What if you could trade like Wall Street without being chained to your screen? In a world where financial freedom often feels out of reach, Tilman Holloway is proving that with the right mindset and the right tools, anyone can level the playing field.
Chris Larsen sits down with Tilman Holloway, a former Division 1 football player turned crypto entrepreneur, to explore a fascinating journey from athletics to automated trading and beyond. Tilman shares how his early experiences growing up homeschooled in Colorado and competing at the University of Texas shaped his understanding of leadership, discipline, and the power of working as a team. These lessons laid the groundwork for his transition into finance and eventually led him to found Arch Public, a company focused on democratizing access to algorithmic trading tools for cryptocurrency investors.
The conversation dives deep into how Tilman’s experience during the 2008 financial crisis influenced his discovery of Bitcoin. After running a successful demolition company, he watched it falter under the weight of the economic collapse and predatory lending practices. That experience opened his eyes to the problems with traditional finance and made him receptive to Bitcoin’s promise of decentralization, transparency, and self-sovereignty. He explains how Bitcoin provides a level financial playing field by allowing anyone with internet access to participate, without needing permission from banks or institutions.
Chris and Tilman also talk about the launch of Arch Public and how its trading software removes emotion from investing by enabling rule-based strategies. Tilman explains how everyday investors can now use automation to execute complex trades based on data-driven criteria, similar to what hedge funds and institutional investors have had access to for years. What makes Arch Public unique is that it puts control in the hands of the user. You can plug into major exchanges like Coinbase, Kraken, and Gemini and run algorithms that fit your specific goals, whether you’re dollar-cost averaging into Bitcoin or harvesting profits from market volatility.
One of the most exciting parts of the episode is the discussion about Tilman’s new real estate fund. The fund blends two of Chris’s favorite asset classes, Bitcoin and real estate, to maximize yield and growth. By acquiring high-cash-flowing properties and using their revenue to accumulate Bitcoin in a treasury strategy, the fund provides a hedge against inflation and a long-term growth vehicle. Tilman believes Bitcoin is the ideal treasury asset and explains how historical analysis shows that allocating even a small percentage of capital to Bitcoin can offset the effects of inflation entirely.
This episode is a powerful mix of life experience, investing insight, and practical tools. Tilman’s story reminds us that resilience and curiosity can lead to incredible breakthroughs. Whether you’re an athlete, a new investor, or someone looking to take control of your financial future, Episode 281 is a must-listen.
