I have been thinking...
Would it be totally crazy, if I gave 10-15 bitcoins to a woman, who helped me in a really really big way when I was younger.

I mean, would she think I was crazy if I do it?
Would it be a positive thing? Or just weird?

The coins were not worth much when I got them, so from that perspective, it's not THAT big a deal, right?

I would gladly give them to her, but I fear it could have a negative effect to what little friendship we have

And she is married with kids, so while I will always like her, there is no hidden agenda on my part here.    



10-15 Bitcoin was a big amount of money, I mean if she helped you when you were just young I think it's just nice to give back to her.

If that's really what you feel and the amount of money doesn't matter to you, you should give it to her, I mean if she's a true friend it will never have a negative effect when it comes to friendship.

Maybe a big gift is enough, don't go for bitcoin or some kind of money because I just think it's not a good thing maybe if she really needed the money or something, anyway anything as a gift she's surely gonna appreciates it, but still, the decision was yours.

Considering the price of bitcoin right now, giving 10-15 bitcoins as a gift would definitely be crazy. Even though you managed to hold plenty of bitcoin while its value is still very low, it wouldn't be a wise decision to give some of it to someone. Also, you need to remember that the usage of bitcoin is still not relevant on many stuffs like buying things that can only be bought through fiat. Maybe it would be best if you would just start thinking about other gifts where your gratitude towards her can still be shown and it can be as expensive as you want since you mentioned, you managed to hold some of bitcoin at its lowest.

There is a time now when someone gives a gift of bitcoin to someone and if someone gets a gift, they can be very happy. I think a lot of people think that the price of bitcoin has skyrocketed because everyone likes bitcoin now and I think  It's a great way to gift a bitcoin to one another and everyone can be happier with a bitcoin gift.

It seems like you have a pure intention to give back from the favor or help that she have given you to show that much gratitude towards her. Just make it sure first that she will make it a point to use the Bitcoins and if she do really know how to manage and use those. 1 Bitcoin is already a big deal how about 10-15 which is surely a big one. But still, it depends upon you since you are the owner of those Bitcoins. Just make sure you still have plenty with you and be aware if she could make use of those because if not, then it will be just nonsense to gift it into someone who cannot barely use or manage it wisely.

I dont know if this becomes beneficial to the receiver if they do not have any knowledge of the bitcoin but if they discover the use of this coin this is a life change but is 10-15 bitcoin is overrated I guess if you think it talks about life it's priceless than your offer, not all the bitcoin we need to pay them really high just only being there when they needed.

.... Those coins could just disappear and no one ever benefits from it. You first have to make sure the person receiving fully understands it.

Its better that OP teach them first whats all about the bitcoin but i guess its struggle for them to understand if they are already old enough so there's a chance they will decline or recommend as fiat currency.

The problem with gifting bitcoin is not everyone understands it and not everyone sees the value. Those coins could just disappear and no one ever benefits from it. You first have to make sure the person receiving fully understands it.

You are a very kind friend. I don’t think it is weird to give back to someone that helped you a lot in times you are so down. She may feel a little weird because that’s a very large amount but if you will insist that that is your gift to all the things that she did to you, maybe she can understand and accept that. Do not think what other people will think about it, as long as you and she understand your true friendship.

It is okay to give bitcoin to her but she would appreciate it if you gave her material thinks, car a gadget or something that she can touch. I thibk she would appreciate that rather than bitcoin. 10 bitcoin is too much but it also depends on you at the end of the day she would thank you a lot if you gave her a friendly present.

Depends on  how she understands this system,  if she got the idea about it

For sure she'll enjoy the gift, that numbers of bitcoin  in its value  now is really  nice

As a gift, though  if she don't have any knowledge  about  it then it might not  appreciated.

If you want to look  luxurious  buying her a car or  something  precious  that worth the same

With your bitcoin  will surely  appreciated.

This is really a great decision. I think she will be very glad to get those bitcoin. In the present price of Bitcoin, 13/14 bitcoin price is so much. She can lead her life easily by those bitcoin.
Your thinking is also right that this could effect her married life, because her husband can thinking negativity. For this i will give you a idea that when you give her those bitcoin you must be give her in front of her family members and tell everything why you give her that. I think all the member of her family will be happy and will pray for you.

It depends if you will teach him how to convert it into USDT if you will give him an as is bitcoin because most of the average person here are not knowledgeable about cryptocurrency. Isn't it awkward if you will still approach someone who already have a family and you said that you like her but it is not  bad to help someone that helped you when you're down.

Giving her bitcoin in return can be a good start for her to become knowledgeable about the existence of bitcoin in our environment.

There is no friendship between mand and woman.
Even under this axiom, giving such an amount of money to a woman, married or not, is inevitably change the balance of your "friendship".
Bad idea.
Don't.

It is true, that friendship does not have to always be associated with any material, especially with money, friendship is more focused on mutual understanding and does not need to be asked for but can understand everything that is expected as a friend.

That is a big amount, there is no one who will not want to take it although she doesn't know how bitcoin work.

So, this has happened right? I mean you have gave the bitcoin you had to her for a long time ago?

What happen to her now? He will be a rich man because she has 15 bitcoin. She can buy anything she want even a lamborghini.

She may think that you are in love with her. I just thought about it after reading your post. Maybe her husband thinks so too.

Forgiveness! Ignoring my previous comment if you make the gift in bitcoin it is because you own more bitcoin and you feel a deep gratitude for that woman you mention. Goodwill actions do not have a price, only God is in charge of giving us the riches and places us at the right time to share them.

Giving of 10-15 bitcoin is a big amount of money today but the thing is that if she is the one who helped you since you we're a little or a kid then probably it would be great if you will give also something that is worth it in which it may paid the things that she helped you since you were young. As like what you have been said, as long as you doesn't have any bad motive or agenda and you just want to express your thankfulness in helping you when you are just a kid then it would be good.

I mean why not, but 10-15 BTC is quite an amount actually.
If you live in my country, you're almost like giving millions to someone.
Maybe you could tone that amount a bit, but again it still depends on you because in reality I would not give that high of an amount.

There is still a part that you still helped yourself that she was able to help you when you were young, so still consider rewarding yourself. I wonder how big that help was though, OP.

10-15 bitcoins really? it will unbelievable gift at this moment you know based on bitcoin price it's expensive gift who get it. Surely he/his is such a close person to you that you are thinking of giving him such a big reward. your money so if you think someone deserve such gift from you so why not.
The amount of bitcoin in this gift is equal to or even more than half a million dollars, and honestly, unless they are my family members and understand the meaning of this gift, otherwise, I or even a lot of people here do not have the generosity to make such decisions, our money cannot be printed every day, giving a gift to someone who is only slightly intimate with such an amount, which is obviously silly. Personally, I think the creator of this theme was just trying to exaggerate and show a very fake generosity

10 - 15 BTC is definitely a big amount and it would definitely impact her life in someway. We cannot say if the impact would be good or bad.
10 - 15 BTC might not be a big deal for you but just imagine what if this amount created a bad impact in her life. Would you feel good knowing the fact that your gift ruined your favourite person's life ?
If you want to gift that person something then you shouldn't gift her money but instead do something for her that she will remember for lifetime.
Like send a paid vacation for their whole family or pay her children's school fees or find out if she is having some kind of problems in her life and try to solve them or something similar.
