Topic: Friends Give Me BTC as Birthday give (Read 464 times)
Really you are blessed with to had a friend like this.Because some friends will not gift you,even when you gift him.They will not gift back to you.As compared to that,you was blessed.We had some friends,who look all with the money.They will calculate your gift into the money which you need to give him some money,even I had one friend like that.He is very bad on coming to the money.
It makes me happy when a person is happy, either in any way, with Bitcoin or with blessings for his family, and the fact that each of his friends have given him that birthday present is something that speaks highly of you. and that is something that should also be taken into account, the fact that your friends have chosen to give you BTC is because for them as for you it is very important, and here it does not matter that they are not 100usd, those 93usd if you leave them for a good time they will multiply you and believe me that is what will happen, have no doubt about it.
This is a lovely story. I'm happy the op was congratulated by friends and gave BTC as a present. I've received BTC as a gift for my birthday as well because Bitcoin is pretty used in my family, and it's common to gift money in it. As far as money gifts go, Bitcoin is a good choice. But sometimes what matters is not money but something else, something personal. Then there are also times when nothing matters because there are bigger things. Tomorrow's my birthday, but this year, I don't want presents at all; I just want my country to win the war as soon as possible (I'm from Ukraine).
It is one type of Success of Bitcoin that people are using it as different way. Bitcoin is made to provide online secure payments and if people are using BTC as a gifs which mean many people know about BTC and they use BTC. And they use bitcoin as a payment asset.
First of all happy birthday and congratulations to you. I am not as lucky as you who receive a Bitcoin gift from someone or have not thought about giving a Bitcoin gift to my friend. As a form of gratitude from those who you have taught for 15 days of course it is indeed worth getting. getting a gift in the form of Bitcoin will certainly be profitable if you can manage it well, little by little it will also be profitable over time. Moreover, this is a gift given sincerely by your friend, of course it must be stored and managed properly. even though the price is currently going down but it will still be profitable and just need to wait for the time until the price goes up again.
I wanted to extend my greetings too to OP and I would like him to know that he should be thankful for what his friend have had given to him as a birthday gift because to day receiving bitcoin as a gift is a treasure. I just do hope OP know how to handle this finance and knowledgeable enough about the crypto market. But so far, I do really wish I am as lucky as him, but this kind of instances is very rare so let's make our own wealth.
Seems like you have some good friends who know you well & got you what you probably desired most for a gift. Happy belated birthday by the way, I am late to the party 
Today was my birthday. I just came home 3 hours ago. It was really late at night, but a party was organised for me. By the way, thanks to my friends who gave me this special birthday. But I was most surprised when I saw they gave me a birthday card and asked me to open it. When I opened it, I saw an email and password were written. And the account was a Kucoin account. Then I logged in and I saw there was $93 worth of bitcoin. And when I asked them about it, they said "this is a gist from five people. Four give 20 each and one gives $15, but because of the price volatility, it becomes $93. Though I didn't ask about the amount, I asked them what they did. Because I have been helping them learn about bitcoin for the last 15 days, and they have already made their first investment with me. This feeling is really something special for me. Literally, this is something special. And this birthday will be really memorable for me. My life's first bitcoin gift was on my birthday.
Do you guys have any memories of something like this? If you want, you can share that, and if you also give them any surprise, please share that too, so that I can get a better idea of what to give them.

Kinda late but happy birthday!
The gift was a double surprise in my opinion.
First, you got to have a blessing by receiving additional fractions of Btc. And second, I guess they have learned and applied what you have taught about Bitcoin in the last 15 days.
However, the next thing you should teach them is to avoid storing Bitcoin in a centralised or custodial wallets, they could've used Electrum for the gift if you taught them anyway.
I remember reading before a thread or comment somewhere having a gift of trezor or hardware wallet with some altcoins in it. Maybe teaching more ways to store their bitcoin or altcoins can also help them if their into holding. BTW, Congrats and it’s nice to see group of friends who learn and study together how they will develop or lift themselves thru cryptocurrencies. Only few is able to find friends that will be on your same side when it comes in risking investments or in any money related topics.The gift was a double surprise in my opinion.

simply able to appreciate on what they have done.Of course giving off some hardware wallet would be still costly considering on the amount that they had given which is on an exchange platform
which isnt really a bad idea but it would be good if its stored on a non custodial wallet but since keys would be known by someone thats why they do ending up on giving
an exchange account instead.
Miss out birthday, however, we can't wish you Bitcoin but just wishes with merit (lol). Yea this is a memorable moment for you since the gift was in Bitcoin. And I feel happy to hear that you help them learn about Bitcoin. You are adopting Bitcoin and as a return, you got the gift in Bitcoin as well. Unluckily nothing happens like this. Most of my friends not familiar with Bitcoin could wish me. A lot of prevention here to learn and teach about Bitcoin. Anyway, best wishes to you.
That’s new! Now, people have started giving bitcoin as gifts, which shows how advanced we have become as a society. You should keep your gift in a cold storage wallet where it will impossible for hackers to hack and steal it.
being a gift maybe he should use bitcoin to buy something from the real world, because i think OP must have some bitcoin that he is doing Hodl and then the one he got as a gift he could use to spend in the real world for friends to see the importance of using bitcoin as a payment method in the real world as. many people focus only on holding and day trading but don't use bitcoin as a means of payment in the real world, we need to change that
you are lucky to have known bitcoin at your early age.
OP is still too young
People are complaining about his friends using a custodial wallet as kucoin for the gift. I do not see a problem with that. It was a gift and they used what they understood at that time for the gift. OP can decide to transfer the bitcoin to his non custodial wallet. It will not cost him much.
Congratulations to you, you are lucky to have known bitcoin at your early age.

Although it is late, congratulations to you for the gift and hopefully, you can use it for your own benefit and make a profit. I do not have an experience like you because almost half of my friends do not know bitcoin and do not want to learn bitcoin for now. But I have already given some satoshi to some friends as an introduction and hopefully, they are interested in knowing more about bitcoin.

Happy birthday Mate. Sounds like you had an awesome party.
So far I haven't received any crypto currencies for my birthday from friends or family. Within my family I am the only one who owns cryptos. My parents are too old to invest money in cryptos, they are already struggling to control their cell phones. My uncle and my cousin are both very interested in cryptos but don't have a lot of money to invest in. I am thinking about giving my cousin a wallet for his birthday this year with some Bitcoins and ETH coins. From my friends I have some who invested in cryptos but are just HODL investors and not a lot of money invested.

Thank you soo much everyone who wishes me here.
Congrats on the free bitcoin and happy birthday, that’s really awesome of your friends to do that for you! I’ve taught a lot of people about bitcoin over the years but I don’t think any of them have paid me any gifts back in bitcoin, though I’ve certainly gotten gifts in crypto collectibles from buddies before, just for having awesome friends
Happy birthday again. 21 is a big day, I spent mine drinking heavily and puking lol
I'm greeting you a belated happy birthday! May you have many more birthdays to come and Bitcoins to own!
I was surprised that you are teaching your friends to learn more about Bitcoin and yet your first Bitcoin came from them. That's a little funny story. But isn't it great to have friends like that? They're so thoughtful.
But having Bitcoin in an account created by someone else and whose password is also known by other people, it is best that you withdraw them to a wallet under your exclusive control. I think you also need to share this very important reminder to your friends.

Now what i want you to do as it is not that safe to keep funds in centralized exchange , why not transfer that funds in your decentralized wallet so you will keep your funds safe if willing to keep long term holding.
Again congrats for receiving Bitcoin as gift because I have never received something like that till now.
