About this episode

Three Bitcoin Boomers share their insights and experiences at BitBlockBoom 2026, focusing on lessons for younger generations.

Three Bitcoin Boomers, one stage, no script. Recorded live at BitBlockBoom 2026 in Fort Worth on April 11. Adam O'Brien of Bitcoin Well sits down with Lawrence Lepard, Bob Burnett of Barefoot Mining, and George Bodine for an hour of honest talk aimed at the millennials and Gen Z in the room. What you'll hear: What each of them wishes they knew in their 30s, and what their wives and kids actually remember about the decisions they made along the way. Larry on pattern recognition, why he sold Microsoft too early, and why he won't make that same mistake with Bitcoin. Bob on the 60 day retirement that didn't take, why purpose comes after financial independence, and the real reason he keeps showing up. George on the Chisholm Trail, why you can't print cattle, and what the boomers learned about hard assets that millennials are about to relearn the hard way. The compound math on Bitcoin returns and why leverage keeps killing young Bitcoiners. Why Larry stopped giving people his book and started handing out The Mandibles instead. Paper Bitcoin, the GSIB that's going to get blown up, and what George says is the only real defense. Subscribe to BTC_Boomers for the full long form podcast…
