There’s an organization in South Africa called Bitcoin Ekasi that pulled off a pretty cool move—giving out scholarships in Bitcoin. As long as kids attend the Bitcoin Mi Primer classes on time and do their homework diligently, they get a certain amount of BTC every week, which they can spend directly at nearby stores.

Honestly, I’m kind of jealous. If I had this kind of perk when I was in school, I’d probably be sitting in the front row every day, grinding math problems until 3 a.m. If I didn’t get first place in my grade, I’d have no one to blame but myself for not working hard enough.
