Hmm...you might need to specify the question a bit more.
Do you mean value? There's one set of questions around value: monetary value is one-dimensional, pretty much by definition (i.e. when we pay a monetary sum, it represents our best projection onto one-dimension of the multiple dimensions of the thing we are buying - though we invariably value these imperfectly). How would this work for education, I wonder? Very difficult to assess & collapse those multiple dimensions.
Do you mean long-time repositories of knowledge? How we preserve knowledge over time and prevent corruption (accidental or deliberate) is something that Arweave ethusiasts can comment on.
Or do you mean consensus? There's another set of questions here, but these are even trickier because we struggle to reach consensus as to what constitutes historical truth, or what values & subjects we should teach. These are the domain of messy, human politics, and I don't think blockchain offers tremendous insights here, TBH.
IMO, if you want some Nostr & BTC related topics, it would be better to teach your students about (i) the history of debasement of fiat currency & inflation; (ii) the idea of separation of money & State; (iii) media / institutional capture and the importance of free speech.
