Hello Everyone! I've had wearable block erupter pins available for a while and I originally did this with burned out erupters last year - now that difficulty is sky high and there is likely no real opportunity to make a mining return from them (unless BTC price hits above $1600USD within the near term [unlikely]), I have some block erupters that are just 'hanging out' not hashing at all. I attach an ornate safety pin to the back of block erupters and can wear them like a fashion piece. Would you please take 15 seconds to vote on them so I can have an idea if anyone here would even use them or not. I've yet to sell any since attending local meetups last year around November. (I only have two listed currently on my site, but can make about 70 of them if anyone were interested. One in Silver, yellow, and even Pink as well (I've also got a few Antminer U1s too but I sort of wanted to keep them for myself and they don't have the B logo so yeah, not as symbolically effective)) [I have this idea right now to get a small solar cell strip that tapes onto the edge of the top of the erupter and possibly feeding it into the power towards the LED on it so that they can occasionally blink - I just have no idea how to make it happen and to keep it cheaply priced {like 20 bucks still}]

Even in the event that an attacker gains more than 50% of the network's
computational power, only transactions sent by the attacker could be
reversed or double-spent. The network would not be destroyed.

Yeah they look cool! But maybe a little too big and heavy to use as a pin.

I've turned one of mine into a keychain so I totally dig your idea of a pin.
Kinda sad these things are worthless now. Use to enjoy watching them blink on my desk.

They actually aren't all to heavy on normal linens. Perhaps on something really thin like a gown or lace strap they may be a bit much, but they aren't heavy to fabric. My pin has held up well to my own use. I'm planning on giving a few things away for bitcoin black friday too if someone wants one but cannot buy them from me directly.

We, as early bitcoin users, should help to raise awareness of bitcoin, and this is one of the ways to do it. I would wear one to a bitcoin meetup, not going to work with it though.

You can use them to mine other sha256 coins that you can then sell for BTC. I'm sure that they would make more BTC that way than just straight BTC mining with it does. Other wsie it's a pretty cool idea and sue for something likely to go into the bin. I have little old BTC usb miners (not erupters) that could be used in the same fashion. Mine have a nice BTC logo on them.
