Crypto vs Stocks: Understanding Risk in One Class

Crypto vs Stocks: Understanding Risk in One Class

Crypto vs Stocks: Understanding Risk in One Class

A single class for ages 12 to 16 that compares crypto, stocks and savings side by side. Teens see how risk and reward are linked and practice judging a claim that sounds too good to be true.

Class Experience

The class compares three charts covering the same years: a savings account, a broad stock index and a cryptocurrency. Teens work out what $100 would have become in each and how bumpy the ride was. They then read two real adverts and decide which claims hold up.
