considering time-locking 0.1 BTC for my son, to be accessible to him on his 21st birthday

- why not 🤷

one concern is ā€œtime-lockingā€ is a bit of a misnomer in that it locks the #bitcoin until it reaches a certain block height, and not a specific date/day in time

unless I’m mistaken šŸ¤”šŸ’­

You're not mistaken

Bitcoin is time.

If your son was born today

Add

812,672 + 1,104,516.

Lock it to block height 1,917,188

He can spend it at or around his 21st birthday.

thanks for showing your work! šŸ˜…

he’s 3.5 so I’ll adjust the block height accordingly

Yes - I’ve actually used the tool linked in this post

unfortunately it’s a good approximation tool, but not definitive

thank you for pointing me in their direction!
