Gold, Frankincense and Myrrh. Only one of the Wise Men knew the value of a highly-liquid payment method with inbuilt scarcity (perhaps only one was Wise?).

Fast Forward two thousand years … How can a modern Magi gift the new ‘digital gold’ this Christmas? From our experience, not many newborns have a public wallet address…

If you are looking to spread the spirit of crypto Christmas, cardsofcrypto.com has the answer. In just a few clicks and using legacy currency (like US dollars), you can send anyone with an email address the gift of cryptocurrency.

Cards of Crypto was set-up to allow two noobs to send each other a crypto gift in the easiest way currently possible. We wanted to make gifting crypto as simple as sending an Amazon gift card.

How does this work? Well, there are three steps:

One: purchase the digital currency direct from us without going to an exchange or signing-up to a 3rd Party service. That’s right, Visa, and Mastercard are accepted.

Two: we store the purchased crypto in a newly-created-just-for-you-escrow wallet and encrypt it with the passphrase you provide.

Three: the recipient of the gift accesses the card, levels-up their regard for you, retrieves the private key to the escrow wallet and then moves the funds to a secure wallet if they want (see our other post for instructions).

As you can see, the only ‘blockchain knowledge’ necessary is for the recipient to be aware of cryptocurrencies!

Okay, why are you still here and what are you waiting for?

  • Do you know someone who has been crushed by the Bears? Cheer them up with a crypto Christmas card!
  • Got a niece or nephew who loves tech? Send them some digital currency and turn them into the next Satoshi!
  • Does your mum keep asking you “what’s a BitCoin?” Don’t tell her — show her with a crypto gift!
  • Someone in your blockchain community who’s been a hero in 2018? Send them a gift and get them to buy a digital beer on you!

Merry Christmas!
