This is a great initiative; thank you for sharing your ~Design needs with us! It sounds a bit complex to me, firstly because you are suggesting different methods to the receiver.

What makes you think he (or she) will know how to choose, or what's the difference between, on-chain and lightning? Especially if a newbie, the receiver will probably be confused by all these steps and apps to download and use... I bet they will leave the sats in the card if they are not familiar with it. Good to onboard new Hodlers :)

Why not just have a pdf for each, one on-chain and one LN? Then you pick, depending on who the gift is for, to attach one handout or the other with the satscard?

BTW, it's lightning, not lightening lol, I knew this #1296088 would have turned out useful again.

I do not think the newbie will understand on-chain/lightning. I want them to follow outlined steps. How much should they know? I do not comprehend lightning 😉 although I use it often.

I want them to leave the sats on the card until they are ready to learn more, at which point they will start asking questions. Getting someone to load the card gets more private keys into the hands of men and women.

I did this wrong so many times and lost so many sats that I feel confident sharing with you something that has been working for me many times now, giving them Bitcoin + a card. Let the gift be simple. Let their curiosity drive the next steps. That's how you create savers, not confused users who abandon under confusion.

Would you be open to a two-part approach: (1) Gift introduction (my design) + (2) optional funding guide? So you can also choose to gift the cards empty (for them to fill) or filled for some of your special and dear ones.
