I am thinking whether I should spread Monero in real life.

I want to make cute Monero banknotes that you could redeem on the blockchain.
Is there a way other than giving the 25 world seed to give someone full access to the wallet? I would want it to be a QR code. One might suggest I make a QR code linking to a website with the 25 word seed but is there an immediate way? I could not find out

The idea is to make a cute banknote and hide the 25 word seed (or ideally a QR code) under a nice holographic sticker in a safe pocket beneath it so that glue would not damage the QR/seed and they could type it in and enjoy crypto. The sticker also would prevent light from piercing through it and revealing the seed and I would also put in a few fake ones so that even if they managed - they would not be able to make out what is written. In order to prevent used notes from further circulation I would use something like gorilla glue to glue the sticker to the note, and I would use two stickers from both sides so that the person needs to heavily damage the note before redeeming to prevent fraud.

I would put declarative value like 0.1, 0.25, 0.5 XMR and I would also use my stamp for the sticker to mark it as note of my production, and I would use a precise pen to scribble over the sticker and paper boundary so that if somebody managed to take out contents without damaging the note somehow - they would not be able to glue the sticker back correctly.

I saw this design and found it very cute, but I cannot find the source
I will imitate the design and add some things, like how to redeem on the back, what to look for in a used note to tell apart unused from used, and some QR code for tutorials how to set up Monero

And also for convenience I could also make that sticker/seed part of the note be easily available to tear off so that people who would want to keep the note without destroying it whole would easily be able to do so

Giving people seeds would be the easiest because they do not have to have Monero software before getting it and they can take their monero out any time
And making notes is even better because other people who would get it from me, would be glad to mark up the price, and keep passing them around in their personal chains of contacts leading to even more spread

Now I'm gonna research what size these notes should be :biggrin:
I'll order prints because my printer is bad, and stickers too
