TD₿: The Art of Earning Trust | How To Sell Bitcoin Ep. 1 - (a Swan original video series) with Steven Lubka
TL;DR: Wealthy investors are turning to Bitcoin as a hedge against inflation, currency debasement, and systemic risk. Private wealth teams are focusing less on sales tactics and more on building trust
Hey Bitcoiners,
In the debut episode of How to Sell Bitcoin, we talk how global capital is waking up to Bitcoin—and why high-net-worth individuals are increasingly allocating multi-million dollar positions. Steven emphasizes that selling Bitcoin to the ultra-wealthy is not about slick sales tactics or memorized scripts.
It's about deep understanding, first-principles thinking, and most importantly, trust.
Unlike traditional financial advisors pushing products, successful Bitcoin advisors act in their clients' best interests—even if that means advising against a transaction. Authenticity and integrity, not persuasion, are the foundation for building long-term relationships with serious capital allocators.
The evolution of Swan from a simple gifting platform to a full-fledged Bitcoin brokerage with a private wealth division, spurred by growing demand from high-net-worth clients. There’s no technique to replace true trustworthiness—and that Bitcoin itself, as a politically neutral, digitally native store of value, is what ultimately sells the vision.
