There are many reasons why grandma won't appreciate cryptocurrency... But, either way, have you given currency as a gift at Christmas? I've certainly been on the receiving end, and it seemed a bit inconsiderate, ya know?

It's like giving someone money, but it's usefulness as a currency drastically varies depending on the person. Seems like something you should only give to someone who is already interested in crypro. To answer the question, no.
