Awesome, the in-browser flash player works fine for now. Keep up the great work!

Rock on Chain Radio, let's keep this roll'n.   

Hey crackerhead!

Thanks for sending us a message, we are heavy Linux users on this end as well so we are investigating the issue with the M3U link and are working on offering more listen options over the next few days.

We hope to have all of these added soon!

Thanks for listening!

I'm having no luck playing the .m3u in Ubuntu, (I'm trying it via RythmBox). Is anyone listening on a Linux machine that could point me in the right direction?

EDIT: I found the flash player, so that seems to be fine for the time being.

Thanks ChainRadio!

I did my first show on Thursday and have been incredibly happy with the reception we've been getting. I loved seeing the listener count start to climb during my set and it's continued to do so. Everyone that's tuned in has my thanks for helping us get this going.

Just wanted to let everyone know that Chain Radio will begin announcing our winning numbers for our daily drawings and our twice weekly drawings on the air each weeknight during the Chain Radio News Recap starting on Monday at 6pm EDT.

Thanks to our friends at Chain Radio!

We will work on getting the daily news downloadable. Great suggestion!

Advertisements are sold on a case-by-case basis right now so just contact us [email protected]

Couple of thoughts at the moment.

1. Love that you implemented now playing and listener counts. Good to see that on the sidebar of the site.

2. Really enjoyed hearing that science show. Great addition. Fun and informative.

3. Can you make your daily news recap downloadable somewhere? Sometimes I am away from the ability to listen when you do it live and would love to be able to download the recap and listen to it later.

4. Can you get the advertisement rates live somewhere?

Chain Radio has been on the air for over 24 continuous hours and we wanted to take a look at some interesting facts...

We've had listeners from The United States, The United Kingdom, Germany, France, Italy, Sweden, Canada, Australia, and Egypt!

We've played just under 500 songs, aired several hours of interruption free music, kept our audience informed with the Chain Radio News Recap, updated the price of Bitcoin on air over 25 times, and seen great programming from You, Me and BTC, the SETI Institute, the Europop 20 and more.

Remember Chain Radio was created because we love cryptocurrency just as much as you do and we intend to keep kickin' ass.

If you have any comments, suggestions, thoughts, or complaints let us know!

Chain Radio, the Internet’s first fully licensed 24/7 streaming radio station for Bitcoin and cryptocurrency specialists, has announced that it will be launching on July 28th, 2014.

The station comes from a group of cryptocurrency and Internet radio enthusiasts and has been under development for several months obtaining licenses from U.S. ASCAP, BMI, SEASAC, SoundExchange and SOCAN. Chain Radio will include a wide range of programming from breaking bitcoin news and roundtable discussions to music selected by the listeners and original hosted radio shows. These shows will will be hosted by various personalities and bitcoin specialists, such as Adam B. Levine, Andreas Antonopoulos, and many more providing programing for those who love to stay informed on the ever changing face of cryptocurrency.

While other stations have been taken offline within the first month, Chain Radio has developed a long term plan to remain on the air delivering the most up to date and relevant news to their listeners. With a long term content and provider strategy the group hopes that it can be come a significant centerpiece of digital content for those involved in the cryptocurrency industry.

Chain Radio will begin broadcasting on July 28th, 2014 at 10am Eastern Daylight Time with an ‘All Music Hour’. A full schedule will soon be posted on the Chain Radio website at http://ChainRadio.com.

Thanks for the post! We hope to be sharing even more details VERY soon.

For those who have messaged asking what the current status is we wanted to provide a brief update.

We are currently finishing a few internal items that need to be taken care of. Scheduling being a large one and we still are looking for additional on-air talent.

We've secured all of the appropriate Internet radio licenses at this time, we've wrapped up some of the design work on our site and have begun quickly filling it up with content and we've been working on having a full series of professionally recorded bumpers and what not recorded and sent over to us.

Moar updates will be incoming soon!

We've published our piece about Chain Radio over here for anyone interested: http://coinfire.cf/2014/07/06/another-crypto-radio-station-crops/

The Intro
Chain Radio is the first 24/7 Internet radio station designed for cryptocurrency enthusiasts.

We’ve been working hard secretly for the past several months on building a 24/7, fully licensed Internet radio station that is built for cryptocurrency enthusiasts. We’ve got major plans for our radio station, we’ve received licenses from U.S. ASCAP, BMI, SESAC, SoundExchange, & SOCAN, we are finishing work on our streaming server, our request system and scheduling.

This station isn’t just lead by some fans of cryptocurrency, this station is led by experienced Internet radio managers, production teams and people who not only know Internet radio but are enthusiasts of Bitcoin, Litecoin, Dogecoin and other cryptocurrencies.

We’ve worked hard over the past several months to bring it all together.

Chain Radio features the music you want to hear, the shows you’ve asked for, the news and updates that keep you in the loop.

With live streaming 24/7 we’ve built a platform the cryptocurrency community by the cryptocurrency community.

Current Needs
Right now we are looking for On-Air talent. If you've got a bitchin' Internet connection, a large collection of MP3 music and the ability to learn Sam Broadcaster we would love to speak with you.

We are also looking for people producing quality Bitcoin or cryptocurrency related podcasts who would like to extend their audience via Chain Radio.
