Biscotti is a "friendly robot dog" funded by its own memecoin $BISCOTTI, which has raised $361,139 from the community, with a partnership with Boston Dynamics (planning to secure a Spot robot body).
The project is prototyping a v1 bobblehead and a lightweight animatronic jaw, and plans a USA tour: Brooklyn (Oct 25), Manhattan Halloween (Oct 31), a Long Island school visit (Nov 5), and JoyCon in San Francisco (Jan 16). Its stated mission is simply to make people smile — a community-funded, entertainment-first robotics experiment.
