We’re planning an exciting new benefit for Premium members. We can’t say exactly what it is, except that it involves T-shirts.

Before we commit to designs, we’d like to get your opinion: which of the T-shirts below would you actually wear?

We’ve put together a brief survey, where you can rate each T-shirt from 1 (would never wear) to 5 (would totally wear).

As thanks for filling out the survey, we’ll choose one respondent to win any of the T-shirts pictured here (your choice).

Your odds of winning are probably higher than you think. Plus, it will be fun.

Vintage Bitcoin 2008

This comfortable, fashionable T-shirt will show that you were in it from the early days. Celebrate the 2008 financial crisis and the incredible invention it inspired. The tri-blend fit is soft and cozy, with a unique vintage look. (Available in various colors.)

Oinker

Show that you’re a HODLer with this hand-drawn illustration of a bitcoin being tucked away in a lovable oinker. This 100% cotton T-shirt is comfortable and flattering, even if you’ve grown (just like your bitcoin savings account). Available in various colors.

Blocky McBlockchain

An adorable illustration of the lovable mascot who’s here to remind you that “blockchain is your friend.” Show that you’re a Blockchain Believer without all the technical jargon. This 100% cotton T-shirt is time-tested and Blocky McBlockchain-approved. (Note: Blocky will have a small chain for a tail.)

Bitcoin Classic Album

From the 1970s funk band Electron Aerodynamic comes this classic album cover predicting the birth of bitcoin, inspiring a young Satoshi Nakamoto, who listened to this album over 10,000 times while learning to code. This soft, comfortable, 100% cotton T-shirt will keep you grooving deep into the night as you sing that funk-fueled chorus: “Gonna spend my daddy’s bitcoin.”

Non-Fungible Human

Proclaim your non-fungibility as everyone else struggles to conform. This super-soft tri-blend T-shirt is fashionable enough to wear on dates, and comfortable enough to wear to bed. In an age of fungibility, remind the world that you’re one of a kind, baby! (Available in various colors.)

Four Horsemen

Proudly celebrate the Four Horsemen of the Cryptocalypse: Satoshi Nakamoto (bitcoin), Vitalik Buterin (Ethereum), Hayden Adams (Uniswap), and Changpeng Zhao (Binance). We also happen to think they are the greatest four investments in crypto. This soft, tri-blend T-shirt wears like a favorite shirt, and shares your favorite creators. (Available in assorted colors; Hayden Adams not included.)

OG Bitcoiner

Show off your OG status to all the crypto-come-latelys while you lean behind the keyboard of your customized AntMiner S19 Pro, tweaking its SHA-256 mining algorithm to your custom specs.
