  • Peter Schiff reiterates Bitcoin (BTC) is not money but a “collectible token” with no intrinsic value.
  • Schiff argues Bitcoin’s value stems from user belief, not fundamental attributes, unlike gold.
  • Despite BTC’s growth (now $108,899), Schiff believes it has no sustainable future as money.

Well-known American stockbroker Peter Schiff is not backing down from his stance: Bitcoin (BTC), he insists, is not money. A long-time Bitcoin critic, Schiff has consistently argued that the cryptocurrency lacks the fundamental qualities needed to function as actual money.

In a recent podcast, the renowned financial analyst maintained his opinion about Bitcoin. According to Schiff, Bitcoin has other qualities and is suitable for purposes other than money.
