The Bit Jar is a physical gag prop created by Draco and introduced on Gatorbox in early 2020. It is a large square container with a glass front panel that Draco throws physical "bits" (four-sided dice) into into whenever Bits are redeemed in the channel.

The Bit Jar is approximately one foot wide and tall and about one inch deep. It features a glass front panel and a rear foamcore panel painted yellow and demarcated with measurement lines adding up to $1-$3. The "bits" Draco throws into the jar are smoke gray colored four-sided dice that Draco bought in bulk for the prop. The jar is an imitation of the digital bit jars that were popular on Twitch for a period of time, though Draco noted that he waited too long to finish the prop and by the time he was done with it streaming culture had collectively moved on from bit jars. It is for this reason, plus the risk of stepping on the dice, why the prop was retired at the end of the 2021 season. It has been replaced with the original Bit Sign and the Bezos Blaster.

There have been a few times where Draco's interaction with the Bit Jar were more radical. Upon Tabitha Bunny's first redemption of 10,000 bits in the channel during Your Level Sucks Draco pulled the backing off of the Bit Jar and threw the entire contents of it into the air making a huge mess in the process. Draco later said it took at least two hours to find and pick up all of the bits and that he's not confident he ever actually got all of them back.
