Glen Goodman is the popular face of crypto and investing, well-known for his frequent appearances on BBC TV, LBC and Bloomberg. The bestselling author of The Crypto Trader is sought after for his ability to explain crypto and financial markets in an accessible and engaging manner.
Formerly a Business Correspondent for BBC and ITV News, Glen interviewed leaders including Boris Johnson, David Cameron, and Theresa May, as well as Hollywood A-listers like Leonardo DiCaprio and Will Smith.
Back then, trading was his side hustle, but in 2008, Glen hit the headlines when he turned a £3,000 trade into £100,000 by anticipating the great financial crash — a story he later shared in The Times.
Glen quit his job to trade full-time, and he soon became the most followed trader in the world on social media, as he led the way in explaining Bitcoin and the emerging crypto industry.
He recently served as an Expert Witness in a major drug smuggling case, analysing the defendant’s crypto trading records and explaining them to the jury. He’s also a contributing cryptocurrency expert for the London School of Economics.
Pan Macmillan recently published the second edition of The Crypto Trader, an international bestseller translated into multiple languages.
As a speaker, Glen blends deep expertise with storytelling flair. He delivers big-picture insights on the forces reshaping money, technology, and global markets. He explores how crypto, AI, and financial innovation intersect, what they mean for businesses and individuals, and how to separate hype from genuine opportunity.
Audiences leave with not only practical lessons, but also a clearer vision of where finance and technology are heading — and how they can adapt and thrive.
