I just saw this thread holy cow I did the same. I gifted my current girlfriend a bitcoin in her newly created non-custodial wallet. Atleast she have an idea now why I keep checking the prices on my trackers. As of now she's not that super interested but she are willing to learn. I believe that sooner or later before she realizes, she will earn money from the bitcoin I gifted to her and hopefully she will be interested to the point that she will talk to me initiatively about bitcoin and cryptocurrency. I just don't talk to her about my experiencr on crypto but she knows that I'm involved in some cryptocurrency transaction.

Thanks for all the overwhelming response for the incident that has been shared

Till date I haven't met her personally after sending the small amount of bitcoin. When I meet her what all things I need to brief her. It would be helpful if I get some precise points that can make a new one understand it in the short time of discussion.

When a person first learns about cryptocurrencies, he is more interested in investing in bitcoins in particular. OP It's really interesting since you said you gifted Bitcoin to your friend on his birthday. If this is the first time your friend has started trading in Bitcoin, then he must be happy to receive a Bitcoin gift from you. But since your friend has created a Binance account for the purpose of trading, you need to help him a lot. Of course he will demand special advice from you so he will be more than happy if you help him by giving him all the information about Bitcoin. and your friend can cross this journey beautifully so that he can learn about it. Warn your friend not to encounter fraud while investing and advise him to start trading later.

Already she had Binance, so requested her to send the bitcoin address and send a small amount of 0.0011BTC as birthday gift.

I know it is not good to send gifts to the centralized exchanges. During the conversation she said she is interested to learn about trading and for that purpose she had downloaded Binance. While meeting her in person I will brief her better about the security and need for non custodial wallet.
Of course it's good that you are going to explain her the problems related to keep funds on exchanges but what worries me the most is this part: "she is interested to learn about trading", I mean, for real? On average 85% of the traders lose their money, is she so confident she's going to to be in that 15%? I don't know, isn't it better to explain her how bitcoin works and just buy a little every month instead of trading?

I know it is not good to send gifts to the centralized exchanges.

The fact is that there are many entry points for people starting their crypto journey like your girlfriend choosing to learn to trade. In this case, recommending her a good exchange wouldn't be a bad thing.

To teach someone crypto according to their preferences, you have to forget yourself as an idealist.

Gifting someone Bitcoin however small is the best that you can give a person on her birthday now that she has Bitcoin you have to talk to her personally and guide her on how to use a custodial wallet the risk in trading and using a centralized exchange to store Bitcoin.

Its the responsibility of the giver to guide the receiver on the proper management, history, and potential of Bitcoin, you cannot do this in one session so its better to gift her an e-book about Cryptocurrency, urge her to read the whitepaper and, its better if you can compile the best videos of Bitcoin on Youtube for her to watch.

Well, in as much as I don't want to make you feel bad, I still maintain  that gifting bitcoin to a newbie isn't a better idea as there could have been more valuable  gifts she would have appreciated  over having bitcoin  now.
I also don't know how close you guys might be, but I think you would have taken time to educate her and give her a private tutorship rather than gifting her bitcoin as there are already alot of risks associated with it due to it's high volatility.

Well just as I said that I don't know the relationship  between you guys, but I don't understand  Spanish or what language  you guys communicated in but judging from the lot of love and happy emojis, I think it wouldn't be a bad idea to shot your shot except you're  married or already committed else go shot your shot man, I'm behind you😁🤣

It was a meaningful gift, and I'm sure she was delighted you did it with her. Recently I also saw a topic about giving bitcoins on the wedding day, but honestly, bitcoin will be a very meaningful gift if the recipient knows what it is and its value. But it doesn't make any sense if you give bitcoins to someone they don't know what it is.
Many people will object when you and her use Binance, but in this situation, I don't think there will be any other choice as she is relatively new and maybe Binance account is the only wallet she owns. Of course, you should tell her about the pros and cons of holding bitcoins on a centralized exchange, but with that amount of bitcoins, it would be really unwise to tell her about withdrawing bitcoins to the non-custodial wallet.
Such stories are seen regularly now. these have become commonplace now. so these things don't seem too surprising now. so op's story doesn't surprise us now. but these stories are admirable because they are commonplace now, but not commonly seen. However, a non-custodial wallet should be used for both transaction and holding of Bitcoins as the Bitcoins are completely under self control and safe. Therefore, before giving someone a gift or encouraging them to invest, they should first be informed about the use of the wallet.

Long back while having conversation with one of my girlfriend she said she was interested into cryptocurrency. Quite often she used to watch more details on Instagram posts and doesn't have proper knowledge to get into it. Days passed and today it is her birthday. I remembered the conversation and wished her. Already she had Binance, so requested her to send the bitcoin address and send a small amount of 0.0011BTC as birthday gift.
You have done well by gifting her the bitcoin, am always interested in females trying to learn about bitcoin, since she those not really have much knowledge about bitcoin and trading yet, then it’s better you just give her your time so that you will teach her about trading, and bitcoin investment incase later if she is interested in investing in bitcoin.

I noticed something about your post, you shouldn’t have added the amount which you gifted her, and the picture which you uploaded, you should have blurred the part which the amount of bitcoin you sent to her is showing, you don’t have to show the amount sent to you before people will believe you.

It's nice to have a girlfriend or a wife who is also into Bitcoin because it can make your relationship twice better. But I think this isn't really surprising knowing that cryptos' popularity are now very high. We only get shocked one day that our partner will confess to us that they are now into Bitcoin but sometimes they will get encouraged to us when they see us daily dealing with Bitcoin.

I see that it was your girlfriend's birthday last time, so I'm also wishing her a belated happy birthday. The gift you send may not be that huge but for sure he is happy and appreciates it a lot because it came from a special person. Besides, the amount can still grow if he HODL it a little longer.

The right things always happen at the right moment. You having the thought and she already being prepared shows how much there is synchronicity in the relationship.
For the fact you didn't get to spend so much on a luxurious gift, i respect that.
Am curious to know what she did with the coins you gifted her however, and am wondering if you already introduced her to a community forum as this, where she gets to participate and learn more in addition to what you would teach her.

Women who appreciate such kinda gifts from their spouses, contribute enormously to a happy and prosperous home. Unless she is the type that seems like she would swindle you of your funds, be smart. Not your keys, not your coins!

Hope it didn't cost much more than you anticipated knowing how Bitcoin price is almost at 29k and climbing?

Seriously though, this is a lovely gift that anyone who is interested in bitcoin or cryptocurrencies in general will adore getting from their significant other.Sincerely speaking, this is unique, and I would want to imitate it.

I know it is not good to send gifts to the centralized exchanges. During the conversation she said she is interested to learn about trading and for that purpose she had downloaded Binance. While meeting her in person I will brief her better about the security and need for non custodial wallet.

So far, she wants to learn trading, and she was the one that recommended Binance to herself, not bad there, but always try to remind her that exchanges are not reliable despite the reputation they may have gave. for better and stronger security purposes about her bitcoin, let her get a non-custodial wallet, as you said, so that if she has money later to invest more in bitcoin she will think of leaving her Bitcoin in any exchange because if she got familiar with uses  of exchange It will be hard for her moving her coins away from exchanges.

You are absolutely right mate. For her to have recommended binance to you, it means she has gotten more knowledge on bitcoin herself and this would make things much easier for you to teach her.
Like I earlier emphasized, her coin safety is very paramount because it has to do with funds and assets. So therefore, you must be up to the task of putting her through the entire system so she could get acquainted to how it works irrespective of the fact that she has done a little research on it. That should be a plus to her knowledge be she wiu learn and relearn some processes involved for her safety.

They only know Bitcoin from information from various social media but do not fully understand how to use it. This limitation makes some people unable to develop knowledge because there is no one beside them who can teach directly about Bitcoin. I think it's really lucky someone who has a girlfriend who can teach him how to save and invest safely.
The first prize in the form of Bitcoin will further encourage him to be more consistent in learning more about investing, besides that more people will become familiar with Bitcoin due to people directing how to use Bitcoin safely.
Initial information from social media is enough to lead them to learn about bitcoin and engagement matters directly depending on how they try to learn it. Actually there is nothing difficult because there are many videos about investing in social media, it's just that it takes a little seriousness in learning so that it leads them to real knowledge, unless they don't want to study seriously.

Let's hope for more positivity and hopefully the gifts given can encourage him to be more consistent in investing in bitcoin. Regarding how to use bitcoin properly, I'm sure on the way they will learn by themselves and the directions will probably help them to perfection in the learning process.

Bravo, I imagine how proud you'd be. I know that 0.0011BTC as birthday gift may be something you can afford to lose but how about the recipient? How would she feel if she loses it on the exchange? When you talk to her about security do ensure that you set up a software wallet for her. One your mind would be at rest. She would too be happy.

Nice and that's a gesture that you like her to get into trading as well. With that amount, she can learn a lot but don't expect that it'll grow too quickly for her.
Just advice her that she just enjoy what she's about to learn with that amount and don't be too greedy and if she's able to make profit from that, take profit no matter how much it is gonna be.

I am still very surprised op giving Bitcoin gift to one of his girlfriends which is absolutely amazing to know that he has plenty women in his arsenal. Congratulations to both of you and i hope she is not going to sell the coin when she has emergency. You need to lecture her on how profitable she can be if she keep the coin and focus on buying more Bitcoin for the future.
Since we are going to see a great move in price of Bitcoin by next year, it is very important for us to hold and buy more so we can make more profits from the market when Bitcoin has a big increase in price.

So what else would she do with the Bitcoin on her Binance account if not sell it? Well, sorry to say, if she was interested in crypto just as you have said, then she would really be more interested in holding that Bitcoin in a self-costodial wallet, and you probably would have even guided her to download one of the good mobile wallets app and send it there, because I think you must be aware of the issues with the SEC and Binance lately and the case of Bitcoin and the government at present. Really advising some crypto newbies to trust a CEX is not what I consider to be wise advice, and by the way, even if she is not going to sell the Bitcoin, why waste the fee to send it to Binance when you could have just asked her to create a self-costodial wallet and send it there? Then she can hold it.
