Cryptocurrencies or digital tokens are the rage in financial markets these days. So why not buy a crypto token or currency this Father’s Day and sit back to watch his reaction.
Gifting a cryptocurrency may sound like an expensive option. But there’s no need to buy a complete Bitcoin token or any other altcoins. Just create a separate crypto wallet for your old man and buy a fraction of any cryptocurrency of your choice.
But before presenting this gift, make sure you know all the details of the digital coin and be ready with an explanatory speech – for the gift may or not interest him, but he will most certainly ask, “what the heck is crypto?”
Few ‘financially woke’ dads may just be happy to get the crypto gift and can end up lecturing you on volatility.
But others spent entire lives using conventional money and the concept of crypto may be complex. Simplify it by beginning with the basics like blockchain technology and decentralized finance (DeFi). And as you go deep, also teach him about initial coin offerings (ICOs) and crypto mining.
You can choose to gift a physical crypto ledger or a cold wallet that you can easily buy from e-commerce apps.
