If I make a start up company for bitcoin gift cards, do you guys think there is enough interest for it?

I have a friend working on a nice design for the card, probably will include multiple designs to fit all customer's occasions (x-mas, birthday, daily gift, promo event, etc.), and I'm working on the technical part to make it require absolutely no trust between us (the company) and the buyers. It should be a nice way to give a gift to your family and friend, regardless if they're still getting into crypto, or already are working with it.

I do have some nice use cases that I can use for marketing later, but I'm a bit concerned about the start point.

Therefore, I'm asking you all guys, if there is such a thing (for BTC or whatever other crypto currency), would you guys be interested in buying/using it? and why?

Thanks in advance for you all.

I recently gifted some ether to my relatives in Christmas. I just printed a few paper wallets, transferred some ether and gave them. If you make a product with a nice design and more targeted to seasonal gifts I think you can succeed.

Now, be aware that security is a big issue here, so the process to produce these items must ensure that the private keys are not compromised at any moment. That can make the whole thing a bit more complex, but I encourage you to go ahead with the project!
