Rocoto the Alpaca and His Bitcoin Story
Animated Short + Creative Sheets | Edu + Fun | Kids - Teens - Families
This all started with a forgotten story from one of the first Bitcoin mascots, and a super fun meeting we had this year at Adopting Bitcoin in El Salvador. That's where I met a guy from Motiv Perú and his adorable plushie friend, Rocoto.
Based on the above, and considering there isn't enough Bitcoin-themed animated content for kids, we decided to create a short cartoon that ties together socks, sound money, and alpaca wool.
Watch, share with others, and enjoy!
FYI. The story comes with free printables as well (🖨️ see below).
And, please, let's welcome these cute, hairy animals back to the "Bitcoin Zoo"—home to hornets, bees, honey badgers, lions, rabbits... and indeed, alpacas too!

In this short animated tale, a fluffy animal named Rocoto shares his story—from the ancient lands of Peru to some fascinating facts about his breed and Bitcoin. He’ll tell you all about the cozy socks that were among the very first things you could ever buy with BTC, weaving together the warmth of alpaca wool with the magic of sound money.
