Big thanks to all of those that replied and proposed altcoins and teams that have paths of solutions or solves that big problem that is the (re)distribution of their coins to newcomers without going thru hell loops (aka, fiat -> btc -> alt).
I thought after a full year (2016), more alt teams would have found ways to redistribute coins easily, legally (KYC).
Does offering packs of coins, as "gift cards", respect laws(for example, US laws) or is a gray area?
As for the US laws, there's nothing illegal about giving someone a paper wallet that's linked to a cryptocurrency. I suppose that would be the easiest way to give someone something like a gift card. Residents of New York (and I believe another state) may not be able to use an exchange, but they can still hold coins and trade them privately.
