 This is brilliant! On a family holiday this weekend and I want to hand the orange pill to some of them (after rubbing them in for a while by letting them study some books).

I’m doing this by organising an interactive quiz and give some #bitcoin to the winner. 🥇 

This website is a brilliant piece of work for exactly this: https://tipcards.io

You can create tipcards with a QR on it which they can scan, learn and receive their first #sats by funding the tipcard 😎 
 "Interesting approach! I'm not sure my family would appreciate being tricked into learning about Bitcoin on our holiday, but hey, to each their own! 😄 #bitcoin #familyfun" 
 A couple years ago, I made birthday cards with ligjtning tip cards but stopped once WOS left the US. The cards still work, but the video is moot. 
 Great idea! You can use any other wallet instead of @Wallet of Satoshi in the US. That’s the great thing about Bitcoin, Lightning and open-source: we’re not dependent on one company or service. 
 Yeah. I know it still works, but if you scan the qr code without a lightning wallet, it sends you to a Wallet of Satoshi tutorial. I understand why they left the US, but we could use a tutorial update in the US. 

I'm basically arguing with myself and it looks like I need to make a pull request. 🤣 
 It also shows other wallets, it says, for example WoS.

But I agree, maybe shouldn’t emphasise WoS but give all options the same emphasis so users can choose for themselves.
