សាកលវិទ្យាល័យ Bentley ដែលមានមូលដ្ឋាននៅសហរដ្ឋអាមេរិក ផ្តល់ភ្លើងខៀវលើការបង់ប្រាក់ថ្លៃសិក្សានៅក្នុង Bitcoin

បើទោះបីជា ទីផ្សាររូបិយប័ណ្ណ currently going through a ធ្លាក់ចុះ decline, the adoption of digital assets around the world is growing as governments and institutions become open to their use – including a small private university outside Boston.

Namely, Bentley University in Waltham, a city in the U.S. state of Massachusetts, is one of the first educational institutions in the country to accept tuition fee payments made in Bitcoin (BTC អ) Ethereum (សាកលវិទ្យាល័យ ETH) និងស្ថិរភាពកាក់ USD Coin (USDC), the university បានប្រកាស នៅថ្ងៃទី ៩ ឧសភា។

The business school will be accepting these payments through its partnership with one of the largest ការផ្លាស់ប្តូរអ៊ីនគ្រីប in the world (and the largest in the U.S.), Coinbase. It also plans to accept donations and gifts in crypto.

One of Bentley’s students and an early crypto adopter Alex Kim who launched the Bentley Blockchain Association in the fall of 2021, commented on the recent development, explaining that:

"សិស្សមានចំណាប់អារម្មណ៍ពិតប្រាកដក្នុងការដឹងបន្ថែមអំពី blockchain ហិរញ្ញវត្ថុវិមជ្ឈការ និងការវិនិយោគរូបិយប័ណ្ណគ្រីបតូ។ បច្ចេកវិទ្យាទាំងនេះកំពុងមានឥទ្ធិពលលើឧស្សាហកម្មដែលពួកគេនឹងត្រូវធ្វើការ”។

Thanks to the student interest, Bentley University has also introduced a new crypto finance course that will begin in the fall of 2022 and will focus on blockchain applications and decentralized finance (Defy).

Bentley on the importance of crypto

In its announcement, the school echoed Kim’s position, highlighting the increasing importance of digital assets in the global economy, the creation of startups, payments of salaries, payment tracking, and even minor things like purchasing tickets to games and concerts.

The business school also quoted a ការសិក្សា by the Pew Research Center, which has found that over 41 million Americans, or 16% of U.S. adults had invested in, traded, or used crypto. Furthermore, the school referred to Fortune Business Insights which បានព្យាករណ៍ the global crypto market would more than double by 2028.

Interestingly, in late March a school in Dubai took steps to bring crypto into the education sector by accepting tuition payments made in both Bitcoin and Ethereum through a digital platform that automatically converts crypto into the United Arab Emirates dirhams (AED).

Meanwhile, the entire crypto market is suffering a major decline as ច្រើនជាង $ 370 ពាន់លានដុល្លារ has left its market capitalization in a single week, as ហ្វីនបុល reported earlier. Its total market cap now stands at $1.37 trillion.
