He clearly owns Bitcoin at this point. He has owned it for ages. He's literally hedged against it in gold so if Bitcoin goes up, as he advertises, his value goes up.

So is this the official narrative of /pmg/ now? That Peter doesn't believe fucking any of what he says regarding bitcoin, not even that gold is a better investment, and is just kiking over his stupid followers like the anons of /pmg/? I keep noticing this line of thinking in your post come up... Surely some of the /pmg/ anons come out of their containment thread every once in awhile and comment on the number one gold bug who has influenced so many to go into gold over bitcoin? So Peter doesn't believe a word of his own spiel, and so it's blatantly obvious even to him (one of the biggest public gold bugs) that bitcoin is a better investment.

You can see people piling onto bitcoin in a mania, but I along with many other people do not see the historical trend lines to say it is worth holding onto. Especially when gold was tested during the GFC when the Eurodoller system died, and when the dot com bubble popped. You have the covid crisis hit, but it did not go as big as those two. You can say the debacement of world currencies at the moment will let the bitcoin be undervalued. However, we did not see it during a reset event which gold has done multiple times. You can mention venezuela, but that is not a major player on the GLD or international geopolitics. The last point it the fact that the only store of value it has in on block chain which is in direct competition with hash graph. The programmers who mentioned bitcoin said that once you have over 50-60% of all the computing for mining bitcoin in one user, then you can make up bitcoin and no one will notice.

TLDR, unless your side addresses the lack of history with crisis, hashgraph, store of value, tether, and all. I can say a short to mid term bull on it, but long term bearish outlook which does not bode well for me when silver and gold is more undervalued than ever,

Peter Schiff is controlled opposition. He will join the bitcoin crowd when tptb need him to generate a groundswell of support for a scam that will herd people away from a solution that will actually work to escape the current monetary system, namely PMs. It looks like that time has come. Obviously a lot of people are getting interested in alternatives to stonks, bonds, dollars, etc. Just look at how many celebrities are suddenly talking about Bitcoin. "One word: Bitcoin" is the new cliche for grug brain retarded normie masses to follow, and Peter Schiff endorsing Bitcoin when he used to staunchly oppose it and support gold/silver will make PMs look especially bad because of how autistically he defended it even when his bubble theory of economic collapse has failed to pan out multiple times.

This is another brainlet cope. If the market was right there would be no opportunities to make profit. It is because the market is so often priced stupidly that you can actually make serious money by buying what is undervalued and selling when it becomes overvalued. This obviously doesn't apply to crypto because as a pump and dump or ponzi investment it is simply government by one rule: are there buyers after you have bought?

If Schiff really, truly were so smart; why is it he was unable to read the market? It's pure, unadulterated cope on his part. I dgaf if he has 70M usd, doesn't make him infallible.
You might claim he's held BTC all along, but it shouldn't exclude him from criticism. He was either fantastically wrong about BTC, or he's a total cunt who sold out all his followers. You choose.
