Celebrate the Lunar New Year

Chinese New Year is a long-standing historical and cultural tradition that is celebrated by millions of people around the world. There are many interesting customs during the Spring Festival. For example, you can’t say unlucky words, and you can’t clean the house because you will “sweep” away your wealth, and you can’t send bells (homonym for “send the end”) or pears (homonym for “send away”). , these are unfounded customs. With the festive holiday approaching, let’s keep in mind the following five tips to avoid some common “no taboos” when celebrating traditional festivals and praying for good health and wealth in the new year.

1. Be sure to send and receive red envelopes

Red envelopes are traditional Chinese New Year gifts. The history of sending and receiving red packets has a long history, which means good health and wealth in the new year. It is an important tradition to celebrate the Spring Festival in China, Vietnam, Singapore and other places. Of course, it is also one of the biggest highlights of the Spring Festival. During visits to relatives and friends and during the Spring Festival activities, you can give red packets to anyone, but usually the elderly and children. The company will also send red envelopes to employees to express blessings and condolences. Some areas attach great importance to this activity, and people will go to the local banknote issuing bank during the Spring Festival to exchange old banknotes for new ones and give them to others.

However, the pandemic is not over yet, and your red envelopes may need a little creativity. This year, many may not be able to celebrate the festive season with their families as usual. Still, you can take advantage of these festive limited-edition cryptocurrency red envelopes and wish them good fortune and good luck. Using digital red envelopes to send and receive New Year money is not only more convenient, but also a more hygienic and responsible way during the epidemic.

2. Enrich the way of sending red envelopes to make it more interesting

Red envelopes are also called Lucky Money, Lucky Money, or Lucky Tou. No matter what they are called, in traditional culture, they refer to red envelopes stuffed with cash, which are given to friends and family members, wishing them a lot of money and good luck in the new year. In order to enrich the experience of sending red envelopes, you can put different amounts of cash in the lucky red envelopes and let the recipients choose by themselves. Remember that it must be an even number, everyone believes that good things come in pairs. Also avoid the number “4” because in Mandarin, “4” sounds a lot like “die.” Everyone likes the thrill of drawing red envelopes, and also likes to show off their good luck. If using digital red packets this year, you can also choose to send out your own digital red packets in blind boxes, which may contain ultra-rare non-fungible tokens (NFTs).

3. Don’t ask someone to lend money, and don’t lend money to others

The Spring Festival is usually associated with fortune. Debt is an unlucky symbol, and it is believed that starting the new year with debt will bring bad fortune throughout the year. Therefore, people usually pay off all their debts before the Chinese New Year to avoid being short of money. Likewise, borrowing money is a sign of bad luck and may mean financial losses. Before the Spring Festival, please pay off all debts, be budget conscious, and plan ahead to achieve wealth appreciation.

4. Use your lucky money wisely

After receiving all the red packets, you may feel like you have a small windfall in 2022. Parents, if you’re keeping the lucky money for your kids, consider setting up a savings account with a high-interest rate and allowing your savings to increase year by year as they get older. You can even use the money to earn passive income, allowing your funds to grow faster. If you receive more lucky money, the accumulated lucky money over the years can finally be used as a university fund!

5. Wear festive clothes for good luck

What festive colors are there? In Chinese feng shui, colors bring health, strength and good luck. In traditional culture, wearing red, gold, and bright yellow during the Spring Festival symbolizes auspicious stars, just like the Binance logo. Festive colors can be worn at any time of the year, and wearing them during festivals is especially good for luck and fortune.
