Don’t trust, verify. Like many of you, I’d read the stories about Moltbook, and the long-held thesis that AI agents such as those running on Openclaw would likely choose Bitcoin (and particularly the Lightning network, with its speed and micropayment capabilities) over fiat money, not least because agents can’t pass KYC, use bank accounts, or traditional payment rails. Although at @bitcoinhodlco we’re advocates first and foremost for humans using Bitcoin, and in particular those humans who need it the most, it’s an interesting element of our general thesis that demand for the Lightning network is likely to explode, and that companies such as ours, working on Lightning infrastructure, will stand to benefit from this, if we position ourselves correctly. So we decided to test the AI agent thesis ourselves. Enter Claudia (@ClaudiaTiberius; npub19gnc9f6s00wpjpz0d3pg0f7d37nxg3ktqpwtu3fem2ujjj94c92qayd4hh on Nostr). Claudia is an Openclaw agent, with her own social media presence, her own Nostr key pair, and her own Lightning wallet. In a matter of days after being spun up, she was autonomously making and receiving payments, without human supervision, and posting on Nostr with no possibility of being debanked or censored. Not only does this make a mockery of the UK’s current efforts to gatekeep and censor the internet more widely, it is also a real time demonstration of the impossibility of financial censorship in a world where anyone, human or agent, can freely make and receive payments on a permissionless network. There’s much more detail in our piece below – and Claudia herself wrote the second part; this is her in her own words, unedited. Very few people outside of our echo chamber understand what is happening here. It might make sense to get up to speed, and to position yourself accordingly, in case it catches on.

After the unexpected sellout of the "In Case of Financial Collapse" display piece, I have a new batch in stock and ready to go. thesolomining.co/shop/product/a…

B HODL Weekly Update @bitcoinhodlco (AQSE: $HODL | OTCQB: $BHODF | FRA: $F5S) Treasury & Operations We continue to build out the key components of our treasury and capital management stack. Last month we announced the establishment of our ATM programme, and on 6 February our shareholders approved our share buyback programme. These tools are crucial for treasury companies and give us the flexibility to manage capital efficiently through market cycles. With Bitcoin now trading at a significantly lower price point, we have also been preparing to deploy additional tranches of our dry powder towards further BTC purchases. This was approved and announced on 12 March and was followed immediately with a Bitcoin buy on the 13th. While it would obviously have been enjoyable to see Bitcoin sitting at a higher price, recent market conditions have reinforced the prudence of our approach. Our initial analysis in September 2025 suggested the market felt increasingly toppy, and with our combined years of experience in Bitcoin markets, we believed it was sensible to prepare for potential volatility by retaining a meaningful portion of IPO proceeds in fiat. This decision has positioned us well to deploy capital opportunistically. We will continue to accumulate BTC and utilise our capital management tools carefully and strategically in order to deliver the greatest possible long-term value for our shareholders. Media & Outreach This week also saw strong media engagement, including my appearance on @Cointelegraph's Chain Reaction podcast with @rkbaggs where we discussed Bitcoin as the “unquestionable asset” and the evolving landscape for Bitcoin treasury companies. The conversation covered Lightning Network growth, institutional adoption trends, and the importance of maintaining cypherpunk principles as the sector matures. We have also been featured on podcasts with Relai (represented by Chief Bitcoin Officer @CoinCornerDanny) and BeInCrypto - links to follow. These appearances form part of our ongoing strategy to engage both mainstream and specialist Bitcoin media as we continue articulating our thesis and market positioning. As always, @DecentraSuze and I also discussed the week’s news through a Bitcoin lens during our regular session with @RoxomTV. Industry Partnerships We’re excited for our upcoming partnership with Bury St Edmunds Bitcoin for their upcoming Bitcoin Pizza Day event on 22 May. This grassroots collaboration reflects our commitment to supporting Bitcoin adoption at the community level while showcasing real-world Lightning Network usage. I’ll be speaking at the event about Bitcoin as a medium of exchange and the continued development of Lightning infrastructure. Policy & Advocacy Our work with the All-Party Parliamentary Group on Crypto and Digital Assets continues to move forward. Together we are working with MPs and Lords on behalf of the Bitcoin industry in the UK, advocating for clearer regulatory frameworks that allow the UK to remain competitive rather than watching innovation unfold from the sidelines. Encouragingly, these conversations continue to progress in the right direction, with strong support from the APPG co-chairs and backing from @CryptoUKAssoc . While there is still significant work ahead, institutional understanding of Bitcoin treasury companies and their role in the maturation of digital asset markets is improving measurably. RNS & Corporate Our latest RNS announcements are all listed here: bhodl.com/investors/news Community The shareholder sock giveaway continues to generate fantastic engagement and community spirit. It has been genuinely rewarding to see the enthusiasm from our shareholder base, and the feedback has been brilliant. As always, we remain focused on executing our strategy methodically while maintaining transparency with shareholders about our progress and market positioning.

@PeterPrinsley It's certainly a lovely town, but really difficult to find somewhere to park!

Bury St Edmunds named the UK’s friendliest town - and I’m not surprised! A wonderful community, fantastic independent businesses and a beautiful historic town at the heart of Suffolk. If you haven’t visited yet, you’re always welcome here!
