Economist Peter Schiff has launched a strong critique against President-elect Trump’s Bitcoin reserve ambitions, warning that a large BTC reserve could trigger a dollar collapse. Schiff’s remarks come as Congress debates the feasibility of Trump’s bold Bitcoin strategy.
Peter Schiff’s Long-standing Bitcoin Skepticism
Financial expert Peter Schiff has long voiced his disapproval of Bitcoin's (BTC) status as an investment vehicle. The industry may have ignored his warnings, but it hasn't stopped the teasing.
According to Peter Schiff, the US government may purchase further Bitcoin if it sets a reserve and purchases 1 million BTC, Coingape shares.
Many early investors will become millionaires or billionaires when the price of the coin reaches new heights, according to his analysis. These investors may decide to sell their coins and pay out their earnings from the years if this movement goes through.
The US government's holdings of Bitcoin will plummet as a result, as pointed out by the Bitcoin skeptic.
Concerns Over Dollar Devaluation and Bitcoin’s Stability
To avoid looking foolish, the government might generate money and use it to purchase additional Bitcoin, keeping the price stable.
Since Bitcoin is not yet able to adequately protect the value of the dollar, this cannot continue, as pointed out by Schiff. If this turns out to be true, he thinks the US dollar might take a major hit. On the other hand, he mentioned that Bitcoin's price would eventually fall.
After Senator Cynthia Lummis published a bill proposing a Bitcoin reserve, the idea began to gain steam in the halls of Congress. Many are looking forward to President-elect Trump's ambitions for Bitcoin, as he has reinforced them.
Congress Shows Interest as Trump Eyes Bitcoin Reserve
Other prominent figures in the sector hold different opinions than Peter Schiff's negative one about a Bitcoin reserve. Those in favor of the change think the leading cryptocurrency has the necessary technology to be classified as a store of value.
Coin demand has been on the rise, driven in part by bullish accumulation by MicroStrategy, which has contributed to the coin's gradual but steady ascent.
Gold has been around for a long time, and Peter Schiff thinks it's a solid investment. He claimed that the reserve could never reach the heights advocated by figures like RFK Jr., even if Trump follows through on his pledge to build one.
Bitcoin Price Surges, Fueling Reserve Growth in Nations like Bhutan
The skyrocketing price of Bitcoin, however, has caused several countries' reserves to rise past $1 billion. One such country is Bhutan. The price of Bitcoin has risen 5.73 percent in the last 24 hours, reaching a new All-Time High (ATH) at $85,495.18 as of this writing.
