Who Should You Give Prepaid Bitcoin™ Cards To?
For several years now, Bitcoiners around the world have resorted to paper wallets as a means to physically trade Bitcoin. In reality, what they are trading is access to the public and private keys associated with the address that the bitcoins are more recently associated with. Paper wallets need to be created on secure hardware using secure software otherwise their security comes into question. The largest issue with paper wallets is that they lack durability, especially those printed on thermal paper. If you were trying to give bitcoins in physical form to one of your friends, you would not want to give them a paper wallet. Paper wallets look a lot like receipts and often suffer the same discarded fate. Prepaid Bitcoin cards are a much better way to give designated amounts of money, in Bitcoin. Any situation where you would previously have used a Cassacius coin or a paper wallet in a physical exchange, you can instead use a Prepaid Bitcoin™ card. Of course, the one exception to this rule is cold storage. Prepaid Bitcoin™ cards were not designed for cold storage. PrepaidBitco.in’s Prepaid Bitcoin™ cards are not just an easy way for new Bitcoiners to buy bitcoins. They can also be used as physical gifts of Bitcoin to friends and relatives as they are more durable than a paper wallet and less expensive than a precious metal coin. Bitcoin needs to be spread across the world in every way shape and form; PrepaidBitco.in understands this mission and works to provide the best service in its niche.
