King of last-minute gifts
Forget noise-canceling headphones, festive scented candles and coffee machines. By the end of this post, you’ll be buying crypto for all your last-minute Christmas obligations. Here are five reasons why crypto is the best Christmas gift. Merry Cryptmas, everyone!
1. It’s trendy.
This year, crypto is no longer just for the nerds! Popularized by the folks behind other great tech and favored by millennials, Gen Zs and celebrities alike, cryptocurrency, NFTs, tokens and other equivalents are the talk of the town. From the metaverse to Web 3.0, the next generation of the internet, cryptocurrencies are at the forefront of exciting developments, including a censorship-free internet, next-gen digital collectibles, fully-immersive gaming and much more. As more lifestyle and pop culture crypto collaborations begin to hit the market, it would be pretty cool if you got someone into the space before the hype. So instead of getting generic chocolate or hand creams for your Christmas gift exchange this year, why not give some crypto? There is such a vast variety of gaming, metaverse, Layer 1, Web 3.0, DeFi cryptocurrencies and more on the Binance platform. With a plethora of cryptocurrencies to choose from, crypto isn’t just a trendy conversation starter, it’s becoming an essential part of everyday lives.
2. Out of stock? There’s no such thing!
Didn’t get the latest gaming consoles during the Black Friday sales? No thanks to the pandemic, supply chains have been struggling to keep up with online shopping demands, resulting in popular gift items selling out fast this Christmas. Good news for you! Unlike other hot items that have run out of stock, you don’t have to compete for crypto. Avoid disappointment, inconvenience and a mad rush for a replacement present by giving crypto this year. Unless you’re shooting for a limited edition NFT, you’ll never have to be worried about waiting for restocks to stuff those Christmas stockings!
3. Finding something within your budget will never be an issue.
The best thing about crypto is quite possibly the fact that there’s always something for someone. You can buy a dollar’s worth of BUSD as a gag gift, an entire BTC as a grand gesture of love for your significant other, as lasting as the digital gold itself, or any other amount of crypto that fits this year’s Christmas budget. Whether you’re looking for a casual Secret Santa gift or a thoughtful Christmas thank-you gift for your team, crypto will never break your bank.
4. Crypto is perfect for the last-minute you.
No time for gift shopping? No problem!
Hate queues? We’ve got you covered!
Need your long-distance gift to arrive instantly? Consider it done.
If you’re still looking for presents on Christmas day itself, then you’re definitely a present procrastinator. But no worries, crypto has got your back. No need for dashing through the snow to find your last-minute present this year—you can buy and send crypto to anyone all over the world on Christmas Day, and they’ll receive it in time for Boxing Day! Ah.. the beauty of a borderless payment system. Binance allows you to send crypto instantly anywhere to anyone you want, even if they’re non-Binance users, making last-minute gifting a breeze. What’s more, if you’re sending crypto via Binance Gift Cards, you can even select a festive gift card design and attach an optional note to your giftee for a more personal touch.
5. It’s super easy to give.

Instantly send a Christmas-themed crypto Binance Gift Card with your Binance app. You can send any cryptocurrency listed in the Funding Wallet, and check the gift card number to see if your recipient has already redeemed your crypto gift.
