Giving bitcoins as a gift?

[Kittygalore]

whats crazy with giving a gift ? i know its not christmas yet but you can also give gift for other occasions and in your case to give thanks ( thanks giving gift ? ) btc is money only in a digital form and 10 to 15 btc are big enough , no person on earth will ignore that . if im to ask , it was a big deal if i buy the coin cheap and ill gave them away today due to the present value btc have but maybe for you it was fine so go ahead  .

That was my thought too, the only time that this will be weird is when you have an ulterior motive behind the gift, but otherwise, you can go ahead and gift it to her OP, if she really did help you a lot and you really want to gift her kindness.

I have been thinking...
Would it be totally crazy, if I gave 10-15 bitcoins to a woman, who helped me in a really really big way when I was younger.

I mean, would she think I was crazy if I do it?
Would it be a positive thing? Or just weird?

The coins were not worth much when I got them, so from that perspective, it's not THAT big a deal, right?

I would gladly give them to her, but I fear it could have a negative effect to what little friendship we have

And she is married with kids, so while I will always like her, there is no hidden agenda on my part here.   

For her to be not shocked, tell her that you bought it at a very low price that you don't mind giving it to her. As you said, she helped you a lot when you were young so tell it that you feel indebted because of that. I think you two are close or know each other for a long time so I don't think she will give it a deep meaning. If you still hesitating to give it that you think will affect your friendship, give it anonymously to her and see her reaction. If she feels scared that it is from a criminal then admit that it was you then tell her the reason.

Lol, 10 to 15 BTC is a lot of money. Doesn't matter if the coins weren't worth much when you got them, what matters is the current value. But if you really want to give her the money, then who are we to stop you. It's not weird, but kinda weird to see a random dude give like a shit ton of money out of no where.
The husband might be a bit shocked for a while, but trust me he won't care much as soon as he sees all those money (as long as her sweet little wife is very loyal to him).

Well paying back to the person who helped you alot to go through the hardest time wasn't an obligation but it all depends on you especially when that person are not waiting for a return of its good deed. But actually giving bitcoin as a gift is such a wonderful gift to her and a very valuable gift but make sure that the person that you are giving a bitcoin knows how to exchange it in fiat in case  and also knows the uses of it.

[bosede1]

Why must it be Bitcoin, there something called Utility, Usefulness and scale of Preference something might be useful but does not posses any utility to the person that you want to give. From the illustration you give you know her so well giving this bitcoin is it her pressing need or you want her to sell off the bitcoin to get whatsoever she needs or has a means of investment. Ponder on this

It is really crazy thing to me. Do you think about the current price of bitcoin? Obviously she will be surprised if you give her 10-15 btc at this time. It is a great way to gift financial thing by avoiding fiat currency. It sounds good and you can go for it. Good wishes for you!

[ChiBitCTy]

That seems like quite a lot to give to someone regardless of what they did for you.  I mean hell, wouldn't she be pretty happy even if you just gave her one bitcoin?  It seems like to me you may have a crush on her still ( maybe I am wrong about this ), so wouldn't her husband be upset if you did so?  I dunno, I say give her one or two, not that many.

[Leviathan.007]

Actually, I guess the idea is not really new and already discussed here in forum. The idea of giving bitcoins as gifts is really nice because if you give the bitcoins as gifts to someone who is not familiar with bitcoin, you can help them by giving some motivation to do some investigation about bitcoin. That's actually how I got familiar with bitcoin by receiving my first bitcoins as birthday gift from my girlfriend a few years ago.

[Cling18]

Giving back the goodness that she has done to you isn't being crazy but you should make sure that she knows how to access and use Bitcoin. Since she has a family, it will surely be a big help for her and, to be honest, that's already too much for her unless you already earned a lot. If you're having doubts, you can use your Bitcoins to help her in other ways like putting up a small business for her. Just think of wiser ways to help so it would be beneficial for her and her family in a long run.

Someone had to deserve a lot because he doubts that someone would just donate almost $ 1 million. Either you really have them for such a sum of money or it's someone very special ...

[matchi2011]

That's a lot of Bitcoin. With the Hugh price of Bitcoin now, I won't want to give out so much bitcoin because the price will be double of this in months.

Well, it still depends how this person is much close to you. Left for me, I won't be giving it out and that's cause I want to see how much my coin would be.

Well if you are not sincere in your gift giving then you might as well not give bitcoin as a gift, isn't that the point of gifting someone, it doesn't matter what will be its value today and tomorrow as long as it is a sincere thing for you to do.

Should be that way, if you really love giving the gift there's nothing to look upon, just give it and let the reciever to
decide to whatever he'll do about your gift.

The value is not important but the sincereness of the giver is what matter the most. Who knows maybe they'll learn
more about bitcoin and thank you deeply by giving them the opportunity.

You can really tell that this someone is very special because you wont be giving out that big amounts if you dont really have those kind of treatment to someone special.

Its his money though and no matter how small or big that he would give into that woman then it wouldnt matter.Im surely that it would be accepted knowing that it is

really a big amount.Not to say that woman does really love money but who doesnt want on having almost dollars?

I have several questions about it:
1. Are you sure to give that much money to someone else?
2. Does she know about BItcoin?
3. What is your real intention of giving her that much Bitcoins? It may be secret but the reason may become the exact thing why you should or shouldn't do it, just think again by yourself.
4. Do you both still become good friends? If yes, why don't you try to talk while joking regarding Bitcoin, and what if I give some bitcoin to you? You will see her expression at the time
5. he is married, so think also about her husband whether he will be jealous or not. or maybe he will be also very happy. But you must also tell the husband about your intention giving that super gift

[iTradeChips]

You are a very generous person. Question really is if she is willing to accept the gift. Since it is like an asset and has big monetary value, she might take it the wrong way. Give her a physical gift first. Then give her the bitcoins once she is ready. Also talk to the Husband, he might take this in a wrong way but show to him that you are grateful of her help and you just want to give it all back as a token of gratitude.

[just_Alice]

Though it is a very generous and kind move on your side, if you do this as a sudden surprise - she might freak out. Also, her husband may not feel very happy about that, it might look to him as if you're trying to buy her off with that money, even though it's not true. On the other hand, if you ask her opinion about this - she will most likely refuse to take it because it's huge money and many people just can't accept such things.
I think the best way to express gratitude is to help her financially rather than just give her the money. For instance, it would be perfect if she dreams of starting a business or something like that and you might invest in her. In my view, it's a win-win situation. She will be glad that you take interest in her self-development and help her with that, also this won't trigger a negative reaction from her husband, because this looks like an investment and help, which is ok. And most importantly, you will know that this money won't do her any harm, because these things happen frequently. Instead, you'll help the girl you like to pursue her dream.

If you have good financial conditions and 10-15 bitcoins are nothing to you, why not give 5 or 6 bitcoins to that woman as a friend and spend the rest to help people who really need it?
This is just an idea and you decide for your own money but in this case you have also given some bitcoins to your friend as a token of appreciation.
And you may be able to pray for 100 families by helping people who really need it.

That could really work, I mean 10 bitcoin is a lot of money when converted to fiat so giving back to the community isn't a bad idea but that is up to OP, whether he wants to do the charity or give it all to the friend as a token of gratitude.

[pankowri]

Not a bad idea but you have to consider some factors working here. The most important factors are, Is she willing to handle BTC? Is she interested in that? Will she get benefit from that? Does she take permission from her husband? And which types of gift can make her happy? If you don't know all the answers then you can discuss them with her frankly. A very good piece of advice is don't try to make or keep any relationship with a married person, you can pray that The Almighty may make her happy and safe.

You are right. If that woman does not know about bitcoin and having difficulty, maybe he can give money to her to use the money to survive and save the rest money. That will be useful for her because she will not have to worry about money. After all, he already has that money. If that woman knows about bitcoin, that will not be a problem for her to use bitcoin. But I guess that woman does not know about bitcoin.

[mbe48]

That's a very positive thing, but I just want to know if the lady knows what Bitcoin is? From performance to Bitcoin price? If the woman doesn't know at all, there is a chance that she will find out herself and then when she finds out that the price is so high, maybe she will sell everything. That would make the price of Bitcoin go down if you just sold without thinking. So my advice if that happens please before you give 10-15 Bitcoin, tell me the reason for giving it and how to use it so that Bitcoin assets can be used as long-term investment capital so that the price of bitcoin remains high and does not go down.
Haha I find it very interesting, in expressing feelings through Crypto assets.

[Obi theo]

Giving Bitcoin as a gift this a first, 10-15 BTC wow! A gift would always be a gift but I hope she knows the value of what you giving her, but it good show of appreciation, BTC
On her earn could be a gift , money or anything.
