You could (and people do) send gift cards, or pre-paid debit cards. These have the added benefit of being accepted in stores, etc, whereas cryptocurrencies... not really?

Anything of value sent via snail mail gets seized. CC and bank accounts denominated in USD can't be used. There is a black market where people pay with physical USD and crypto.

That's why people send the gift cards electronically, and they sell them on Facebook or something similar.
