Today’s conversation marks our first episode of 2026 and the return of British HODL, one of the most unapologetically bullish voices on Bitcoin.
British HODL is a former gold, equities, and real estate investor who went all in on Bitcoin in 2021.
Originally from London, he is focused on helping people understand Bitcoin as both a financial asset and a life altering operating system.
In this episode, we reflect on what went right and wrong in 2025, unpack the debasement trade and why Bitcoin lagged last year, and explore what actually matters in 2026.
We discuss the growing role of Wall Street and the U.S. government, BlackRock and Larry Fink, Jamie Dimon and JP Morgan’s changing posture, and what these shifts mean for Bitcoin long term.
British HODL also breaks down Microstrategy's evolving capital strategy, treasury companies, volatility as a tool rather than a risk, and why some Bitcoin treasury experiments failed while others are succeeding.
We close with personal reflections, early Bitcoin mistakes he wishes he avoided, and his clearest message yet for Bitcoiners in 2026.
Stick around to the end — this is one of British HODL’s most grounded and forward looking conversations to date.
