This program seeks to educate users who are interested in a brief, basic introduction to the world of cryptocurrency trading.
- Users should interact with the provided cryptocurrencies, buying them when their prices decrease and selling them when they increase.
-
This user interacts with the provided coins, examining the way in which the prices of each coin fluctuate independantly of each other.
-
They see that the values of the coins change regularly, while the value of the money in their ledger remains static over time; this way, they realize that they can make more money by investing their ledger into various coins.
-
The regularity of the price fluctuations teaches the basic concept of a fluid market; buy low, sell high!
-
Teachers and educators can take this project a step further, encouraging students to create their own currencies and adding them to the native server-side database via the administrative tools built into the software.
-
This way, teachers can customize the content of the main educational tool to suit their own ends, building coins that are themed around their classrooms and lesson plans.
