The updated course will explain complex economic processes to students. The program covers topics such as savings, cryptocurrency mining, monetary sovereignty, and the workings of global financial markets.
The curriculum was developed in collaboration with experts from WESPARK. The authors incorporated numerous visual aids, animations, and interactive tasks. One assignment encourages teenagers to design their own currency, helping them grasp the laws of scarcity and the principles of currency issuance.
The Bitcoin Diploma 2.0 course will be taught in public schools in El Salvador starting this academic year. ONBTC Director Stacy Herbert described the initiative as a crucial step towards improving financial literacy in the country.
In the future, the office plans to launch additional accelerators. These phases of the program will assist young Salvadorans in launching startups and establishing their own Bitcoin businesses.
It’s worth noting that in September 2021, El Salvador became the first country in the world to recognize Bitcoin as legal tender, mandating that services and merchants accept the cryptocurrency.
As of February 16, 2026, El Salvador's Bitcoin reserve reached 7564 BTC.
