Try training your kid or your wife to spend some BTC using an app. It always start with something like this and once they know they can spend just using an app, they start learning how Bitcoin or ETHER works. Sooner they will eventually ask why it has value and how to en-cash BTC going to their bank account. Maybe one day you can entrust to them you privatekeys
Thanks, this is solid advice. I often talk to my wife about crypto but never in a hands on way. Perhaps I can get her started with a simple phone app like you said, send her some modest amounts, and teach her how to protect her own keys. Maybe an ultimate goal is being able to hand her a wiped Lesger nano and see if she can restore and then interact with BTC and a handful of alts!
I like the side effect of getting crypto more directly onto her radar as well as a mantra of adoption starts at home

These bonus benefits are great. Thanks again!
