Forget ugly sweaters and fruitcakes. This Christmas, it’s all about the Bitcoin bling and blockchain delights.
Whether your loved one is mining crypto under the mistletoe, flexing their non-fungible tokens like Christmas ornaments, or staking tokens while sipping eggnog, Cointelegraph’s 2024 holiday gift guide has the perfect presents to light up their holiday.
Here are 13 Web3 gifts to wrap up for crypto enthusiasts this holiday season.
1. A crypto phone is a gift that keeps on giving
Solana’s second-generation phone, “Seeker,” is packed with features like a crypto wallet, NFT marketplace and DApp integrations.
Seekers’ predecessor, Saga, famously yielded lucrative airdrops for its owners, and Solana Labs claims Seeker will likewise be a “rewards magnet.”
The downside of selecting Seeker for a Christmas gift is that it won’t physically be available this Christmas. Preorders for “early adopters” cost $500 and it’s set to ship out next year.

There’s an Ethereum option as well. Freedom Factory, the team behind the ethOS operating system, unveiled “dGen1” which can interact with decentralized apps and sign transactions on Ethereum.
Like Seeker, preorders are priced at $500 (in Ether) and the device is advertised to ship in 2025, though it’s not expected to have cellular telecommunications capabilities.
2. Let them know you were right
If you’re thinking of giving everyone in your family a small token of appreciation, skip the mug this Christmas and head on to Etsy to pick up some scented candles that say: “Smells like I was right about Bitcoin”.
Think back to all those dinner debates when your whole family ganged up on you, dismissing your Bitcoin passion while quoting legendary investor Warren Buffett’s “rat poison squared” criticism of Bitcoin.
Get one for everyone. (Ryan…..
