My wife received some bitcoin from me, instead of a ring, when we got married in May- its now worth 18x as much :)
My Bitcoin Wedding
So I just got married to my longtime girlfriend in Iceland. She @RakelMusicbox and I @MdotStrange make up the smallest animated feature film studio in the world as we work together on my films. The wedding only cost $60 because we just did the little civil ceremony.
We both do our best to be socially conscious people so when the minister asked us to present the rings I said “We don’t have any rings, I just gave her bitcoin” because that’s what I did.
Children die because of diamonds. There is no such thing as a “Blood Bitcoin", so why would anyone want a diamond to represent their relationship?! Bitcoin represents positive change for the world and will actually increase in value unlike diamonds.
So if you're planning on getting married forego the rings and exchange bitcoin instead. It’s better for the world and we need some new traditions for this new world we’re building everyday. AND if you end up getting divorced no one knows how much bitcoin you have so they can’t take half unless you want to give it to them.
