Piper can print encrypted paper wallets that you can also back up onto a flash drive.  So you can have the best of both worlds!

Hahaha

Physical bitcoins look like an awesome gift option.

Is anyone planning on getting family or friends a Bitcoin related gift this year?

I was thinking of getting some physical Bitcoin as gifts for people to hold on to, hopefully it's a present that keeps on giving. Grin

So guys, what have you got planned. Wink

buying a physical 1BTC is expensive (https://www.casascius.com/).  you might want to get a physical LTC instead  (https://forum.litecoin.net/index.php/topic,5223.0.html).   Way more reasonable and the price will continue to climb.

or get some of the USB miners for no more than 10-15 bucks.  Won't make u money but it will introduce them to the network and make "some" coins.   Just depends on your budget.

There are a few reasons trying to make Bitcoin illegal would backfire.

First is the technical problem. The name "Bitcoin" is arbitrary, so you can't ban that. Rather you have to ban people using computers in a certain way. The problem is Bitcoin is used very similar to using the Internet normally, so outlawing it could make many other "lawful" Internet actions illegal.

Second would be the enormous news coverage the attempted ban would bring. It would probably elevate the level of discussion on Bitcoin bringing in a lot more voices that otherwise wouldn't have heard of it. People would start debating if they should be allowed to freely choose to use it or not, because it would still operate globally. Also, making something widely illegal, like gambling, isn't always enforced at the state level. Nevada obviously is one example of a state enacting common sense regulation and exercising its own right to governance. Similar challenges are happening in states with marijuana laws now running counter to federal laws. Choice of Bitcoin use would probably be just as contentious, and might go to the Supreme Court.

Third the resulting attention from making bitcoin illegal would increase the now officially illegal use of it. Many people trying to build constructive law abiding businesses would likely rebel and refocus their efforts elsewhere.

Last, of course, is Bitcoin operates globally, so making it illegal in one place only makes that illegality seem quite totalitarian when its use is legal elsewhere, like Finland for example which seems very much in favor of it.

Good points.

I would do this considering kids already spend most of their money on toys/games/gift items.
