Xmas
-
I was asked by my Xmas celebrating family what I want.
Me: “You aren’t getting me anything for Xmas, right? Because I prefer it that way.”
Them: “We’re going to get you something. It’ll be small, don’t worry. We’re thinking maybe giftcards”
Me: “I’d rather you not, but if you’re gonna, can you just get cryptocurrency instead?”
Them: “What the heck is cryptocurrency??”
Me: (Explanation)
Them: “We’re getting you a nice set of warm pajamas instead.”True story.

Get the giftcards, sell for crypto. OR privateinternetaccess actually takes nearly ANY gift card as a form of payment for their VPN. Just sayin’.

I haven’t had pajamas as a kid as well. I thought about donating to each of my family members some crypto coins for xmas. I imagine all of them will be “what the heck is cryptocurrency” as well.
[/quote]Someone will likely take a picture of the card and post it on Reditt and they’ll get thousands of karma while a bunch of people make fun of you.At least, that’s what happened last year.

[/quote]Can you exchange it here directly or on other forums, or does one sell the gift card for cash and then use that for crypto? (Seems like a loss with the second way - because you have to sell the gift cards for less)

[/quote]Well, there was a site that would do it directly but I can’t find it anymore.So no, probably moving it on the Marketplace would be the only route to go these days since Bitmit is dead and Coinbase sucks.
