What is this place?

This website is a vast collection of links to bitcoin only resources (think websites, software, videos etc that are focused on bitcoin). Content is grouped into sections which you can quickly get back to by pressing the Main Menu button at the bottom of each page.

Who made this?

My name is (@6102bitcoin), I'm a pseudonymous bitcoin user and educator doing what I can to accelerate bitcoin understanding. I have done my best to ensure that this site only links to high quality resources, but in the words of Matt Odell - 'I'm merely a tool in your own quest for knowledge. My aim is to help you but I demand you do your own due diligence.'

How do I use this site?

1. I recommend that you bookmark the site and check back in regularly! There is a huge amount of content to explore, so take your time.

2. Read 'What is Bitcoin' - A simple 5-10 minute read which introduces you to bitcoin in a clear, accurate and non-technical way.

4. Get Exploring. Have a look around and reach out to me on twitter (@6102bitcoin) if you have any questions.

(This guide will be extended soon)

What's a good bitcoin setup?

See my Bitcoin Guide for my suggested setup.

Hardware

Full Node

Wallets

On-Chain

Custodial

[1] : Blue Wallet's Lightning is Custodial by Default but users can opt to connect their app to their own Lightning Node using LNDhub. The On-Chain functionality is non-custodial.

[2] : Wallet of Satoshi is fully custodial meaning you do not have your private keys, thus you are not guaranteed full control of your funds.

[3] : Tippin.me is fully custodial meaning you do not have your private keys, thus you are not guaranteed full control of your funds.

[4] : Opennode is fully custodial meaning you do not have your private keys, thus you are not guaranteed full control of your funds. You can (and should) set reoccurring withdrawals to send any bitcoin you receive to your own wallet.

[5] : Bottle.li is fully custodial meaning you do not have your private keys, thus you are not guaranteed full control of your funds

These requirements are a good way to filter out those companies who are actually committed to being bitcoin only vs. those jumping on the bandwagon.

It also serves a secondary purpose - to help educating those users who are not (yet) bitcoin only and begin to counteract the damage caused by previously supporting altcoins.

Note: This is a prerequisite for being evaluated for addition and meeting these requirements does not guarantee you will be added.

Why bitcoin only?

Max Hillebrand made a great video that explains why being bitcoin only makes sense.
