El Salvador introduces Bitcoin Diploma 2.0, incorporating Bitcoin education into the national curriculum system

Odaily Planet Daily reports that El Salvador officially launched the "Bitcoin Diploma 2.0" educational program on February 24, 2026, upgrading the country's financial literacy curriculum. Led by the National Bitcoin Office (ONBTC), the new textbooks are distributed to public schools nationwide, and Bitcoin-related content is incorporated into sociology and mathematics courses.

The report states that the new curriculum covers topics such as the Lightning Network, monetary history, the central banking system, and free-market economics. Concepts like hash rate, difficulty adjustment, and UTXO models are explained through diagrams and case studies. The education department says approximately three hours of related classes will be scheduled each week.

Additionally, the program is being implemented alongside the deployment of AI teaching tools in about 5,000 schools. The report notes that as this educational initiative is launched, the Salvadoran government continues to advance its Bitcoin reserve strategy. (FinanceFeeds)
