Bad news first: **zero working pirate mirrors anywhere** (checked EN/RU/ID/ZH/ES — course resists piracy by design, live Zoom + Discord-gated recordings tied to payment ID). Stop wasting time hunting. Good news: **~80% of TBHM’s $800 content has been free conference talks since 2015** , actual slide decks are public, $25 substitute Discord exists with money-back, alumni pay $100/cohort after the first.

The paid course explicitly recommends these as the foundation everyone should do FIRST.

The base is free.** He says it himself. > **🧰 Bonus loot — tools, wordlists, writeup feeds you need anyway** > > Even with the slides + videos, you need the actual stack to hunt. Here’s the kit most TBHM alumni run with: > > **The ProjectDiscovery free tool stack** (replaces 80% of what Haddix’s older slides reference): > > - [`subfinder`](https://github.com/projectdiscovery/subfinder) — modern Sublist3r replacement > - [`httpx`](https://github.com/projectdiscovery/httpx) — fast HTTP toolkit > - [`nuclei`](https://github.com/projectdiscovery/nuclei) — template-driven vuln scanner (10K+ community templates) > - [`katana`](https://github.com/projectdiscovery/katana) — modern crawler > - [`naabu`](https://github.com/projectdiscovery/naabu) — port scanner > - [`chaos`](https://chaos.projectdiscovery.io/) — public subdomain database, free API > - Master list of their stuff → [https://github.com/projectdiscovery](https://github.com/projectdiscovery) > > **Wordlists (the bread and butter):** > > - [**jhaddix’s all.txt**](https://gist.github.com/jhaddix/86a06c5dc309d08580a018c66354a056) — THE definitive subdomain wordlist (his own, free, referenced in every TBHM slide) > - [**SecLists**](https://github.com/danielmiessler/SecLists) by Daniel Miessler — the wordlist collection for everything > - [**PayloadsAllTheThings**](https://github.com/swisskyrepo/PayloadsAllTheThings) — payload library for every vuln type > - [**Trickest resolvers**](https://github.com/trickest/resolvers) — fresh DNS resolver lists (essential for amass) > > **Proxies (the workshop):** > > - [**Burp Suite Community**](https://portswigger.net/burp/communitydownload) — free, what everyone starts on > - [**Caido**](https://caido.io/) — modern Burp alternative, free tier, many TBHM alumni prefer this now > > **Writeup feeds (read these daily):** > > - [**HackerOne Hacktivity**](https://hackerone.com/hacktivity) — free public bug reports for studying > - [**InfoSec Writeups**](https://infosecwriteups.com/) — Medium publication, free > - [**pentester.land writeup index**](https://pentester.land/list-of-bug-bounty-writeups.html) — curated feed of writeups by vuln type > - [**Daily Swig**](https://portswigger.net/daily-swig) — security news, free > **🗺️ The honest 6-step roadmap (free → $15 → optional $25)** > > This is the order. Don’t skip steps. Most “TBHM is too expensive” complainers haven’t finished step 1. > > 1. **PortSwigger Academy** — finish the Apprentice + Practitioner labs. Holistic foundation. Free. Haddix tells you this himself. > 2. **NahamSec’s Udemy intro** — buy on a sale day for ~$15. Fills the _“how does bug bounty actually work”_ gap. > 3. **TBHM v4 Recon** — slides + NahamCon 2020 video side-by-side. Slides for reference, video for spoken context. Both free. > 4. **TBHM Application Analysis v1** — same drill with NahamCon 2022 video + slides. > 5. **Join the free Discords** — `discord.gg/jhaddix` public + `ctbb.show/discord` public. Lurk for a week, learn the current language and tooling. > 6. **If you want the elite community piece** — try CTBB’s $25 Critical Thinkers tier first (refundable month 1). If after 30 days you specifically want it from Haddix, watch for Arcanum’s private-Discord subscription to open. > > **The first 4 steps cost ~$15 and take 60-80 hours done properly.** That’s the actual “TBHM-level” path. The paid Live cohort is the cherry, not the cake. > **💬 The cheaper Discord substitute — $25/mo with money-back guarantee** > > The paid TBHM Discord gets you masterclasses + recon data + private hunts. But there’s a better-value substitute most posters miss. > > **Critical Thinking Podcast — “Critical Thinkers” tier — $25/month.** > > Run by Justin Gardner ([@rhynorater](https://x.com/Rhynorater)), Joseph Thacker ([@rez0\_\_](https://x.com/rez0__)), Brandyn Murtagh ([@gr3pme](https://x.com/gr3pme)). Haddix is a recurring guest on the pod (Episode 12, Episode 63). > > **What $25 actually gets you:** > > - Recordings of masterclasses by top hackers > - Private hack-alongs (live) > - Private n-days > - Private scripts, automations, plugins > - Direct line to the hosts > - Discounts + extended trials on hacking software (Caido, Burp extensions) > - Exclusive guides/blueprints (including the full-time bug bounty blueprint) > > **Justin’s public refund offer** (this is the killer feature): > > > _“If for some reason you’re not satisfied with the CTBB Critical Thinkers tier subscription after your first month ($25), DM me, and I’ll send you $25 back and publicly thank you.”_ > > → [https://www.criticalthinkingpodcast.io/how-to-go-full-time-bug-bounty/](https://www.criticalthinkingpodcast.io/how-to-go-full-time-bug-bounty/) > > 🔗 **Free public Discord (join now):** [https://ctbb.show/discord](https://ctbb.show/discord) — $25 tier opt-in is inside > > Most paid Discords don’t refund. This is the actual no-risk test-drive. > **🎓 Arcanum's own legit cheap loops — alumni rate, Discord sub, giveaways** > > If you want it from Haddix specifically and don’t want $800, three legit paths exist: > > **1. The alumni $100 loop** (the most important one): > > Verified from a Cohort 3 review at [bulwarkblack.com](http://bulwarkblack.com): > > > _“An added benefit after taking the class the first time, you get to attend all future classes for $100 dollars.”_ > > Math: $800 once + $100 × 4 future cohorts = **$1,200 over 2-3 years vs $4,000 flat.** Email `info@arcanum-sec.com` to confirm current alumni terms before relying on it. > > **2. discord.gg/jhaddix subscription** (separate product from the course): > > The public Discord is **free to join, no payment needed** → [https://discord.gg/jhaddix](https://discord.gg/jhaddix) > > The PRIVATE channels (monthly hunt target, recon data, exclusive videos, _“EPIC recon techniques”_ per Haddix’s own LinkedIn posts) are a SEPARATE paid subscription Haddix runs. Described publicly as _“really cheap”_ — substantially under the course price. Worth joining the public side just to see when subscription opens. > > **3. Cohort giveaways** (the free seat lottery): > > Arcanum runs _“Repost, like, and reply for a chance at a free seat”_ before every cohort launch. Multiple verified winners per cohort.

They’re the **actual frameworks/tools/labs from the paid courses, published free**. > **⚠️ What you ACTUALLY lose by going free + my own 2026 setup notes** > > **Be honest with yourself — paying for live TBHM buys you 3 things free won’t:** > > 1. **Live Q&A in the cohort Zoom** — ask Haddix something mid-lesson, get answer cited against current bounty programs. Not replicable from videos. > 2. **This-month’s-cohort bounty target recon** — Jason + Roll4Combat + Golden + crew pre-recon a fresh real-world bounty target, drop the results in the private Discord. **Hours fresh, not years.** > 3. **The multi-year alumni network** — people who’ve been hunting 5+ years in the private channels, answering specific questions about your real targets. > > **If you’re hunting a specific bounty THIS WEEK** → those matter. Pay or use the cheap Arcanum loops above. > **If you’re building methodology from baseline** → they don’t. Free path is fine. > > * * * > > **My own 2026 setup notes** (because the v4 slides ARE 2020, you gotta substitute): > > I read the v4 Recon deck cold last month while running through a HackerOne target. Haddix’s 2020 recon chain (`Sublist3r → amass → EyeWitness`) still works in 2026 if you swap: > > | 2020 (in slides) | 2026 (what to actually run) | > | --- | --- | > | `Sublist3r` | `subfinder` (ProjectDiscovery, way faster, actively maintained) | > | `amass intel -asn N` | Still works as-is — keep | > | `EyeWitness` | `httpx` + `nuclei` + `chaos` (full ProjectDiscovery stack) | > | Manual crawl | Add `katana` (crawling) + `gau` (historical URLs) + `waybackurls` (archived endpoints) | > | Burp Community | Caido (modern alternative, free tier, faster for some workflows) | > > > 💡 **Bob Ross moment:** If subdomain enum returns weirdly low counts on a target, that’s just resolver throttling — point `amass` at a different resolver list ([trickest/resolvers](https://github.com/trickest/resolvers) → grab `resolvers.txt`) and retry. Don’t blame the methodology, blame the resolver. > > **The lesson:** the method ages well. The tools age out. v4 from 2020 is still teaching the right thinking; you just substitute the tooling layer. * * * **Simple-pimple:** the $800 wall is mostly hot air. Haddix has been giving this talk free at conferences since 2015. Slides are public. Substitute Discord = $25 with refund. Alumni pay $100/cohort after the first. Free seats given away every cohort launch. **The “loot” you came hunting was sitting on a gitbook the whole time. Now go hack something.** 🪤
