Do not throw your sats to anybody! Be wise choosing your next "padawan"

This will be the third Christmas in a row that I give sats to two of my nephews.
reply
Any idea if their stack has grown beyond that?
reply
Yes. A little. They're just starting their careers. I'm anxious to see we're they're at this year. Last year the bear had them down.

I’ll be interested to hear an update!

I did it two years ago and I’ll never do it again. I’ll talk bitcoin until their ears fall off but I will not encourage or condone sat ownership unless it’s been proven to me that they are in the right security and practical familiarity mindset.

I gave a small amount on Bitcoin ($50) in a self custody wallet to my teenage nieces and nephews last Christmas and it made me enjoy Xmas gifts in a way I had not done for years. They have enjoyed seeing their Bitcoin grow, which the bear market and currency bull sentiments have helped. I am going to give them all the same amount of fiat again this year to explain how their fiat is designed to lose value but Bitcoin in not. It was fun to download the wallets on Xmas day (I used Muun) and make the transfer to them, I would highly recommend it for tech savvy teenagers who are starting to become interested in money. It certainly helped that last Xmas was closer to to bottom of the bear too.

i think it's only worth it if they're curious about it and will most likely use it in some capacity after receiving it

I've done it a bunch of times for birthdays and Christmas etc...
People don't appreciate it as a gift, they all end up either losing it or selling it.

Last Christmas I gave my cousin a small amount and I just told him, first study what Bitcoin is, solve it and you will see that it is the future. With this close halving I think it will be clear to you everything you have studied and learned
