  • 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. 

Schiff on Bitcoin: A “Collectible Token” Valued by Belief, Not Intrinsic Attribute

Per Schiff’s definition, Bitcoin is a collectible token with no unique value. The analyst thinks that Bitcoin users can deploy the crypto token for trading involving buying, selling, and storing Bitcoin. He said Bitcoin gains value from users’ beliefs, other than any intrinsic attribute.
