It can be different in some way like some use a bank and a fiat money instead of bitcoins. That's because they are not aware of btc. Some heard of it already but they are unsure of its future. In short they have more trust in fiat and banking. Oh well that is their decision and we are out of it already. I think what's important for now is that they care for the future of their child more than themselves. That is still commendable.

For us who are here in cryptos, we know the potential of btc so we use this as a medium instead. In your case, 6 years of stacking could go a long way. Not only you can have more coins during that time but the value of btc can now over be $300k or more. That will be awesome.

The one and only! Spoke to him for work shortly after 2017 ATH and didn't imagine he'd go on to be the guy he did (a lot of non Bitcoin things, as it turned out) probably only got the opportunity because I was in the country he came from. It did pay off for them it seemed, even before this new ATH -- and I will agree his kids won't lose much from regular school (but Dutch education is in many ways better than what I got and I think they will miss out on some social things).

I suppose it wasn't so much extreme to me (and not to them, since Didi was brought up the same way) but just the choices you make for your family perhaps restricts options for them. Not everyone everywhere would have the same access or means like them, or would prefer it.

Fairplay to them, I think theirs is a great story and long may it be so.


It's nothing strange, young people lose their things so easily that it's incomprehensible to me, and here I'm primarily thinking of mobile phones and wallets - although private keys should be something that's not so easy to lose if stored in a safe place. I hope you didn't pay dearly for that experiment, but at least now you know that your BTC are still the safest in your possession.

I didn't. It was the only way to truly see if they could take that responsibility that comes with Bitcoin, so it was worth the lesson learnt. The only time the kid's come close to self initiative in taking more interest was when NFTs came along... so I guess I'm the holder for a long time to come...

But now drop to 16,600 already

This may be a good idea, but for this, this doesn't mean to be a guarantee 100%, there is no always guarantee for investment, always has some risks. But, as long as we are investing in Bitcoin, this is worthier than altcoins. Hopefully, Bitcoin will last longer forever so that our children are able to enjoy the results.

Me, I am also doing so, making some investments in Bitcoin for my children since they were babies. But, I am not doing the investment in the very long-term period. I am just doing the investment in Bitcoin until the next bullish, taking profits, saving the money, using them to buy Bitcoin again in the bearish era, and holding them again to head the Bullish era. And so on.

Yes, this strategy will help some people to build a solid foundation for their families, if they can embrace the risk in this bearish season now and invest in Bitcoin for their future children. I will definitely apply this strategy to my long term investments so that my children will feel the love I have for them is not fake but real by investing in Bitcoin for their future purpose.


The long term holding can be 8 or 15 years, and by then the price of Bitcoin will be $400,000 or $500,000 which will allow you to have a good plan for your children academy, business and marriage so that they will become responsible people in the community. And your children will never forget this life investment you have for them, and they will definitely value Bitcoin in the rest of their lives.

In my opinion, the best thing you can do for your son is to save part of the crypto for them in a separate wallet. Once your son is a little older, try introducing blockchain and crypto to him. And when you make sure that he has become sufficiently proficient, he can enable him with the keys for that wallet or send the savings to him.
I think investing knowledge in the minds of our children is much better than just bequeathing money. It would be meaningless for our children to inherit private keys without knowing how to use them .

Yes bitcoin already dropped below 16,600, is anything bad in that? If you are even planning to invest in bitcoin, I think this is the right time, Bitcoin is very cheap now, if you are planning to invest for your kid, then I think if you do that now it's really a good idea because bitcoin is down now and in the next few months now we might not see bitcoin at the current price again, so don't keep on waiting and thinking that bitcoin is still going to dump more, if you are waiting for more dip, then you are not really ready to invest.

It is a very interesting theme.

I already had a deep dive into this theme: "how to make your coin survive yourself in order to secure your intergenerational wealth".
On the more practical side, I would suggest you two threads of mine:

Gifting satoshis to future generations
Securing Your Seed Phrase with Washers

Like something that they would acquire in the future? that would be wise but be sure to transfer you assets to your child once they already have awareness and once they are ready for it because there would be a tendency that they would ignore it, if they still don't.
Those are good threads, I have read it as well before. Well for sure people in this industry are having the same thought of passing this technology across generation due to its potential. Some are even having plans of "ladderized" plan for younger ones. 'coz if you would share it in an instant and at the wrong age they might not pay attention to it so efforts could not go to aaste.

Bitcoin holding short term or long term?I Think it totally depends on you and how much you want to profit from your holding investment. But bitcoin is long term investment coin.My experienced,many people’s are interested to invest bitcoin for long term and many people are benefited by it.
