EOS Gift Card as Birthday Present

Introduction

Do you have a fellow co-worker, friend or family member, who is  interested in blockchain, but did not yet find the right motivation to  learn all the technical details of this new ecosystem? Here comes the  right tool for your!

EOS Gift Card

The DApp at eosgiftcard.com  allows you to create a new EOS account for a friend with just a few  clicks. This account can be customized via three different CPU/NET/RAM  configurations, choosing between a “Basic”, “Standard” or “Pro” tier.  First you choose a custom 12 letter EOS account name for your friend  (e.g. jimmyparker1) and select an account tier. Afterwards, you need to sign off the creation of this new account, using Scatter and your existing EOS account.

A new EOS  account of your chosen name will be created automatically and  instantly through a smart contract, CPU and NET resources will be  staked and RAM will be bought according to your chosen configuration.  Finally, the remaining EOS balance (difference between the price of your  chosen account tier and cost of creating an account) will be  transferred to your friends new EOS account as a beginning balance and  the app will generate a nicely formatted PDF document. This PDF  contains the account credentials, useful links to wallet applications  and a list of popular DApps, so that your friend is able to get started  using EOS without any further explanation. This document can be printed  and handed out to your friend as a personal gift.

The smallest gift card starts at a price of 2 EOS, so  you can gift this to anybody. Your friend now has a real motivation to  get into EOS and the blockchain space, as he is in possession of real  EOS tokens! But you don’t need to fear of loosing to much, in case of  him still not finding the right motivation, as the gift cards start at  only $7 (at the time of this writing). The smallest gift card contains  ~1.4 liquid EOS (depending on current RAM price), 3 KiB of RAM and 0.3  EOS of staked CPU/NET resources, which allows for basic usage of the  blockchain and getting into the EOS ecosystem, while keeping full  control of the account. Also, the account is future proof, as it can be  upgraded at any time by purchasing and staking additional EOS tokens.

Security

We deployed a strong Content-Security-Policy (CSP), which protects you from XSS attacks and makes sure that nobody can access the keys generated by this app, not even us! This is implemented by the connect-src directive, which enforces your local browser to only allow outgoing data to the EOS node at public.eosinfra.io (for sending the signed transaction) and your local Scatter wallet, as can be verified here: cspvalidator.org
In addition to this, the generated PDF will be downloaded via a secure https connection (TLS ecryption). Make sure to verify that you can see the small lock in the address bar of your browser!

Your perfect EOS present

Introduce somebody you love into the blockchain ecosystem,  by making him a personal gift. Only personal contacts and  recommendations will allow for mainstream adoption of the EOS  blockchain!
