Almost no one talks about boredom. In this episode, American HODL returns to Bitcoin for Millennials to explain why the hardest part of hodling isn’t volatility — it’s time. We explore why the biggest threat to your Bitcoin stack isn’t panic-selling or regulation, but the quiet erosion of conviction that happens when nothing seems to move. Topics we cover:Why this bull market feels slow, stable, and strangely boringHow boredom and greed destroy most Bitcoin holdersThe psychology of conviction and long-term thinkingBitcoin as “engineered truth” and the dissolving force of fiatWhy incentives, not ideology, make Bitcoin unstoppableThe “Paperclip Maximizer” theory: how Bitcoin turns the world into BitcoinWhy even BlackRock and nation-states will eventually bend to its rulesThis is a raw, high-signal conversation about what it really takes to hold through the monetization of truth.
