First of all, congratulations on getting married.
Unfortunately, I don't have a wife yet.
If I ever get a wife, I would like to give her Bitcoin as a gift like you did.

I also don't have a wife like you, and hope that one day when we get a partner, we can both do the same things OP did.

I think it would be a good experience for both of us.
The value of Bitcoin will be better than that of gold jewelry.

Of course this will be something romantic in a wedding because it will be different from other weddings. Indeed, in many countries the culture will definitely be different, we also need to pay attention, if in a country that prohibits bitcoin this will certainly be a problem. Thankfully in my country it is not prohibited, this is a good opportunity to plan because bitcoin is also like gold even though bitcoin is not physically real, but if your future wife already understands about bitcoin, she will definitely be happy to accept a bitcoin dowry rather than gold or diamonds.

I fear you did a terrible mistake. Now once she wants to divorce you, she will be aware you are a Bitcoin investor and will demand 50% of your BTC holdings, besides the sum of Bitcoins you already gave her. We can't trust people nowadays to share informations about our investments and so on, especially if we are talking about a woman who you met or married recently... I don't know if it has always been like this in the world, but all the sworn love by a woman today, may totally change in a matter of few months to nothing or even contempt, scorn, disdain... Be careful with your finances and keep it private for yourself until you are certain the person by your side is really worthful of your trust.

I think you dont understand how system works. She can only hope to get 50% of what he gained during marriage. All the BTC holdings before marriage will belong to him. However, the knowledge about BTC opens her possibilities for future. She could have not knows about holdings, but now she is aware that there is an amount that is probably is increased when he buys more. But in general, it is unhealthy vision of situation, when you think about losing half if you get married. If a persons have such idea, then he should not get married at all.

I promised in a post on this forum a few months ago. I had a plan to give half of my bitcoin investment to my wife after marriage. I got married a few days ago. First I gave my wife all the ideas about Bitcoin. I was surprised to hear my wife, as soon as I told my wife about Bitcoin, she said that she had heard the name of Bitcoin before. I thought it would be very difficult to convince girls. But my wife was able to understand about Bitcoin very easily. I gave him half of the investment as per my word. He is very happy to get Bitcoin. My wife plans to hold bitcoin for a long time. Now you can say it is better to give girls gold jewelery than bitcoins. I have given gold ornaments to my wife as per her wish. Have any of you managed to teach your wife Bitcoin? Have any of you gifted bitcoin to a wife like me?

Congratulations. Your wife is fortunate to have a husband like you. However, it is important to be prepared for the possibility that she may decide to sell it after holding onto it for a few years. Once she sells it, and if you are not prepared for this outcome, it could potentially cause a conflict in your marriage in the future. Therefore, it's best to be ready for your wife's decision regarding her Bitcoin.

I agree with your point of view on this. For an important day like a wedding day or a date, we should give meaningful gifts that are appropriate to the situation, and should not give unrelated things. In OP's case, if his wife knows and is passionate about bitcoin, he can gift bitcoin to her at any time. Giving her bitcoin on her wedding day might make her happy because she understands what it is, but what about the people around her? They don't know anything about bitcoin and came to congratulate the wedding, share the joy with the bride and groom, but they don't understand what's going on, which will make the party no longer interesting.

At the end of the day, it's all about money, bitcoin or gold or any gift is money, but we need to give gifts that suit the situation and context rather than just doing what we want.

Presents should, in fact, capture the spirit of the occasion. Indeed, a bitcoin enthusiast would find this to be a wonderful present on an ordinary day. But we must remember who our audience is. A wedding is about more than simply the couple—its about the guests celebrating with them. Giving bitcoin now? Thats a contemporary decision, but its important to make sure it doesnt dominate the main feelings of the event.

Whether its bitcoin, gold, or any other tangible gift, money is at the center of it all. The sentiment, the feeling behind the present, ought to be the main goal. Indeed, there is a place and a time for everything. Our judgments need to be made with consideration, not only based on trends or personal preferences.

OP told that his wife is aware of Bitcoin. However, Bitcoin as a gift, that is basically just money. That isnt very romantic, that is just another creative way to give money. Even though it is popular, but giving money as a present is simplest kind of a present. I would say that is might be similar that person did not bother much thinking what to give. Just like a last minute decision. For Bitcoin to be a present that will be remembered or understood, the person who receives it must be into deeply crypto, and people who surround that person must be also in crypto. Otherwise how would that person share the joy of a present. I bet it was a quest for his wife to explain her parents what exactly OP gave her as a present.

I agree with both of you, if we are talking about romance and to add some excitement to the wedding then bitcoin is an inappropriate gift. but anyway, this is OP and his wife's wedding, it's their decision and they feel happy with it. but if it were me, I wouldn't use bitcoins at a wedding or any other occasion, it's more like a boast or boast. if we want to teach our wife about bitcoin or give her bitcoin, we have plenty of time to do that.

I don't think I read anywhere that Bitcoin was used to pay for Op's wedding. All he said was that he gave his wife a bitcoin gift. after their wedding. We just don't know if he taught them how to convert Bitcoin to their fiat currency. Or it's also possible that he showed right away how Bitcoin is exchanged for the money they use, because Op's story is not detailed.

Then you are also right; that is also the OP's choice and may be one of his ways to express his true love to his wife. And I think that in other communities here, maybe we also allocate Bitcoin for our families or spouses, right?

OP used bitcoin to pay for his wedding? I don't think he did that because if you read his previous thread he said that bitcoin is illegal in their country. He invested in bitcoin in silence but then came up with the idea of getting bitcoin as a wedding gift on their wedding day, but following the this thread, he gave bitcoin after they got married.

His wife also knows about bitcoin and once they decide to invest in bitcoin together, it means he will definitely teach her everything about bitcoin. Also, it's not that we need to share some of our bitcoins with those closest to us, but we should find a way for them to have access to all of our bitcoins if something unexpected happens with us.

I wish to gift my wife a bitcoin gift but hasn't yet earned any. I plan to help her earn her own money from bitcoin in the future. We must emphasize the importance of understanding our wife before giving her more money. Look what happened to the price of Bitcoin now, it's an opportunity.

The value of Bitcoin will be better than that of gold jewelry.

You should also get married early like OP and gift your lovely wife bitcoins instead of gold jewellery.
As the demand and popularity of Bitcoin is increasing, people are interested in investing in Bitcoin over other assets in the future.
But it would be better to gift Bitcoin to your wife along with gold jewellery. Because both gold jewelery and Bitcoin will be good for your future. Both are top in terms of popularity.

You have raised a valid concern that the OP should be worried about. Sometimes we trust a person so much that we forget that every individual has their own secret that they can not share with anyone. However it is not advisable to share your personal life in an open forum in times of lots of hacking, exploits. You can be a victim of social engineering, and your online life can be in danger.

It's not necessarily the case that the old holder taught his wife about bitcoin, sometimes they didn't provide education or his wife didn't know about his work in crypto. My wife still doesn't understand how crypto works, she only knows the name bitcoin and how valuable bitcoin is to make ends meet. So education must be done as soon as possible so that the wife can become a holder who can be relied on.

Congratulations on your marriage and fulfilling your promise to give half of your bitcoin investment to your wife It is fantastic to hear that she not only familiar with Bitcoin but also want to learn more about it. It is not easy to explain complex topics like cryptocurrency so It is great that she grasp the concept so easily. It is also wonderful to hear that your wife plan to hold the bitcoin.

As for your question about gifting bitcoin to a wife many people different preferences when they come to gifts. some prefer gold jewelry others find the value It is essential to understand your partner interests and desires to ensure you give a good gift.

it is good to see how your wife appreciate both the bitcoin and the gold jewelry you gift her. It looks like you found a perfect balance between her interests and yours.

By the way I am not married yet. But again I wish you both live a happiest life.

Simple practice and not just theory will provide a better understanding and make it easier for them even though they are still beginners.
Knowledge about bitcoin does seem very difficult, but it depends on how they learn it. If you just theory, it won't have a good effect. Theory + practice will give better results.

actually for me since this is for long term investment ? indeed that needs theory and practice but a simple trust is enough to understand that even what happened
just holding bitcoin will bring us fortune in time.

Quote

Giving a bitcoin gift must also be accompanied by knowledge, don't ignore it because it is a valuable asset.

He is a Old time Holder as he already accumulate His funds so I believe that He had teach His Wife about what it is and how it goes and besides it is written in the OP that His wife had already understanding about bitcoin.

I promised in a post on this forum a few months ago. I had a plan to give half of my bitcoin investment to my wife after marriage.

A very good idea. But if it was me, I would rather teach her how to earn in bitcoin or make her buy bitcoin with her fiat earnings. She would value the bitcoin she earned herself or she bought with fiat more than just the one sent her by hubby. Since she is holding for a long time, she might at sometime forget she has bitcoin before she didn't earn it. Now, the fund will be at risk if she can't save the seed phrase very well. It would have been better she earned herself, then you also let her know about your investment incase of demise

Did you just see your wife and married her? I mean you decided to tell her about bitcoin only after marriage. I have taught my girlfriend much about bitcoin even when we aren't married.

Tbh, I still dont think it is a very good idea to give Bitcoin as a gift at wedding or other event that supposed to have romantic notes in it. The only acceptable scenario is when you both are deep into cryptocurrency. Otherwise it looks like a investment, than a present. Similar to case when on St. Valentines day you give her a ring, invite her to a restaurant with candles, and she gives you socks and shaving foam.

In our country, the type of gifts that can be received is something they will use to start their family, something they can use in the future, or if ever they necessarily need it. Normally, gifts such as money or life insurance were also being used as a gift. In my personal view, Bitcoin can be treated the same as I mentioned, providing an investment for your wife may not be romantic for you, but knowing that your partner has an investment plan for both of you, is also being romantic and being practical at the same time.

Anyway, such wedding gift or gift to a wife must be romantic, as it must give emotions. While money is just money (same as bitcoin). You give or get it, spend it and you forget about it. No positive memories are left after. Still dont understand how can investment be romantic. I can give my wife a brick, saying that this is a first step to our future house, and I am 10000% sure she would be totally disappointed with that. In my country, old people used to save money for their own funerals, and places on graveyards in advance. That is also a kind of investment, even though is sounds weird. Can you imagine receiving a present like that? As you say, it will be both practical and romantic.

In my country there are already several people who marry their partners using bitcoin dowry. Even though there are many pros and cons, this is good for introducing Bitcoin to the people around us.

I assume you live in Indonesia mate, I didn't know that there's already the type of marriage like that there. But who's not going to decline that type of ceremony when the partner has got Bitcoin. It's like the new flex for being financially free today and more of it when the person is holding a lot of it.

That bitcoin is better than gold or diamonds.

For us, it's true that Bitcoin is better than those assets. But if talking about which is better, we're biased because where into Bitcoin and this is a subjective thing. But regardless of that, they just need to accept the fact that this works better for us thus we say Bitcoin is better than those.
