Mr. Tiwari states that Palm Beach Group “want to demystify the process of owning and storing bitcoin,” adding that all new technological phenomena “can be intimidating. Whether it was using a mouse and keyboard for the first time, logging onto the Internet or even sending an email. In the early days of those technologies, these simple tasks represented major mental hurdles for most non-technical folks. Today a five-year-old can log on and send their grandparents an email.”

It smells scammy. For Bitcoin.com's sake, I hope it is not.

Well, good for them to launch that giveaway but it isn't clear to the statement for whom they might give, pick, is the giveaway has rules, how many is allocated for the giveaway and whatsoever that is needed for the transparency of the giveaway so that many are aware about it. Because if that was the case I would totally agree to odolvlobo that it smells a scam and fishy to think.
