It is art and children love art. They draw things they know and know recently but they even don't know what it means technically. Children are hungry to discover new things and if they have fun with new things, they love it.
Children loves art and whether the story is real or fictional, the core message the OP is trying to pass is that whatever you do have a way of influencing or rubbing off on those around you. This is the case with the kid in the OP's story. Now, if this is happening with the kids, I can say that his mother will also feel the bitcoin effect. For the father to get the kid interested in bitcoin, he could start by telling the kid to recreate the bitcoin logo as well as other cryptocurrency logos. This would be a great way to spark a conversation about bitcoin.
The only way that kids will love what we teach them is through their passion and interest. Since kids love art, then parents should start relating bitcoin into art, and it’s logo alone is a perfect art. Im just glad that an early age, these kids have been taught already and are aware already that bitcoin exists, especially that they are not living in a city where modernization is mostly observed. This story proves to show that the environment does not matter, as long as there are parents who could influence their kids positively.

This is a great story and I am all for children learning or showing interest in Bitcoin. Good thing that his parents told him about bitcoin. Even if it's a logo, it's a small step towards the big picture. The future generation is going to take the bitcoin to the next level, and we are the one who is going to show them the road. Never to leave out any option in life, and presenting this as an option for their future will open up a new door for gaining success.

Putting that aside, I saw that you said Bitcoin is illegal in your country! You are from the same country as I am, so I know what's the situation here. There were 3 guys put to jail just because they owned cryptocurrency. And this will happen again if the government knows our secret. So what I want to say here is that, teaching kids about Bitcoin is all good but when you are from a country like this, it's better to tell them not to share this and keep it as a secret. Because that kid told you about the secret of his father hodling Bitcoin, and he is involved with it. Imagine that being said to a people connected to the law enforcement. This also violates our privacy as they are saying this out to other people. This could lead to a threat to his life too.
 For me, I will wait till it's legal around here or my kids old enough to understand that some secrets are meant to be kept as a secret.

That is a good thing to hear, because his father is proud of the business his doing being Bitcoin investment or trading, which He has to open up to his or her children about Bitcoin and Logo and I believe he has also let them know that Bitcoin is a digital assets as well, which you can recover quick with the logo in the means of other cryptocurrency market.

If a child knows about Bitcoin from childhood, it does't mean that he will become successful and live a happy life.

yup. by then it will be a million bucks a coin and the price of gold will prob be pegged to it. the only advantage the kid will have is to never know what a chargeback is.

I'm gonna bet $100 that this didn't really happen.

OMG It was so funny for me.
I laughed out loud at this post.
I bet 1000$ we won't know the truth for sure.
But in the very first sentence he wrote "I am sharing a real story." So it'll be true until someone proves otherwise.
If the story is fictional, for what? Is there really nothing else for a person to do?
It's strictly up to you believe in it or not.

Probably he doesn't fully understand what bitcoin is. In childhood knowledge is deposited in different ways. This kid could be a big investor in the future or forget about the word "bitcoin" the very next day
From my point of view, we should to teach a child about financial literacy from the beginning, and then bitcoin or something else.

It is possible that this story is fictional. If the author confirmed the said photo of the BTC-logo on the sand, drawn by children, then there would be no doubts. @Fuso.hp said that there was no mobile connection in that place, but he had a phone with him, if he could determine this. If I was in that place at that moment and wanted to tell this story, I would definitely take a photo to support what was said with evidence.

Even if this story is true, drawing the BTC-logo by children means nothing. They can switch to other games the very next day and doesn't mean that they will become bitcoin-enthusiasts when they grow up. As children, many played pilots or sea captains. How many of you have become them now?
Well even if there is a photo we couldn't know if the story is true or not, OP could easily draw the logo in the sand and take a pic for a fake proof so it is really hard to determine.
But I agree that if this is true then for those kids it's just an art or drawing and they just like the logo so much.

You don't mention the age of the child and we shouldn't brag about educating kids about bitcoin too early, which is not necessarily a good thing. There's been a lot of pointless advice about teaching bitcoin to a 3-year-old or kids just in 3rd grade. Therefore, I hope everyone has the right view and awareness in educating their children. Because what we educate children will affect their future later, education needs to be the right knowledge and age.

The effect of Bitcoin on children can be a topic of concern and interest for parents and educators alike. On one hand, the rise of cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin can introduce children to the world of digital finance and technology, promoting an understanding of concepts such as decentralized systems and blockchain technology. This exposure might foster curiosity, innovation, and an early interest in financial literacy. On the other hand, the volatility and speculative nature of cryptocurrencies can pose risks, especially if children are not adequately educated about the potential pitfalls, scams, and market fluctuations associated with investing in cryptocurrencies. Therefore, it is crucial for parents and educators to guide children in their understanding of Bitcoin, ensuring they approach it with caution, skepticism, and a solid understanding of financial principles.

Your story seems fictional to me, how is it possible to know about Bitcoin where there is no good mobile network? As Bitcoin is a digital currency and Bitcoin cannot be transacted without internet.Without there internet how do they know about Bitcoin.You don't need internet to take pictures on your phone. Don't have a phone or camera?  Because such events should have been captured in photos.However if it is true then I would say it is a good start for the children.  Children love to draw but they seem to draw because of it.  But you did not mention age, it would have been better if you mentioned age.

OP says they don't have good internet, he doesn't say they don't have internet where they live. With today's technology development, not everywhere in the world is equipped with 5G and 4G networks, but it is also rare that there is no internet. Even in the area where my grandparents live, they still have difficulty using electricity, but they can still use smartphones and social media, but it will have some limitations. But even if OP's story is true, I don't see anything related to children and bitcoin's impact on them. Just because the boy knows how to draw the bitcoin logo doesn't mean he knows about it.

In this case of the boy, I remembered one thing that the children will be developed in the same way as the parents raise their children from childhood. The boy's father may want to expose his son to Bitcoin from an early age.
I will not be against you introducing bitcoin to anyone including your own children, because it is your right and responsibility to those you introduce it to. But you also have to pay attention to their age because for young children whatever they see is just for fun and once they see another, more interesting picture they will also forget the previous one. It's how young children grow every day and there's no reason for them to be interested for long periods of time in something they know nothing about.

That's also how I teach my children to be interested in drawing and usually every day I give them a cartoon picture to redraw in a book and the next day when I give them another picture, it will also be illustrated again with the new picture I gave. That's the daily life of young children and there's nothing more interesting than playing for them, because the learning process will be in accordance with what is given by their parents or teachers.

So this story is about children and drawing, but not about children and Bitcoin. OP has paid attention to that logo, because he has been into Bitcoin and noticed a familiar symbol. I bet this kid does not know much about Bitcoin, but simply saw that logo at fathers device. Or only heard about it. When I was a kid, I used to draw and carve Z - Zorro signs. I dont remember clearly when I saw it, but I did not read a book about him, neither saw the movie. I only knew that it was kind of a hero that fights bad guys. Maybe I heard about that from a friend. But as a kid, these Zorro obsession will be changed with something else quickly, as trends and things of interest change quick at early age.

Same with that kids you saw, today they draw BTC sign, tomorrow they are all into football, and day after that game of hide and seek is the best game ever. I would not call it "effect of Bitcoin", I would call it "effect of visual memory".

I am sharing a real story. Last 31st I went to my cousin's wedding. The area where I want to host the wedding is like a village where I don't have good mobile network, so it won't be wrong to call such an area as a remote area. After eating and drinking, me and one of my cousins went out for a walk and saw three boys drawing something in the mud. I approached them with interest and watched them make the Bitcoin logo in the mud and compete to see who could make the logo more beautiful. So I asked about this logo and one boy said that his parents have this bitcoin and his father taught him to draw this logo and he taught his friends. I was very happy to hear this from the boy because in such a village where there is no good mobile network people are involved with Bitcoin. 

In this case of the boy, I remembered one thing that the children will be developed in the same way as the parents raise their children from childhood. The boy's father may want to expose his son to Bitcoin from an early age.
But the primary label can only teach children a little bit about bitcoin introduction and bitcoin inventor, bitcoin logo etc. But it is better not to give such educational profession to children at a young age.

That is an interesting story but as to the question of the effect that Bitcoin has on children, I would say the same effect as with regular money. I doubt many kids will be able to understand how Bitcoin works and even if they did, their parents would have to give them money. Unless they are old enough to work and earn their own money. Adolescents should learn about Bitcoin though. They need to be prepared for the future. Although they should be supervised so they do not accidently lose all their money.

What parents could do is buy Bitcoin on their children's behalf and leave them with a fortune. You would even enjoy much of the fortune yourself, while they are growing up and Bitcoin goes up and up. Win win.

Gradually people are getting to know about Bitcoin and the interest in Bitcoin is constantly increasing. The picture of those little children can be said to be a proof of that. Because those little kids might have heard their parents when they raised awareness about Bitcoin, otherwise those kids wouldn't have been able to spot the Bitcoin logo. Moreover, it is surprising when there is so much talk about Bitcoin in remote areas where there is no network. Over the next few years, better ideas about Bitcoin will develop and Bitcoin will expand further.

how old is that kid?
one thing that is impossible if children aged 6-10 can understand what bitcoin is, and parents deliberately introduce btc early,
I personally have children and they know I am involved in crypto but they are not the least bit interested in asking what is bitcoin and what is crypto, there is a lot of crypto that I show and none of them understand and are interested in drawing it

it's not that I don't believe you, try to attach a photo when the child is making the bitcoin picture, so that your story can be said to be 75% reliable.

Perhaps they did what is on their mind and the Bitcoin logo seems attractive to them. But for sure these kids never know what is this for, probably they just saw it on the internet or flashing on the television and it catches their attention. Education and some sort of introduction to Bitcoin is a good idea so these kids are also aware of the logo they've drawn but not necessarily they put weight on that. Just for at least someone is asking what is that logo, these kids can answer it and that is enough. And the more its spreads into their community, the possibility it gets more attention and interest.

Children become the version of their parents, if not the best, then probably the worst. But mostly whatever their parents teach them, they tend to become obedient about it. I guess that’s the reason why these kids have been interested in the bitcoin logo. Probably their parents have started teaching its logo and afterwards, once they’re mature enough, they will be taught on how to accumulate bitcoin at an early age.

The OP' might be telling the truth, because I have seen several children talking about bitcoin, I am always happy to see young children educating each other about crypto currency because the world is getting more advanced so its good for the young once (children) to learn new things.
If a child below 15 years is into bitcoin the child must be a very smart kid, there are many adults today that think bitcoin is a scam but it comes to my knowledge that if the children starts involving on bitcoin this will be a challenge to the adult so many people will start to invest on bitcoin.
