What is Anonymous Bitcoin Club?

Anonymous Bitcoin Club (ABC) is a cypherpunk-driven collective focused on preserving the anonymity, freedom, and ethos of early Bitcoiners through art, education, and open-source experimentation. Our work blends Bitcoin-first tooling with visual storytelling, games, and on-chain artifacts that explore the cultural and philosophical layers of Bitcoin.

A core pillar of ABC is the importance of operational security (OPSEC). Our educational material emphasizes privacy-conscious practices, threat awareness, and mitigation of risks such as surveillance, social engineering, scams, and custodial dependencies. We aim to equip users with practical knowledge to interact with Bitcoin safely and responsibly.

Origins & Early History

The story of ABC begins with Anon #0 — a missing piece. Originally meant to be the first of many, it was never officially released. Some say it was lost forever; others believe it watches silently from the shadows, a symbol of the unknown.

The first public release was Anon #1, anchoring ABC in on-chain history. Its auction proceeds were donated fully to Ross Ulbricht’s Road to Freedom campaign — signaling ABC’s alignment with individual liberty, resistance to state violence, and unwavering cypherpunk values.

HAL Bot → HAL AI

ABC developed HAL Bot, a Swiss‑army‑knife Discord tool that served Bitcoin communities with privacy features, image compression, scam detection, and OPSEC safeguards.

It evolved into HAL AI — an interactive intelligence layer that extends the mission of Hal Finney, built to empower users with education, creativity, and tools for secure, sovereign digital life.

• Development of ₿URN, a Bitcoin‑themed FPS set inside the Federal Reserve, culminating in the symbolic destruction of the money printer.
• The Anonium 21 — a cinematic project exploring Bitcoin through speculative, historical, and cultural narratives.
