Bitcoin - We’re Still Early with American HODL

[@dijayus4710]

It's so great to have someone as positive, analytical, and thoughtful as American HODL in the bitcoin space.

[@abrahamnorthhampton3327]

One of my favorite things about this podcast is listening to Peter talk about his hometown, how proud he is of it, and how much he wants to do to for his town and the citizens. This resonates with me, living in a big city but ready to return to my own Bedford (in America) to be close to family and friends, and to help maintain the town's vitality.

[@christinewillis7545]

You have no idea how much comfort and admiration you inspire Peter. You help me NOT to panic, especially with Wall St and RWA wreaking havoc in the Bitcoin/crypto world. The impact you have in putting Bedford on the map and sharing it with your guests and us through your podcasts makes me want to try something like that in my little bubble. Good work great guest.

[@MM32487]

Wasn’t expecting it, but this was the best banter about Ordinals i’ve heard to this day.

Thanks for sharing this conversation, keep them coming!

First time I've heard American Hodl speak. Great stuff Way more humble, reasoned, intellectual, broad thinker than BritishHodl who won't leave my feeds 😂❤

[@derekjohnson77]

BritishHODL always seems to be talking to the viewers like we're dogs that shit on his living room carpet :)

[@keithqueen]

Yes! American HODL to get me fired up

[@organic723]

If this fired you up… You probably haven’t been woken from your coma yet, and this is just another dream.

[@DrBrandonSchultz]

I loved the range of topics covered in this podcast! Very thought provoking. Thank you!

[@dylanhaynes275]

Great Show from Pete and the WBD team as always ! Have to say that American Hodl comes across as quite ignorant with his comments about Europe, the US and freedom of speech only being a thing in the US. Felt like Peter wanted to move on from those topics and avoid pushing back, maybe because he didn't want to offend American Hodl.

[@egidijusb1501]

What do you expect from a guy that has never left the US? I can't imagine being this rich and not wanting to experience the world. Typical American living in his bubble.

[@slop123456789]

As someone who's travelled the world extensively including the US, America felt far from the freest country I've visited. The food system is poisoned and made me gain weight from just a few weeks of living there, there's a huge inter-generationally ghettoised population who lack even the most basic freedoms such as clean drinking water, decent food, education, etc., the economic and political systems are much more predatory and unfair than most other developed countries and you can really notice it. Contemporary America is less and less "exceptional" in the ways HODL thinks it is (his opinion is not worth much on this anyway given he's never left the country), however it does rank number one in obesity, deaths of despair, fentanyl usage, incarceration, gun violence, not exactly things I'd be thumping my chest about.

[@cryptoengineer9930]

I bought Bitcoin at 71K and thought this is very reasonable because it's going way higher than that in the future. It's going to be worth millions in the future, so the price now means nothing.

[@jc10907Sealy]

Agree. Same for me.

AM HODL!! str8 Gangsta!! Danny's never used VR bcuz he's actually plugged into our simulation trying to help us and if he put on a VR headset it would just be VR inside of VR... so redundant and predictably boring... Danny engineers audio for WBD in-between naps... Pimpmode engaged

Dude says "I lost that bet because the election was rigged" and took a giant shit on the credibility that was lent to him the last hour. Peter was great though.

[@kleinbottled79]

I loved this episode. First encounter with American Hodl and hopefully not the last.

[@acoustonaut780]

Imagine being rich beyond your wildest dreams, but having to go to Bedford to help out a friend 😉 Great discussion!

[@JR-gj3fx]

Good interview & guest. But the USA though big, is not a free country. We’ve thrown our rights away for a bureaucratic & surveillance state.

[@johnhabern]

HODL is right..... how do we bitcoiners bring more value to our communities that govt?

[@flowwesterly6136]

You start up bitcoin backed business in that community and create a Hub Because of the way bitcoin works, that spread and brings wealth and prosperity to every sector of that community.

[@zootsoot2006]

Love Americans talking like they're the only people with freedom of speech, democracy, and guns. Just so insulated.

[@JL-cn6nh]

How can a country so large , with massive amount of folks from all over this Globe , be "insulated" ? Maybe you should reflect on that a bit ?

[@JoshuaSchultz]

It's always a must watch when HODL show's up.

[@bbones3318]

Nice. Love hearing about the Bitcoin grants for Bedford. Good job mate. More of that.

[@pvincent6984]

Sorry to ask but new guy here. Watch a bunch of the streams, love! But are there any that aren’t bullish? Any where “what if this happens”? Thank guys

[@bujin5455]

1:09:10. I'm bullish AF, but American HODL is just dumb with this comment. We have a handful of months of data, so what it's been very consistent? It's called pent up demand. The question is, will the demand still be constant after the pent up demand has been flushed through the system, and the price has risen a multiple? We don't know, and the fact it's been consistent for a few months since the launch means NOTHING.

[@VamosViverFora]

Suckermountain is now taking sunbath, training jiu-jitsu and probably became carnivore. Yesterday he man up denounced the obvious: meta was forced by the US government to censor people. That’s a huge change for a former alien. 😂

Came to hear an interview with American Hodl. Left with my respect for Peter McCormack at an ATH.

[@primeix]

I felt like I was getting a deal when I bought at $250 it had already did a run to $1k I was like it will retest!

Soloway is a swing trader. He is actually bullish on bitcoin long term. He just shorting it for short term trades.

[@IVIagicful]

Great show, but cmon, teach him about European culture... Montana and Florida different in culture LOL like in the type of beer they prefer maybe.

[@MrTrda]

Pretty sure he was joking…. I hope anyways 😂

[@kleinbottled79]

"The fix could be as bad, or worse than the problem." This was my thought on the ordinal situation as well. It has also basically died down on it's own - as is generally the case with fads in crypto. Not worried about the big players coming in either. a) It was never the plan to try to stop them as evidenced by the compete lack of any requisite mechanism on any level. As in, permissionless. b) You don't change bitcoin, bitcoin changes you.

[@jshagenow]

Speaking of the ETF inflows…500 million $ at 70k btc is an order of magnitude more btc than 500 million $ at 250k btc. Gotta factor that in-that $ value has to keep growing with the btc value in order to move the needle

HODL is such a lad

[@slop123456789]

I really get sick of HODL's nationalist chest thumping. There's a big world outside of your little American bubble and you could learn a lot from it if you approached it with humility and an open mind.

[@MothershipVR]

[@captainsmirk6901]

A lot of people are fine with gambling, but I don’t think rational people are fine with gambling with what they gamble with. Gambling your money away isn't the same as gambling with your money's functionality. The unforseen consequences of that could be disastrous.

[@TurboTaper]

Great listen. I suggest you run for Mayor. BTC maxis need to run this shit

[@RyanVoelkel]

So American Hodl has around ~435 Bitcoin. Not bad

[@user-yq1rc6or9x]

How do you know?

[@Garce227]

Great for Bedford🎉

[@b_tang]

Isn't this the guy that was on the ZDoggMD podcast?

[@fsailer]

The biggest problem I have identified around this conversation around Bitcoin is that there is a strong (or strong enough) demand to have use cases operating fully secure and decentralised, yet it appears, so far, to be near as impossible to reproduce. Hence this creates a demand signal to leverage the unicorn (so to speak) network that is already exists.

[@Hobozakki]

American HODL, when you are talking about Bitcoin epochs towards the end of the video, how are you defining an epoch? You're not defining it as a halving cycle are you? Just want to clarify, thank you!

[@MattD86]

By his math on the MSTR position, that implies he has roughly 40 bitcoins. I always thought he had way way more than that

[@TheBitcoinRevolution]

He may have let his position slip. I made it ~ 220, non? 68k / $300 = 226 x 1700 = 385333 which is 2.5% of his portfolio so around $15m? 👀

[@egidijusb1501]

Your math is way off. It's in the range of 300-350 by my calculations

[@MattD86]

@@TheBitcoinRevolution oh I thought he meant the $68K represented 2.5% of his CURRENT portfolio … didn’t hear him mention his $300/share entry point on MSTR

[@TheBitcoinRevolution]

@@MattD86 that was my assumption as he jumped in when MS launched its strategy. I’m unsure which one he meant eg when MS first did its debt offerings or when it moved to selling shares so I made up a ballpark figure for share price of $300. It could be less or more to be fair.
