Educational Programs as a Tool for Enhancing Security in Blockchain Ecosystems

Yaroslav Ivanov

Abstract: This article addresses the use of educational programs as a tool for enhancing security in blockchain ecosystems. The relevance of the topic is driven by the growing popularity of decentralized technologies and the increasing number of users facing financial and technological risks. Despite the potential of blockchain in various fields, insufficient literacy and a lack of specialized educational initiatives present obstacles to effective adaptation and reducing system vulnerabilities. The objective of the study is to analyze existing approaches to blockchain-focused educational initiatives and to develop original recommendations for optimizing them to improve user security. The research revealed significant challenges, including insufficient attention to adapting educational initiatives for diverse audiences and limited integration of practical methods such as simulations and gamified elements to develop sustainable skills. It concludes that the integration of multimodal technologies and a focus on practical activities, including attack simulations and risk scenario modeling, can significantly enhance user awareness and protection. The materials presented will be valuable to financial literacy specialists, educational program developers, and blockchain company representatives interested in improving the security of their ecosystems.
