Guides from the desk

Four write-ups on the mechanics of paying for Claude with cryptocurrency, written from the side of the transaction that actually executes the swap. They are about how the money moves and what it costs, because that is the part people get wrong and the part most resellers are vague about.

What these cover

The full route from picking a plan to redeeming the link. Paying specifically in Bitcoin, and why the confirmation time matters more than the price. A breakdown of what a plan costs here against Anthropic's own figure, with all four components named. And a comparison of what it costs to actually send funds on each chain, which is the number most people ignore and the one most likely to cost them more than our margin does.

What they deliberately do not cover

Whether Claude is better than anything else, and which plan suits your work. We sell the subscription, which makes us the wrong people to ask, and a reseller writing a product comparison is writing marketing. The vendor's own documentation is better on that and we would rather point you at it.

If something here is wrong

Tell us. Fees, minimums and confirmation times all move, and a guide that was accurate in August can be misleading by November. These pages carry the date they were last changed in the sitemap, and we would rather correct one than leave it drifting.
