The consumer market has proven time and time again that people love products that mimic other products directly. These BitSoaps were born from a fascination for the rising internet currency -- a type of cash in which the creators of these cleansers have a keen interest.
The familiar bitcoin symbol has been imprinted into each sudsy bar of soap, complete with the binary border of 0s and 1s. They cost exactly $4.42 US and offer the purchaser several weeks worth of squeaky clean skin. Handmade by a young couple in Southern California, the BitSoaps are currently available in four different fragrances. One is afforded the option of the gray Litecoin Castile, the pink Lavender Hemp, the green Lemongrass and Grapefruit Hemp Oil and golden plain Hemp Oil.
