NTF's and cryptocurrency has been the hottest topic across the internet for the past few months, and now Teletubbies has just announced it will be launching the TubbyCoin – a new virtual currency that employs cutting-edge cryptographology to convey the value of Big Hugs! developed at WildBrain Labs.

"The result of years of research at WildBrain Labs, HugTech is a unique, proprietary technology that harnesses the value of the Teletubbies’ trademark BigHugs! through a nascent technology that marries the secret power of the Teletubbies’ antennae with cutting-edge cryptographology," explained the lab.

To celebrate the launch, WildBrain will be donating $5,000 CAD to Kids Help Phone, and for every TubbyCoin shared or linked on social media, they will be adding one dollar to its donation up to a total of $10,000 CAD.

Of course, the TubbyCoin isn't actually a real cryptocurrency – it was created as an April Fool's joke – the donations are all very real. The TubbyCoins have been created to share with friends, family and "anyone who needs a hug," and the donations will ensure kids have the assistance they need in these difficult times.

Take a look at the Teletubbies TubbyCoin post below, and share it with your friends and family today.
