I’ve been using Lightsats on the Lightning Network. If the receiver doesn’t redeem the sats within a pre-determined time, the gifted sats will automatically return to the person creating the gift.

That's a really good idea, the idea for me is to gift it for kids especially and when they're old enough they find they have some BTC put aside

I'm always a little worried when I gift on chain btc. What if the recipient doesn't take it seriously and loses the keys? Also if it's too small, it could be dust if fees go up a lot (the mempool will never clear...)
Ecash is a great idea, if you lose it, at least the sats aren't burned. (Haters will say this is my implicit admitted ssion that ecash is custodial, but it's not.)

CashU. Not bitcoin per-se, but it is ecash (bearer instrument) using LN to / from BTC
