Oddbean new post about login | logout I hold the keys. They get it when they turn 18 and understand Bitcoin and self custody
Yeah, that's probably a wise set of conditions! I didn't want to put too many conditions on a present. If they want to sell it or lose it somehow then they'll learn an important lesson.
I stack for my teenage son and give hin $20 worth of bitcoin on the cash app every month. He sells it right away to buy cheap jewlery or whatever. It's tough to watch, but it's part of the learning process.
Better to learn it young! I know when I was younger I never listened to advice and had to learn things the hard way!
