edge attitude to their schools.
Another reputable personality who recently joined this list is Prince Philip of Serbia. In a talk with Cointelegraph at the Surfin' Bitcoin 2022 conference in Casino de Biarritz, France, on Thursday, Prince Philip expressed that part of the reason he's passionate about Bitcoin stems from the potential influence he sees it having on the education of children globally.
Filip Karaorevi, mostly known as Philip Karageorgevitch, is the Hereditary Prince of Serbia and Yugoslavia. The prince, who depicts himself as a Bitcoin (BTC) maximalist, intimated that a portion of his principal address at the crypto event, where he spoke at the second conference, will center on educating individuals inside and outside the field about Bitcoin's prospective advantages.
Prince Philip further explained the immense need for children to fully grasp the concept of Bitcoin and stated that the history of money is the most important thing for these kids. He also said this lesson was absent during his time in school and expressed his observation of the deterioration of education in today's world.

He continued his speech by bringing out an instance from his own family. He told people about the time his four-year-old son Stefan was curious and attempting to get some ideas about Bitcoin by observing his father. Prince Philip further expressed how his son's curiosity about Bitcoin came from his awareness of the digital currency and his observation of how he savored talking about it.
In July, Prince Philip allegedly claimed that the incorporation of Bitcoin was unavoidable for all nations with Muslim populations because of its nature and quality to be an excellent Sharia money.
While the BTC maximalist has always been well-known because of his title, he rose to prominence in the cryptocurrency community after declaring in an interview in March that Bitcoin symbolizes freedom, and it was something that he desires for everyone. Earlier this year, he also went to the Bitcoin Miami conference.
The prince, however, asserted that he lacked the right to proclaim Bitcoin as Serbia’s legal trend, unlike El Salvador, which did so on September 20.
We can only hope that more reputable and known figures like Prince Philip come out to express their support for digital currencies and their accompanying technology.
