Her birthday was just a few days ago, and I was thinking in doing something different. She already knows that I am into cryptocurrency for a long while, and she was also exploring it recently. I was asking her if she would like some Ethereum as a gift for her birthday, and she never hesitated to say yes! However, she didn't expect the amount that I've sent her.

She was expecting way less, but I sent her $100 worth of Ethereum (+$6 in gas fees) and she was all smiles thanking me for it. For me, it's such a great feeling to give her something like that, as I love her very much.
It's good that you are exposing your little sister to blockchain and new technologies. But make sure you teach her the basics. Teach her how to keep her wallet secure. Tell her to always backup her wallet no matter how many coins she has in it. Even if its dust, tell her to create backups. Remember, those dusts might be worth thousands of dollars after few years. Make her aware of all probable frauds and scams Smiley. Tell her not to fall for those FUDs and FOMOs. Finally, hodl (is not everything and very toxic. Tell her to sell if she wants to sell).
