This page lists IRC channels for discussing Bitcoin-related topics. Please read: Bitcoin IRC Channel Guidelines before joining.
Prior to late May 2021, most of these channels were on the Freenode network. Due to an Ownership dispute over Freenode, several have moved to Libera.chat. The ones that remained on Freenode are no longer linked below, as the channel registration database there was deleted on June 14, 2021. Try them on Libera, or ask for help in #bitcoin on Libera.
