CRYPTO HOLIDAY GIFT GUIDE 🎁

Got a hard-to-buy for degen in your life?

A frumpy uncle you’re looking to orange pill?

…or maybe you’re just looking for a bunch of gift ideas you can forward to a loved one?

Say no more. This list covers it all. 👇 

1/ Hivemapper Dashcam (get paid to map streets as you drive) $589

The Hivemapper Dashcam is a ‘crypto mullet’ product – plain old dash cam in the front, token generating device in the back!

4/ The Degen1 (the world’s most cracked out Ethereum wallet) ~$500 on pre-order

Kinda like the Ledger Stax, but if the team restricted its use to the Ethereum ecosystem…and did mushrooms before hitting the design studio. 

This thing has a 4-inch touch screen, fingerprint scanner, decentralized app store, custom graphical operating system, gaming functionality, social apps, 1 Physical + 1 E-sim, 256G harddrive – hell, it even has a laser pointer.

Basically, it’s trying to become the most fun $ETH wallet out there.

5/ Burner (half crypto wallet, half gift card) currently $9

Picture a translucent floppy disk…add an NFC chip to it…and give it as many color options as the original iMac desktop computers. That’s kind of how we see the Burner.

You tap the card to your phone, in order to add funds to the card (no app needed) – then, when you want to spend that crypto, you just tap the card to your phone again to verify the transaction.

This way, you can load it with funds and send it to a loved one as a gift card for them to spend.

6/ Milk Road PRO subscription (learn how to build wealth with crypto) $25 p/m or $250 per year

Milk Road PRO = everything you need to make the most of this bull run! 👇
