Most people don’t fail Bitcoin because they sell too early. They fail because they never had conviction in the first place.

British Hodl explains why last year was the real stress test separating tourists from true holders, why sentiment is always darkest before adoption accelerates, and why becoming a whole coiner is more psychological than financial.

This is a conversation about volatility, belief, holding through noise, and why Bitcoin forces you to think in decades not months.

🎙️ EPISODE SUMMARY

British Hodl joins Anja to break down what drives Bitcoin sentiment, why social media exaggerates fear, and why conviction is the most underrated investing skill. They compare Bitcoiners to gold and commodities investors, discuss why holding is harder than buying, and explore Bitcoin’s role as a long-term escape from broken monetary incentives.
