OKX Survey: 90% of US College Students Support Universities Offering Cryptocurrency Courses

Odaily News Cryptocurrency exchange OKX's latest survey this month shows that 90% of US college students and 87% of parents support universities offering cryptocurrency and blockchain courses, with 27% of students and 32% of parents believing such courses should be mandatory.

A 2025 review of 533 US universities with accredited business schools found that approximately 28% offer blockchain courses. Among surveyed students, 33% cited social media or influencers as their most important source of cryptocurrency information—nearly five times the number who chose schools, teachers, or professors; parents' primary source of information was cryptocurrency platforms and applications, accounting for 21%.

OKX surveyed 500 students and 500 parents via the online survey platform Pollfish, with respondents not recruited from OKX's customer base. OKX did not disclose the survey's weighting methodology, margin of error, or the proportion of respondents holding cryptocurrencies. (Cointelegraph)
