Crypto education is a very important factor to push the adoption of crypto among the people. Education is only the key to pushing the whole world easily toward a better revolution with advancements in blockchain technology. 

To push crypto education in the United States, Wharton school, premier business schools,  stated that they will accept tuition fees through crypto payments. 

In the sixth week,  the cost for the educational program on digital assets and blockchain costs around $3,800. School management aimed to attract at least 1000 students in the US  for their “Economics of Blockchain and Digital Assets,” program. 

School management will accept crypto payment in the Coinbase’ wallet directly. But their payment adoption through Crypto mode will remain limited only for their digital assets based educational program only. While other educational programs will run on the traditional payment system. 

Wharton is trying their best to push crypto education through an introductory way. They are providing their crypto education program through Coursera.
