Bitcoin gift to wife on wedding.

[bakasabo]

If you gonna present her Bitcoin, be sure to make that presentation properly. Not a piece of paper with address and seed phrase, not a ledger which you gonna refill later or have it already set. This has to be original. Otherwise if you do it on public, those who are not aware of crypto, will think that you gave her a simple USB flash drive, or a coupon for something.

P.S. How about creating a special NFT about your wedding and give it to her ?

Although I still studied, I invested a small amount in Bitcoin. I will get married if I get a good job. Many people give many things to their wives as wedding gifts, I have a different plan. I am planning to gift bitcoin to my wife on her wedding day. Bitcoin is still illegal in my country so I invested with caution. On my wedding day I want to gift half of my investment to my wife.
Should I gift bitcoin to my wife? I want your advice

As you've mention Bitcoin is still illegal in your country so why would you give her something that could put her in danger?
I know that you just want to make it unique but we should also consider the receiver does they want the gift that we would give them? would they appreciate it just like how they would appreciate normal gifts or how would they feel about it?
If your wife doesn't know about crypto or Bitcoin I think she wouldn't really appreciate it much.

If it is illegal, then that is a big problem, and it is not a good idea, unless both of them know crypto or bitcoin. If he is the only one who knows bitcoin, then it is not a good idea to gift her, but again, it is always a good start or like a stepping stone for his wife to know bitcoin. For sure, she will appreciate it, as we know the value of it, but the case is that it is illegal, so for sure she wants other gifts aside from it.

This should have been better discussed if you had done the marriage already and gifted her the Bitcoin before sharing your intention, it would have been very interesting to know her reaction over these gift because not so many people are aware of BTC. However, ensure she's enlightened on things about Bitcoin before gifting her BTC to study if she will have passion for BTC because she might feel ungrateful because she doesn't know the worth of the gift and not necessarily telling her about your intention on the weeding day.

Quite an important point here and I agree with what you say. Why try to make something difficult for a wedding gift because when you say it's illegal, there are definitely situations where we can relate to sanctions and giving a gift like this won't it only make things difficult for the wife herself.
Even though being in bitcoin is something good, of course we also can't bring everyone into conditions where that is not allowed. Even if you can do it doesn't mean your wife also has to do it.
I don't support or suggest anything about this because indeed this is still hindered by regulations, so you should wait and don't be too impulsive with bitcoin investments.

[AnonBitCoiner]

Why you need to give it? and why it must be Bitcoin? if you're just want to teach Bitcoin to your wife in order to make she know how to access your Bitcoin when something bad happen, you don't need to give your coins to her! Even worst, Bitcoin is illegal in your country, your wife might tell to her friend or her family and force you to stop invest in Bitcoin, what do you think?

You are right that if bitcoin is illegal in your country then you should not give it to your wife as a gift because you know the fact that female cannot save the secret. You will think about the good time through bitcoin but perhaps it will make you hopeless and you will be unable to do anything.

I think that if it is banned in your country then you should avoid this thing instead of spreading this news because it can be risky for you.

 Bitcoin investment is good source of income and once a person get profit from it he can never leave so it is important to not involve your wife in such activities.

Of course you can, you will reward your wife later with half of your bitcoin assets. However, if you feel that your wife would appreciate more physical gifts like rings, diamonds and gems you should consider this option. You can give other gifts that have special meaning and can remind him of you. If you still want to give Bitcoin, my advice is that you can combine these two options by giving Bitcoin Assets and jewelry with Bitcoin designs as gifts.

But considering that in your country bitcoin is still illegal, it's better if your intention to reward bitcoins should just be aborted. Because at the time of the wedding, of course, many family and friends were present, of course this will make your wedding widely spread and of course the news of your marriage will reach the government. The intention of the heart is to please your wife, even if you have problems with the law later.

Btw, an idea like yours has happened in my country in 2021, a couple wants to get married with a dowry of 2 bitcoins and this news is widely spread on tv. Sorry the news is in my country language, you can use translation.

If you need a very candid advice from me, I will strongly advice that you don't do that. She may not really appreciate it because she doesn't know the value. Get her something she can relate well with and appreciate, not something that will be a mystery to her.

There are very few countries where the bitcoin is legal so this does not mean that people in those countries do not buy bitcoin. People who have knowledge about bitcoin, they keep on accumulating it no matter if they live in crypto friendly country or in a region where the use of crypto is illegal.

If your wife knows about crypto, then this may be the best gift you can give it to her. People usually give gold to their wives, I would rather suggest to start giving bitcoin instead of Gold.  If money is important to you then note that the ROI is very high on Bitcoin as compared to Gold or any other asset.

They will become a family after the wedding, most likely they will have a common budget, so I don’t see the point in such gifts, especially if the wife is not familiar with the topic of cryptocurrencies, then for her this gift can be tantamount to giving her a wedding gift money.

It is better, if the wife does not know that her husband is buying bitcoin, tell about it and say how much bitcoin they have, no need to try to share something from the first days of marriage. If you decide to become a family, now you have everything in common, if you want to give bitcoin, give all your bitcoins, not half.

[glendall]

the main thing before you give bitcoin to your wife as a gift, my question is does your wife know what bitcoin is, if you don't know it's better to buy her real gold. he will be happy with you giving some of your btc, because not many married women want to know what bitcoin is, what they think is how their family is safe and prosperous in household matters,
I say so because I am a housewife, worthy of your wife. and I know crypto from one of my social media friends, not me finding out myself

If I were you, I would not give my wife a Bitcoin if I had a lot of money. There are many gifts to give your wife, but the finest is something she always says. I suppose your wife was unfamiliar with Bitcoin, thus I believe she became curious and surprised that you chose Bitcoin as your gift. Some women are quite materialistic, and I believe that gifting Bitcoin can make them happy. Because of how you treat them, you may be the reason why your wife is different from before. I believe it is also best if I provide my wife knowledge of cryptocurrency as a gift.

I'm sure brides dream many things for their wedding day, things that maybe they have been dreaming around since they were kids, and I'm pretty sure bitcoin is not on that list If you want to buy BTC as future investment for you, as a couple, that's a great idea, but I would never give her BTC on wedding day, choose something that you know she will actually love. Don't screw up that day.

Sincerely if you ask me, there are many thing to give ones spouse on a very special day like a wedding day but bitcoin is certainly the least of them. If I may ask does your wife know about Bitcoin? Does she know to trade or store Bitcoin? What does she know about the safest bitcoin wallet? Women treasures physical gifts a lot and there's no better time to wow her than your wedding day or night. My advice for you is to look for something lovely and tangible and present to your wife based on your financial strength and the bitcoin gift can come later.

Although I'm on the side of sentimentality here and advising him to actually giving her wife something that holds some sort of emotional value instead of something that she might not even have a stark of idea like bitcoin, I wouldn't really say it's a bad choice like what you're trying to point here. Sure, wedding day, sentimentality, emotions are on an all-time-high outpour but at the same time securing your married future financially is also something that you have to take into account. I wouldn't really give it to her on her wedding day and would only give it to her perhaps some other time but having someone in your life be this thoughtful to give you something that is this cool and future-proof is not so bad, which is I'm with you on that.

there is nothing wrong with your wedding gift to your wife, as long as the goal is to be able to share and provide education at the same time about bitcoin which is still illegal in your country and requires an initial explanation so there is no misunderstanding. giving bitcoin prizes is certainly an investment that can be used in the long term with all the benefits in the end.
but because it's still illegal, please also don't expose it too much because you might run into problems later, but about giving bitcoins I really appreciate that.

[bocyaj]

It’s happy to here you are going to married soon.Secondly you are good forum member by encouraging the bitcoin with others,sharing the crypto knowledge with your friends it’s essential one.By sharing more crypto knowledge,the educated people all around the world can do better knowing about crypto currency.How much you had earned from the crypto currency is my eager towards the earning.Also check your wife had interest in knowing more about the cryptocurrency.When she interested,you should teach her more about the crypto currency and then gift the most valuable bitcoin.

find a good job first before completely planning to give her a bitcoin because once bitcoin increase to a million dollar before you finding a job? Am not sure if you will still consider this gift giving.
and also why need to give a wife a gift when after marriage everything that you own will be hers as well?as conjugal property .

[Issa56]

First of all congratulations on your new married life.

If you can read and understand the post well, you will see that he is not married yet, he is just a student and he is planning to marry after graduating from school and getting a job. also he didn't mention either the person he is planning to marry knows about bitcoin or not.

As you've mention Bitcoin is still illegal in your country so why would you give her something that could put her in danger?

I don't know why some people will put themselves in problem just because they want to promote bitcoin, if you know bitcoin is illegal in your country, then why will you have to promote bitcoin publicly, when you know that you are endangering your life and your wife's own, if bitcoin is illegal in your country, then stop promoting bitcoin publicly, wait till when it will be legal then you can promote it publicly. if you really want to promote bitcoin, then do that privatly, nobody will know. if you want to help your wife invest in bitcoin, then buy the bitcoin and hand over everything to the wallet to her privately.

I know that you just want to make it unique but we should also consider the receiver does they want the gift that we would give them? would they appreciate it just like how they would appreciate normal gifts or how would they feel about it?
If your wife doesn't know about crypto or Bitcoin I think she wouldn't really appreciate it much.

what's the purpose of gifting your wife a bitcoin and after receiving it she ended up selling it back immediately again, she is a woman and you are giving her a wedding gift, from my perspective i believe she wont really appreciate bitcoin as a gift. The best thing to do is know know what your wife needs, then it will determine the kind of gift you will be getting for her.

[bakasabo]

She will definitely gonna appreciate it as a gift, if only the next day Bitcoin price grows But if she will see a price reduction during a good period of time, she might really get disappointed. OP, also think how you will look in father-in-law and mother-in-law eyes, and other guests. If you gonna give your present on public, are you sure everyone gonna understand your gift? If you do it privately, she will tell her parents about that gift anyway. If they are not tech guys, and she is not a tactical person, you will end with a guy who gave a virtual gift... I would better think of a more romantic gift, but later just give half of private key to her.

Honestly, I don't think mentioning bitcoin in this case makes sense. The wedding day is the most important in every woman's life, so do whatever makes them as happy as possible. If the bride doesn't know anything about bitcoin, it would be ridiculous to give it to her, I really don't like the idea.

Moreover, he said that bitcoin is not legal in his country, and giving bitcoin on his wedding day is no different than declaring to everyone that he is investing in bitcoin. This may cause his small family more trouble than make his wife happy.

It's not everyone' cup of tea, especially if Bitcoin exists in a legal fog in your land. But, dont ignore the high growth potential of this unorthodox gift. If the bride and her clan are progressive, they might appreciate this future-ready move.

Consider this, Bitcoin, despite its wild price swings, has charted an ascendant path in the long run. If the bride can hodl, the gift might balloon in value. It's a risk, but isn't investing always a gamble?

However, I concede that this demands tactful handling to sidestep legal or societal consequences. Educating the bride and her family about Bitcoin before presenting it seems sensible. It could spark intriguing chats about decentralized finance and money' future at the reception!
