Binmucker/by Conor Chepenik

A builder's home base on the internet.

Free tools, daily essays, Bitcoin projects, breathing exercises, a retro game, and a few experiments that defy category. If something is genuinely useful to me, I ship it so it can be useful to you too.

I write every day

A commitment to daily publishing on Medium, no matter the mood.

I ship small useful tools

Audits, calculators, games, breathing aids. Built for me first.

Bitcoin and Lightning, always

Sound money, self-custody, and invisible payments are the throughline.

Health, family, weird detours

Software is not the whole point. The rest of life shows up here too.

What the free audit looks like

53Average

Sample: Jax Coffee Roasters

Solid reputation and a real Google presence, but the website and AI signals are leaving customers on the table. Three focused fixes would move the needle fast.

Sound money and sovereignty

Bitcoin & Lightning

Tools and profiles for the Bitcoin-curious and the already-orange-pilled.

Writing & Ideas

Daily essays, longer posts, and the occasional argument with myself.

Not everything has to be productive

Play & Practice

A retro arcade, a Lightning racer, a breathing app, and a guitar coach. Reminders that software is not the whole point.

Value for value, transparent

Affiliate links for things I actually use. If you sign up through them, we both win.

The credit card, hardware wallet, hosting, and services I actually pay for and earn from now live in one place.

Behind the site

Who is the Binmucker?

I'm Conor Chepenik. A while back I committed to writing every day, forever, and that habit turned into a habit of building things in public. The tools, the books, the odd little apps, they all come out of that practice.

I care about Bitcoin, sovereignty, and software that respects your attention. I mostly build for myself first. If a thing is honestly useful to me, there is a decent chance it is useful to someone else too. That is what this site is. A place where the writing, the code, the experiments, and the detours all live together.

Value for value

If something here saved you time, taught you something, or made you laugh, you can send sats. Not required. I keep building either way. This is just how you participate in the healthy version of the internet if you want to.
