Bumping the thread a bit to try and get more traction. I might have mentioned, I do have at least 1 other person I could likely convince to hop onto the chain, but I'd like to see where this gets first on its own. Be nice not to have anyone I know on the chain ha!
Bengy, you "only" need 23 more posts to bet yourself out of Newbie limbo =p I'm not encouraging spam, of course!

Pm on the way
Hi all, any more news with the little fella?
Just watching with interest to see how far and wide it can get

Hey Mbitr,
Sorry, I'm a complete Bitcointalk noob... I'm trying to send you a PM, but your account doesn't allow noobs to PM you!
Can you send me a PM, so we can sort out getting the Piggy to you?

Looking forward to hear some news as well
Did bengy already send it to the next recipient ? Is anyone in contact with him ?

Do we already have our next location ?
I believe Bengy will now get in touch with one of the others in eternal's earlier list. I am also trying to source (feel like there's a better word haha) another person in the UK to get along with this chain but no response yet. I have quite a few secondary options but probably want this to happen a bit more naturally first before I resort to getting people convinced =D
P.S. We were both surprised by the weight! For some reason thought it'd be heavier.
Already over 20€ yay
The mass produced versions will come out a little heavier and firmer. The prototype was glued together by hand, therefore, it's not as robust as the final model. So if anybody receives the piglet with a dent or some other flaw, don't worry
Please make sure to have anyone who participates share the story and a picture somewhere online. If someone doesn't feel comfortable to show themself on the picture, just shoot a picture like the first one in the original post.

And the Piglet hath moved along the trust chain. Strangely, we both thought hey, it's ok for our pics to go online. Very unusual, but there we go;)
So here we are, with Piglet, stickers and the piece of art (comic strip) I included. Maybe Bengy has better pics on his phone?
And in case you can't read the comic strip (I do realise it's macabre but hey artist impression, right?), the image itself is here:

How about after we finish the physical trust chain, we initiate a digital one? Maybe with some digital collectibles?
Why not run both in parallel? You could create a simple ERC721 token that can be passed from person to person.
Reach out to crypto-collectible games like cryptokitties and others to see if you can make the token have some special functionality in their games.
Every time the collectible gets passed around it should gain in value, then you can sell the ERC721 token to a final bidder, and release the gathered funds to charity for a double whammy donation.

The piglet is hollow, the only copy of the private key is inside the piglet. To reach it, you'd have to cut it open
Would love to see a digital version of this passed around Bitcointalk.
Have you ever thought about?
Seems like it could be passed around much more efficiently, particularly since a lot of people who actually use Bitcointalk don't know a huge number of bitcoin users IRL.
I would definitely be interested in participating.
The digital equivalent of this has been done already, with the lightning torch.
The whole shtick of this initiative is the physical aspect, of handing the DigiPiglet over to other people and trusting them.
Now, people can always just donate Bitcoin into the DigiPiglet without participating.
Here's the Piggy's Bitcoin address:

Thanks for adding that picture, I'm very glad to see everything made it there safely of course!
I hope we'll see some pictures of the exchange too
Maybe Bengy will post about it on Steemit as well.

Sorry this took so bloody long, but I'm rather inefficient with photos and things. I will update here also to show when I manage to print the drawing I will also include when sending to the next person (Bengy)!
Hopefully, we can get a few more interested parties to line up. Happy Friday everyone!
P.S. If it counts for anything. I like the workmanship and feel of this piglet. Matte finish, and looks squeaky as new, I will not test its robustness;) it is safely back in the box:)!
Update: Bengy responded (thanks eternal for helping sort that out!), and it turns out we're in the same city after all (fancy a Steemian and a Bitcointalker ending up there).
I'll leave the stickers, and add a small piece of artwork that will be done by a very young Bitcoiner (I have sadly neglected updating a post here where you can see her art). Just a little something to add on to the chain, without making the package (that much) heavier!
So the handover will be done tentatively Tuesday =)

That's a funny coincidence and really convenient
Love the idea with the artwork.
@buwaytress
That's really amazing! If possible, take a couple of pictures during the meetup, if you're comfortable showing your face online.
I know Bengy has already posted a couple of pictures of himself on Steemit, so that shouldn't be a problem.
I'll ask him to write a Steemit post about this as well Really great to hear that this is coming along nicely!!

Yaayyy
Can't wait to see the pics
Let's establish that we use tracking/insurance if we send it overseas. Domestic mail usually is fairly reliable, but we should not take the risk if we are sending it far away.
