Bitcoin book as surprising gift

[bakasabo]

Hope this is not going to be a Valentines Day gift.

You can create this gift more interesting, you can add a QR code with a wallets private key somewhere in the middle of the book, or hide parts of private key parts in the book. This will stimulate to read it.

Hope this books is not like encyclopedia and is written in easy language. What is the idea of this book anyway? To give basic information about cryptocurrency? In our digital era, wont it be better and easier to get this kind of info through video, as it is easier to visualize what you learn about?

You have played an important role by giving people  that are close to you bitcoin book. Gifting books is one of the best gift to offer anyone  because of the knowledge that will be gained from the book,  you have just added values that will change life for better.  This gift will be totally  great,  if those who have received the gift are readers and have been willing to know more about bitcoin.

It is appreciated that you took this approach. For a person who has never heard of Bitcoin before, I know that it could be exciting. Therefore, I had to share Bitcoin with those that don't know about it! We shouldn't miss such a great opportunity to introduce bitcoin to the world. A book on Bitcoin, blockchain, and other branches may be an ideal source of information. But meeting other people with the same interests would be great, discussing events, predicting price fluctuations, sharing strategies, discussing new coins, sharing links, and giving advice.

It'd probably be that I'd recommend books in the first place to people who actually like to read, and honestly, they're rather rare. Most people nowadays have quite short attention spans, especially on a completely new topic, and a rather complicated one (from the outside) like Bitcoin (or crypto in general). I had a few experiences with my friend first but that was because they were rather interested in it, they were asking stuff about what it is, how it works, and mainly how to earn money from it (which is their main motivation I think).

The main motivation for most people is usually how they would make money. That’s like the general motivation for almost everyone these days. When I also talk to my friends about cryptocurrency, they usually ask me how they would make money and how much they can make. So, it’s nothing new at all. And as for sending books to people, I wouldn’t think that’s meant for my friends, because they wouldn’t read it. Most people find it difficult these days to read books, they would prefer watching videos online. You would only see a few who are ready to open books and read these days.

Recently, I have taken a step to create awareness about cryptocurrency among the people I know (Friends, cousin etc.). There are few books on cryptocurrency in Bengali language. I haven’t read all as the title was stupid. I have read one by Mostafa Tanim, "Bitcoin: Blockchain and Other cryptocurrency". I have gifted two times so far, one to my cousin and another one to my friend. What I'm doing is ordering the book online directly to their address though rokomari.
This is what I think the best approach to send a message that they should learn about it. Share your opinion/experience with such activities.

I saw many Bangla books about Blockchain. But what if Bangladesh Govt. legalize the crypto industry. Our neighbor's nation totally legalize crypto with tax regulation. Now very few countries in the world are prohibited to using crypto. When I go to any crypto service site, I first to their geo-restriction page, are they really support Bangladesh or not?
However, Rokomari is a great online book shopping store, my experiences were also great, btw আপনি আমাকেও গিফট করতে পারেন

How to give gifts that are unique, useful and educational about crypto. maybe it can be imitated by sharing reading books about cryptocurrencies, Bitcoin and also about blockchain.
If they (your friends and relatives) can understand and are interested in bitcoin and cryptocurrencies, then you have succeeded in educating them. If they start asking questions, guide them and don't get caught up in things that will harm them, explain about the risks that will be faced. it will be better.

The idea that you have applied is not  bad, but the only problem is that you said you haven’t read the books, so don't you think that it would be wrong sending books that you don’t even know anything about to some of your friends? It needs to be books that you have read, that way you would know the quality of contents that are in these books and whether they really explained the concept of Bitcoin accurately before sending it to your friends and family.

You don’t just send random books to people, when you don’t even know the contents of the book. So, it would be best that you go through the books and read them, and know which one would be best to send to them.

The intention is good, and is well appreciated as being expressed here. However, @dezoel is right that OP should’ve at lest read the book or familiarize with its content, to see if the book is has credible contents and is enticing enough for the receivers to read it. I think that it would be great to accompany them through their journey of learning about crypto.

Is this digital book also available for download free of cost too or only the paid physical copy was available which you gifted to the friends ?
Anyways in both the cases, it is a good initiative from you to develop awareness about bitcoin but usually people find it cumbersome to read the books when everything is available in the form of videos tutorials. However, for a starting point, it is good that people have something in hand where they can read about it and later learn more about it online.

A book is always good to read, especially when it comes to speculative markets and investment, when we learn about the market we do so based on the experiences of some market speculators, the advice of some chartists and especially the experiences and theories of the best on Wall Street, everything you learn in books like Warren Buffet, Livermore, Wyckoff, Malkiel Burton and others is totally applicable to the BTC market, however it is difficult to make a book about the BTC market because nobody has the full knowledge of how volatility can be dealt with, this is the ingredient that has to be treated with extreme care in this market.

Gifting Books as a gift on a special occasion is a good introductory initiative towards Bitcoin and Cryptocurrency awareness. But have to take feedback about it. Because Bengali is the regional language, what is mentioned in that book is a must to know. The writer's views or experiences might be personal.

Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies are hard to understand just by reading. It needs practical experience. Personal use of Bitcoin and other Cryptocurrencies with its environment can give more confidence and mobility in the current crypto industry. Including all safety and security are the most important preventive majors for crypto assets.
