Thomas Hunt's first Bitcoin news program (April 2013)
MadBitcoins is the original Bitcoin news daily that Thomas Hunt launched in April 2013 — the show that predates and seeded The Bitcoin Group. The earliest archived episode is dated April 21, 2013 ("Butterfly Labs Actually Ships Something — Gigahash in the Wild"); the show has continued in various rhythms since.
MadBitcoins is also Hunt's personal handle (@MadBitcoins on Twitter/X) and the brand under which the broader World Crypto Network ecosystem developed. The MadBitcoins Episodes index (mad-bitcoins-episodes) cross-references each daily entry to its llm-wiki markdown record.
