Prashant Sharma and Niti Shree discussed their decision request bitcoin as a wedding gift with the media, with Mr. Sharma stating “We thought of merging technology with gifting for the future. We explained it our parents and they were very receptive.”
The wedding occurred on the 9th of December, less than a week after the Reserve Bank of India issued its most recent warning to prospective investors against the risks associated with cryptocurrencies. Of the almost 200 friends and family attending the wedding, only 15 chose to gift the couple with “traditional” items.
