Beverly Hills — August 20th, 2025 — Kartoon Studios, Inc. (NYSE: TOON) (“Kartoon Studios” or the “The Company”) today announces the launch of “Bitcoin Brigade: Adventures in Satoshi City” a groundbreaking new property that is far more than an animated series. This revolutionary project is the centerpiece of a fully-integrated business model spanning content, digital education, merchandise, interactive apps, and a pioneering Bitcoin treasury strategy — designed to position Kartoon Studios as a trailblazer at the intersection of kids’ entertainment and blockchain innovation. The series is scheduled to debut in fall 2026 on Kartoon Channel!
As a company dedicated to producing responsible, inspiring content for global youth, Kartoon Studios is proud to stand at the cutting edge of innovation—leading the way by integrating blockchain technology and Bitcoin education into compelling entertainment that equips the next generation with critical knowledge about finance, freedom, and technology.
“Bitcoin Brigade invites audiences into Satoshi City, a dazzling, digital realm where a diverse group of brave, brilliant kids discover a secret portal—the Bitcoin Bridge—that connects their world to this decentralized metropolis,” stated Andy Heyward, Chairman & CEO of Kartoon Studios. “The series combines exciting action and educational themes in an anime-style with vibrant visuals, a music-driven immersive experience, enhanced by K-POP original music.”
Heyward added: “I have produced and designed animated shows for Sonic the Hedgehog and Super Mario Brothers, both for Sega and Nintendo. These successes were instrumental in the launch of Nintendo and Sega’s game platforms. We believe ‘Bitcoin Brigade’ will have an equally revolutionary impact on the next level of entertainment, education, and gaming powered by blockchain technology.”
Kartoon Studios is proud to be working with BITKERN, the prominent Bitcoin mining company headquartered in Vienna Austria with mining facilities around the world. Working closely with its Co-Founder, Patrick Stitch, Bitkern will help guide the series and the global launch strategy.
Bitcoin is more than just a technology—it’s a movement that’s redefining how we think about money, ownership, and innovation. By collaborating with Kartoon Studios on Bitcoin Brigade, we’re creating an exciting way for kids to learn these ideas early and carry them into the future,” The following are some of the ways to get in touch with each other Stitch.

Imagine Bitcoin like a treasure-filled kingdom. Each episode is like a thrilling quest where the heroes explore new lands — from glittering mining mountains to secret vault cities — solving puzzles, cracking codes, and outsmarting digital bandits along the way. Like in video games, you can collect rare items (digital scarcity), find special power-ups which become more difficult to locate over time (halving), or use a backpack to store your loot (wallet security). Every adventure will level up their skills and teach them how to protect and grow their treasure — all while rocking out to K-Pop-fueled action.
Kartoon Studios has built a complete, Bitcoin native business platform. Satoshi Sparks Rewards System Sparks are earned by watching the episodes, taking quizzes or solving cryptographic puzzles in accompanying apps. Sparks can be used as digital currency to purchase exclusive products, bonus content and educational collectibles in an online marketplace that accepts only Bitcoin.
